funny you should say that Rubin, but it's under the bench at the old mans place, been there since i was an apprentice, HP's had thick bores and a steel crank, so they were "the ducks guts.."

there some A series stuff under there but i forget whats there, nothing extra good... but who knows..lol

the HR X2 was just a 186 like all the others with the X2 spec upgrades. The 179HP was an EH thing. All this holden 6 talk makes me want to chop the firewall out of the van and hunt down a holden 6 banger.

Why doesent it surprise me that you have an HR X2 block lying about at your house Dundee....

Ill admit I had a 202 and a 186 that I struggled to give away at one stage.

nope not a torry, a 1979 gemini coupe. its mid-mounted with a 186 block (they r sposed to be stronger in the webbing but im a datto man not a holden man so i wouldnt know) with a 202 crank, duggan head, 6 throttle body fuel injection, controled by a motec. makes 295hp at the wheels on vp110 race fuel. ohh so much fun to drive in the 8 laps i got to drive it for
sssute. yeah somebody had to say it, but do u want another one, coz its got a crack all the way down the block down the centre of no 4 cylinder lol

do u mean HD X2 motor?

HP block (179 under my bench, with both the inlet and split exhaust manifolds) had it for about 20 yrs..lol

Is your sports sedan an lj-lc mate? if so more info please:D

Got a mate with holdens galore (fanatic maybe) will check for ya and reply over the weekend your about 6-7 hours from me closer than the boat anchor offered above .

Yep I have one, but it has 3 meters of chain and 30 meters of rope attached to it.


Someone had to say it.

hi guys, ive cracked the block in my new sports sedan(not happy jan, it lasted 8 laps of oran park gp) so i need a 186 holden 6 cylinder block. if anybody knows of any or has any in the general area of the central west. please let me know.
cheers kurt
