What about using a ga16 from a pulsar. not sure if there is a rwd box for it though

Thanks guys these give me some good ideas now, i think i will make my own now. pigdog i like the way yours mounts to the chassis rail as well as the floor it looks very strong like that. is that a 200b or something like mount ? cheers again

Can anyone post pics of there gearbox mounts for putting a ca20 gearbox or similar into a ute ? im at the stage of making one up but im a bit stuck for ideas or is it best to just get a maddat one ? Cheers

Yeah mate they do.

Hey guys does anyone know the right offset to fit 17 inch wheels and also what profile tyre to use ? Any help would be great.
Cheers

Is the earth and power to the injectors good ? You may have done something bad when those wires were shorted out. Is there any fuse for the injectors ?
Maby spray a bit of aerostart into the intake and see if it fires on that if it does then its a fuel problem for sure.

Very sad to see. looked to be a smick ute too. Wish i knew about it before it got crushed. There was one at berry tip bout a year ago and also down at lake conjola too but that one had too mutch rust.

PM sent

Hey guys just a quick question in relation to stroking, does anyone know if a ca20 crankshaft will fit into a ca18 ? Ive often thought of trying this but dont know if it will be as strong as a ca18det crank.

Yep you should be able to get it to fit in there nicely and the gearstick coming out of the original hole is a bonus. its a bit too far back with a ca gearbox.
The front of the trans tunnel may need a slight massage to clear a few bits on the bellhousing. i mounted my engine close to the firewall but if you move it forward a bit it may not need this.
Also the ca turbo gears will fit into the stumpy case, just have to run the stumpy output shaft. Makes it a bit stronger cause i have heard that the stumpys are a bit weak.
Also may have to drill a hole in the side of the trans tunnel to fill the geargox up with oil or just fill it before you install it.
