sam- Posted September 7, 2011 Report Posted September 7, 2011 hey names sam I'm 19 and live in Adelaide aways loved me kexx's and now I'm kinda over ke70s and i thought id buy a ke30, bought it off a mate for $150 drove it around for a few weeks untill i blew the diff and then realized the head is also cracked as well so now iv taken out the motor and gear box, was thinking of putting a sr or ca in it but i thought id be different and go a 5L out of a vn or a 350 chev or something and before you ask no this isnt going to be a street car purely a track car but it may go on a few cruises :P so far all iv done is take out the motor started sanding and flared the guards, will be updating weekly , thanks for looking!

butler Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) i reckon I'm just gonna save up and get billet axles for a 10 bolt for mine, but i reckon just about any v8 diff will be the goods. shit, theres been some 9" around lately for real cheap aswell also, don't waste your time chuckin a carb on a 304. its a pain in the arse and not worth it. just put efi heads on a 308.

SLO-030 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 To get rid of axle tramp, Stiffen up the front the leaf pack as much as you can. Turns it into a crude 2 link setup. Drag racers trick. Quote

butler Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 I'm going tubs purely to fit 20xsomething wide on there so I look the goods when I go into bigger competitions like gazzanats and shit. Plus I like the look of skid cars with stockies several inches inside the guard. Quote
