thers little clips that hold the woodgrain on, they are pretty flimsy though, i didnt pull the woodgrain off so to speak, i just swapped the top half with the new and old trims.

Believe it or not it still has a bit more room to go lower. It smacks the gaurds a bit yeh, i could get them rolled but it wont stop the inside of the gaurds copping whacks, its def a nice ride heigh though but yeah can get quite bumpy, i'm 6 foot 5 and even though i slouch a fair bit in the car i still whacked my head on the roof once lol.

This is my email choskins@hoskins.com.au . I would love to see some more pics of yours too. Sorry to do this on your fairmont thread too mate, looks very nice! Thanks Burns Cam |

my advice would be start with a stroker kit and change the heads ( i went with AFR aluminium ) and a different manifold they dont breath to well the windsors. but when done right you can make big gains. i may be wrong but have been told two bolt mains are good for around 500hp motor but can also split the block when going to far over that. mine has its caps built down into the block and stud girdle to try and keep it together. a good old school c4 can be fitted with mods to the bell housing. lots you can do and the windsor sounds so much better than any holden motor in my books. good luck with it. very nice car
