Re: Painter needed JoBurg

A bit of Trivia. Greenstone is the family name of Basil Green of Perana fame. His one son has operated in the auto biz in the Edenvale area for many years.

Re: Offenhauser / Holley

Got the intake, thanks. Will be mating it to an Edelbrock 500 running a 290 Cam, double valve springs, proper retainers etc.
Now for the proverbial "hens teeth" item. Ford 8 inch LSD anyone? Ideally around 4.11 ratio.
PM please

Intake & Carb - SOLD

Doing a bit of a clean out and came across this Edelbrock Victor Jnr intake. Part # 2975. Lo-rise, good for Chev or Ford Small Block. Also the Holley which does not have the expected part numbers for identification. P-32 stamp on the main body and, judging by the sheer size, I'm guessing 850cfm doub...
