There's more places in Western Sydney then the north shore area - in fact i can't think of any on the north shore..

Give Autotech a call and they might be able to help you

I think you should down grade to a six. The au1 xr8 is not really suited to a performance rebuild.

When I stopped laughing and thought about my not really suited TE50 5.6L rocket I got serious and thought of this. Last item listed a near complete factory stroker motor incl heads 5.6L needs a cam and efi setup could use your existing efi unit only done 20k's Just get someone to put it back together less than 4k you would have a not really suited to performance rocket ......lol.....

Awsome thanks, I'm not sure whether to rebuild or sell and downgrade to a six.






Sorry, I couldn't help myself. What ever happened to good old spelling and basic grammar?
