That's a steel, you got a great deal there!

Compared to now fuckin oath, anything with a v8 is 20 grand plus now

 

[Gazza]

Only two. Fifty’s for sale on carsales, one is 44k and the other 40k

A lot better condition than mine, I could probably get 25k for mine as is. Not that I’m selling hate to think what it’s worth in another 20 years from now.

 

[benn0]

Its pretty clear they are appreciating in value and fast. They'll end up like the VL commodores. 80-100 grand for a mint one.

Spewing I didnt hold onto my VL

 

[Gazza]

Spewing I didn’t hold

literally any engineering place or even mechanics shop or engine reconditioners have the ability to press a bearing, you could go ghetto but I'm not going to go there lol

You'd have more selection from enginerring and mechanics places than I would and the few ones here are more than accomodating. One engine engineering place here, they shaved down my VL drum from the rear drum breaks to like almost nothing because the previous owner just did skids. When I went to pick it up, he said it will get you through and get you a fair way but it needs replacing with one with more meat on it..

Look on the bright side @MM2K6 you only need to do it once its whole life you own the vehicle! Lucky fcker!!

I know how to do it my fucking press I just brought to do my tail shaft with is to short to press it off

Cut it off

 

[benn0]

Do you want it pressed on or taken off?

 

[MM2K6]

Pressed off and pressed back on without breaking the ABS wheel that's pressed on in front of the bearing. So replacing rear bearing all together

 

[MM2K6]

Cut it off

I don't want to grid the axle up might make it harder to press the new one on, I was thinking

 

[MM2K6]

this is what I need to do

Shit man I've been perving on the picture, any chance you could take some more? I nearly got an XP a few year back and have always regretted it . That looks to be in really good condition and really nice don't see them like that often now!. Where did you get it from?

Ive had it since around 2000 2001 ish i paid 3k for it lol it had a 351 cleveland in it but a mate and i killed it late last year, so im putting together the 302 windsor because it fits better here is a pic of the cleveland in it. It was a tight squeeze

Nice, should turn those rear tyres nicely! Is it an XM?

Xp the old motor was a stock 351 cleveland this is a 302 windsor but ive loaded it with food shit so should habe a bit more power than the 51 but about 50 kg lighter

 

[MM2K6]

Whack the clevo heads on the windsor, the V is better on the windsor, heads better on the clevo so I heard years ago..I could be wrong, better flow and make it scream better

I had and an XD 351 clevo 4MA crank gt spec pretty much, it was awesome but handled like shit!
