    So happy to see that it’s NOT another ridiculous LS conversion!
    Very nice.

    That' very appropriate you chose a 253 as Holden started development of the V8's in 1964.

      I'm still shocked how good it sounds. I always thought they were a thong slapper

      @@ProShop1 Never underestimate a good 253. I had a worked one in a L32 SLR back in the 90's. They love a bit of compression, remember they are basically a 308 with smaller pistons and fairly low compression, get that compression up, stick on a decent exhaust and carb , tickle the ports and a small bump stick and they really get up and go. I got into a few arguments with my SLR and had to lift the bonnet a few times to prove it was a 253. I'm going to put a stroked 253 in my 65 HD ute, stroked out to 5 litres...!!!

    Watching your video brings back many memories.
    Back in the day, I had an
    EH Premier hydramatic and I new a man that had an EH that was raced as a hill climber.
    Triple SU carbs.
    What a beast it was.
