I haven’t yet mate. Still just trying to get comfortable with it all and make sure everything is right, but I have a mate with a dragy that we will test out.
Stall on street waste of time and money.Manual valve body shift kit in over drive transmission.and gear vendors OK but tremec 6 speed sweet.Think what am I using the car for?Want to race change diff centre street 2.7 race 4,11
I ran 3800 convertor with over 400rwhp and 4.44 gears on the street, had an absolute ball with that setup. Sometimes the fun factor outweighs the " I need overdrive" mentality...😎
I built the car to be a compromise between the two, it’s a street/strip car. The trans has a manual valve body in it already, and the converter isn’t to bad at speed. It’s just over 3500rpm at 110km/h. The gear vendors or a Tremec are some serious coin on top of a pretty costly build not to mention it’s all ready right for space under this car. @ablokeinatroopyaustraliawide is correct the fun factor is definitely out weighing the overdrive situation. Beating a Tesla out of the lights is pretty satisfying.
Great to see it sorted
Well done guys
Woohoo,.finally a great result with this thing. 400 at the treads is plenty of funs. Well done to the whole team on making it happen
Gday, you’d almost say it pulls like a 14yo lad, top job mate, cheers
Thank you Matty. Haha I was gunna say that but you know the politically correct police are always around.
You might not be able to tell us how happy it's made you, but it shows.
Great result, had some hurdles, got past them, and here you are.
Tip top!
Wow, gotta be happy with that. Such a cool car
Love the Wagon..Please drop the front so it's level..Also a Factory type roof rack, with the rear window wind deflectors to finish it off..
I will bring the rear up, to level it before we start racing it.
excellent power from a small block congratulations on the build, have you done 0 - 100 time ?

Proud of you mate! Wagon looks, sounds and performs unreal. Thanks for taking me cruising, was so much fun!
Thank you Mel!! It’s awesome to be able to enjoy it with friends like you.

Well done mate. So good to see and happy for you.
Thank you so much mate. I can’t thank you enough for your help with it and taking all of my “loaded” questions haha.
I missed what engine is in the wagon?
It’s a 318 with a 4” crank in it mate. Solid roller, cnc ported heads, dual plane intake.
@@BackyardBuilds cool, sounds tough

I have an AP-6 sedan factory v8 been sitting in my back yard for 20 years. Should I restore it
Mate 100% get it out and fix it up. They are a very cool car and I miss my AP6 but the wagon makes up for it.
