Wanted to say a big thanks to Street Machine Commodores for a great article on my wagon. It's on the stands now, issue 17, page 94.

Thank you Glenn for the great article, and Mark for the photos. It was great to meet you both and a dream come true to see the wagon in a magazine :cheers:

in your for sale thread it says your looking at 500rwkw (or maybe 600?)
will an LS2 + GenT achieve that or more to it??
im assuming head/cam work aswell? you looking at stroking the LS2 at all or would the be the same issue with your 427 not being reliable on boost??

Congrats on the article. As they say it is a beast. Good to see Sonny got a mention as well. I was at Sonny's yesterday and noticed a nice new engine sitting in there. mmm Makes me jealous.

I was going to run a T-1000 but really who needs 600 rwkw? Well, maybe it would be nice, but 400+ will I hope do me fine. There are some minor mods done to the LS2, all will be revealed soon when it's under way.

It was not done on the 427 due to the Darton wet sleeves, which don't go well with boost.

Nothing like a little bit of self-promotion there mate! :stick:

Nah, but seriously, very nice spread for a very good rig, well done to all concerned and no doubt the new turbo'd donk will be a ripper.

Cheers,

Macca

Nice work Drew, haven't seen the mag yet but will grab it this week.

A certain Coupe will hopefully be making an appearance in the very same magazine ....

Thanks Nick, the coupe certainly deserves to be in there. Especially when the current mods are done :)

I can't sorry, my scanner isn't a flatbed so I can't do magazines (only single pages). There's still some copies on the shelf, saw some in the newsagent on Saturday.
