Thankx guys thats been very helpfull. now i just hae to get my arse into gear and get started on it. Itll be good having someone with a 1200 already on the curcuit (grant). Ill be trying my hardest to get out to collingrove just depends on work so ill try and catch up with him. once again thanks for the info.

All safety equipment will be fitted later in the yaer after a nice tax return. im not looking at racing till early next year so i got pleanty of time for mods. Ill have around $1500-$2000 to spend on engine mods and carbies.

ok im close to having some money to start work on my 1200 sedan which i want to build up for hill climbs, now i just need suggestions on what engine and mods to do. i have an A12, A14 & L16. which engine would use all suggest to use and with what mods. ie heads, bore, supercharge or turbo, webers, Please help as its my first time at building up a worked engine and i only really know the basics. Thanks

I would love too. Im originally from VIC so im always looking at excuses for a quick visit however i have a friends weding that weekend sorry. Maybe next time if u still need someone. im also inexperienced but will learn and im willing to put in some extra money for the fuel ect. So message me if your in need.

Whatcha gonna build up now? Or is that classified at the moment.

What sorta power increase would you get out of that?

However if its still running smooth wouldnt that lean more towards the the rings gone. When the valves go doesnt it usually run like ####.

hi L18_B110, I just read your message about installing an L series engine into the 1200s. Just wondering what sorta power are you getting out of your set up? my problem is i to have a stanza sitting at home (L16) aswel as an A14 and im undecided on which to build up. My 1200 sedan was auto so i have the bigger tunnel however in not to good when it comes to engineering mods. What would you suggest be the best path to take as i to wish to start hill climbs here in adelaide. Thanks

Welcome. look forward to talking with you. The club is the best source of info around.

HI dave, im wanting to the exact thing however im the same boat you are. I have no idea on what mods to the internals are required. I dont even know what size turbo im gonna get. Let me know how you go so i have some idea for when it comes time to build her.
