Some beautiful welding there, especially at the flanges

.

I'm going to make the sujestion that you impliment an expansion piece in the pipe that runs under the gearbox.
Stainless has a pretty high rate of thermal expansion and that long(ish) piece of pipe could grow a fare bit and could quite quickly cause cracking of the exstactors.

Hello Larry,

Very interresting parts you´ve got.

I am interrested in info and prices on the following parts:

-Conversion parts for putting a 3,0ltr V6 12valve QV-engine in my GT1600 Junior.
-Conversion parts for putting a 3,2ltr V6 24valve GTA-engine in my GTV6 Grand Prix-87.

Do you ship to Sweden?

Thanks in advance!

Umm, wow - that is some fine work there! Did you make your own patterns or have the foundry do it? I also like the oil pan work. Very stealthy!

Shoot, if you can do that, how about cooking up some 164 door handles!

I am interested in a v6 swap and your work is impressive. If you have a price pm me and let me know. It would be nice to get all the pieces at one time to do the job. Thanks, Michael

In the next couple weeks I should have the final pricing with all machine work done for the bellhousing. I will list the price for the various parts, headers are very time intensive and I may not be able to do them nearly as fast as the other parts, may have to search out a shop who can build them for me....

As for fitting in a righthand drive car I highly doubt it. You would have to shift the engine to the left as much as possible. that is limited due to the fact the tunnel is ofst to the right to start and then it still would be a problem due to the ZF sterring box. I have only ever seen ZF's in righthand drivers.

That reminds me me stuff fits only with a burman steering box, the ZF's stick up higher and hit the head. Anyone who is interested in the kit must have or be willing to use a Burman box. I prefer them anyways, never cared for the slop off center with ZF's

Hows the car handle with the V6 conversion? Just wondering if its front heavy and if the weight ratio is really off.

Is there any updat on a conversion kit at all? I have a 3.0L 164 engine and a 67 GTV with a blown engine so extremely interested. I see there was a question about if this would work on a RHD car any word on that?

Look again. There is not a hope in hell with the starter there on a v6
the idler is smaller in every way that matters.
