Was 105 here on Friday, a high of 85 on Saturday, and an overnight low of 60 :) Right now it's a very pleasant 75

The part number in the book is 3423562, but that wont be the casting number. I have 2 Pacers, so I may have to pull a valve cover to find the casting number.

Yes, the VF Pacer had the same cam as the 160hp, more compression, and a larger exhaust. The head was a different part number to the 145 hp and the 160 hp. The pistons are the same part number for all.

If that's going on where you live, you need to move

BB Dave, you are a good bloke.

The Worlds Fastest Indian does it for me. Ok, its a bike movie, but it's about the same stuff. The bloke made his own pistons!

I know it's last 3 owners Ken, and I'm pretty sure you do too.

Wouldn't mind a nice '64 Imperial

I know that car...

18 is drinking age here, step-daughter and I can now go for beer on a Sunday afternoon:D

About 25 years ago a friend turbo'd a Holden 202 six. It used the standard radiator and was fine. You would only be in boost for 10 or 15 seconds at a time, and the other times it was like running a stock engine.

The Valiant Regal in my avatar was painted (sprayed) in cheap acrylic in 2004, didn't even use primer. Total cost was about $350. It's shabby now, but is in the weather most of the time, and doesn't really get looked after. I am going to paint it again soon, will do the dings a bit better...
