Trent-KE30

Gee thanks all for the pics! I got it all done, now just the throttle cable bit. KE20Rolla Could you get some pics specifically of your throttle cable arrangement?, I am trying to adapt the original kinda design off the STD downdraft carb. thanks guys! :dance:

Oh yeah I know what you mean R, Did you use a redline linkage kit? part number 42-2562? Thanks mate

That's how far I've got, I just need some pics of the back linkage, as i think there was some bits missing out my linkage kit as it was already open when i got it :dance: Cheers Trentuss

Wow thanks KE20 rolla thats exactly what I needed! Could you get on of the back carby linkage area? Thanks

Thanks man I done alot now and its starting to take shape, one question when i tighten up the nut on the back carby it locks the carby? hmm, il post piccies of mine when I'm done. Thanks Trent

Hey guys i have searched and searched and found some valuable information, I printed out a range of pictures of the linkages that other people have done eg Kangaroosa One, but am still gobsmacked as too how to set up certain parts of it, so I'm mainly after anyone with DELLORTO's on there K motor to send me certain pics and stuff, Any help much appreciated! Thankyou Trent [email protected]

I would also check the clutch, This happened to my brothers 4K KE35 it would rev and you could shift all the gears but nothing, pulled the box off and the clutch center had broken off from around the clutch face.. Cheers

Yes it does, but i swapped mine to a kill switch:) I could just relocate it to the other demister. Cheers JiP

Ah Cheers for that Jip And Scotty :-) I thought yu may have to remove everything. Wiring and all that similiar?

Ah okay, Jip are you swapping the original dash over? or putting the late model one in? Cheers Man

Yeah I was just wondering because I have a overrated late model dash top laying around, and the one on my early one is buggered. Sammo, so yeah it was a big job getting it out? you have to take heater, fan controls etc out? Cheers Guys

Hey guys as title suggests just wondering wither a late model KE30/KE55 silver dash would fit the earlier ones? And are the earlier ones all in one, like dash top and all? Cheers Trent

I hav a 3K engine I'm building, i bored it out 3.5mm and I'm using TX3 Turbo pistons with a suckthru SC14 setup (10psi) with a 1 and 3/4 SU etc. I work at a decent engine building shop, and did all the machining myself, you'd be surprised how thick 3K bores are before you hit water. Cheers Trentuss

f@$k i love you haha

I got that one, I should hav specified I'm after the engine bay one, i thought that was the only one they had (sorry noob to *E70's been around 30's and 55's too long lol), cheers 7shades.

Hey guys, I got a free KE70 last weekend and I'm trying to get it running, someone has flogged all the fuses out of it and its missing the cover, was wondering if someone had a pic of the cover so i know which fuses are which? I would look it up in the gregorys but it turns out i have lost my KE70 one :y:. Cheers Trent

Cheers Red :lolcry:

Hey guys building a tough little 4K in my run around every day KE55, got the bottem end done I have a spare 3K cam lying around i want to send away and get regrind, will it fit my 4K? are they identical? Cheers Trent

I believe the steering wheel is a factory KE35 Item, Cause my brothers KE35 has the same wheel!, and yes that's a SC14 charger I'm building a pretty wild 3K-Z at work. 8|

Cheers JiP!, Your rolla's are looking sweet! Well plans are to just keep it nice daily, as i am restoring my red KE30. Maybe :evil: Test Fitting a Few weeks ago lol. Nah its not going on this one i was just checking clearances etc. its going on my red KE30 that I'm rebuilding ground up, with a very unique 3K which I'm keeping under wraps. :( Progress Shot of Red KE30

Cheers Fusion!, Yeah I get alot of comments about the wheels! its a real headturner! As you can see its come a long way! Old school Rolla's Fo lyfe I say! :evil:
