Other Mods: Chev engine covers

Build Period: Had her about 2 years.
Cost: Dunno really...lol
Contacts: 0422 820 863
Future Mods: Well the OTR, tune and exhaust are booked in at powertorque on the 28th. Once thats done I'm looking to do a full alpine stereo install. Nothing too wild, mostly concealed, but maybe a neat boot install.

In the next 2 - 3 years i'll be looking at some FI, LIKELY a blower, but i'll look at that when i've actually got the funds. I plan on keeping her for a long long time (well my wife has told me i'm keeping it...lol) so there isn't a huge rush. She is my daily so nothing will really be over the top. Just a neat cruiser is all i'm after.

I can't get into photo bucket at the moment, so i'll throw some pics up soon.

Thanks guys

How do you find the Ranjet mate? Was a good bit of kit GMM put out. Some very good R & D being done by people now for OTR's

yeah pretty stoked with it....

I originally lined up an alloy OTR, but it wouldn't fit under the bonnet with the flutes.

I've been good mates with Wayne from GMM for a few years, and he'd been raving about them for ages.I'd been talking with Wayno a few days earlier and he said they had just shipped some up to Power Torque. So I rang Mark back to ask him about them, and he said they had literally just walked in the door. So they tried it out and it fit perfect.

Mark said that with that combo and given that I need some new valve spring, he was surprised and happy with 236 rwkw, He thought I'd typically get about 10rwkw less with the alloy.

So all in all pretty happy....you looking at them?
