    A friend of mine has an LX Torana with a 350 and a NOS kit. It feeds directly into the manifold.

    He also has an LX that he races in Club Cars at Mallala. Chev 350 small block dry sump, 500+hp, 4 speed super T10 PPG straight cut gears ( sounds vicious ), 9" full spool, triple plate clutch. Races against rotaries, turbo R20DET Datsuns etc.
    Usually places 1st -5th.

    umm, crisis said the car has ova 500hp, the GTHO PH3+4 had about 270-290kw, about 365-390hp, i doubt that would stand a chance
