stupid idea from to much time

by **lawler** » January 7th, 2010, 3:04 pm

Well this is probably not gonna end up happening but just thought you guys might get a laugh out of the idea

Well a mate of mine crashed his xr6 turbo Ute a few months ago and hes been trying to sell the motor with no luck so now hes started thinking about putting it into something else. the funny thing is hes got a vl with no motor in it sitting next to it.

And I think he has been drinking but he just jumped onto msn and started messaging me asking if I want to help put the xr6 turbo motor into the VL but he wants to keep the tiptronic

Now im not to shore if he will try this or not but I thought I might just throw it out there it could get interesting and if it goes a head ill let you guys know

why not, be something to have a laugh about when the vl boys have a look

by **Dansedgli** » January 7th, 2010, 3:12 pm

How much does he want for it all?

by **lawler** » January 7th, 2010, 5:45 pm

by **BBQBurner** » January 7th, 2010, 7:51 pm

by **LOW_XR** » January 7th, 2010, 7:55 pm

i seen some pics of a vl with this done to it but i think it was a photochop. do it. something different to all the usuall shit getting around!

by **Troutman** » January 7th, 2010, 8:02 pm

It might be a challenge to physically fit it, but I hope all goes well if he proceeds!

by **falcon4life** » January 7th, 2010, 8:44 pm

I WANT TO SEE THIS SO THE HOLDEN BOYS DONT THINK SO MUCH OF THEIR RB30's or whatever the fark they are and show em just how good an i6 4.0 is

by **bentls** » January 7th, 2010, 9:35 pm

"twincam vl" on a whole new level lol...

why bother when a rb30/26 will out perform a ford dohc anyway....

by **falcon4life** » January 7th, 2010, 9:35 pm

that so wont work unless you extend the engine bay and widen it cause from the looks of that theres probs only gunna be 4 and a half cylinders fitting in there safely

by **CaRtZ** » January 7th, 2010, 9:36 pm

nothing is impossible.... just takes time and effort.... do it then bag out the calaisturbo.com guys

or sell VL n buy cortina :cool:

by **lawler** » January 7th, 2010, 10:29 pm

Will the holden chassis be able to cope with the 4LTR? :grin:

Holden drivers will be in shock, I suppose, reliable and powerful and it's not a holden engine, on that note, has anybody tried to put a holden motor like a 3.8V6 in a VL?

how so? the are both strait 6 motors. vl/ba. i dont think it would be out by much. custom manifold, pipework ect. height would prob be the main problem. just do it to shut down everybody who says you cant...

by **falcon4life** » January 9th, 2010, 12:15 am

yer both are I6 but one is a 4.0 displacement the other is a 3.0 pretty substantial size difference but my "that so wont work" is speaking physically atm alter the bay some and yeah sure it will fit i want to see this work GO FOR GOLD!!! :good:
