The Dodge Challenger Message Board

It looks terrific Ian!

thanx for the advise & the compliments guys im very happy with how its going even though i dont get enough time to work on it
im hoping to get the preliminary inspection thats required for imported vehicles in feburary then any further inspections can be done locally for registration
i plan to get it rego'd with the 318 then put the 440 in once its rego'd i think it will be a lot less trouble getting it licensed with a standard engine just in case the inspector is an old stick in the mud
cheers ian

Looking good Ian Good luck with the inspection.

well guys you all be happy to know that its got number plates it passed on its first inspection im in shock thats never happened to me before but im stoked now i can finally drive it whenever i like
was going to add a pic but how do you do it now?
cheers ian

Nice one Ian. Thats a compliment of the quality of your work for it to have passed 1st up.
I bet its a good feeling now that its all legal!

cheers ian

thanks for sorting out the setting JR heres a pic of it with plates on the wheels are just temporary for licencing purposes ill change them shortly
cheers ian

Worth the wait. It is looking great!

finally pulled my finger out & got started on putting the 440 stroker in ive got the old 318 out & im just going to give the engine bay a freshen up in body colour this time not just a quick shot of black that i did to get it licensed ill keep you all post as to the progress & results

Glad to see you back Ian! Was worried all the flooding took you!! How is the stroker engine??

gday guys ill get some pick as soon as im able as for the stroker eddie its had a couple of hickups my fault i didnt wait till i could afford quality bits & bought a few cheaper bits should have bought arp head bolts & the proform roller rockers are also not a good investment so ive ordered a set of hughes rockers but other than the head bolts stretching & a rocker unadjusting itself everything else was sweet when i ran it sounds as mean as cant wait to get it running properly & take it for a spin
cheers ian
