How's this for 'good' luck..
Tristan gave me the heads up of the where abouts of a complete set of EB GT Rims which were for sale. I took the liberty to knock off work early today to make it to the spot before 5:00pm only to find that a ute which I past on the way in was carrying the rims out.... DAMN!

Mate...I owned an Everglade EB Fairmont between 1995 and 2004...best falc I've owned .., apart from usual servicing never spent a cent....You've done well mate...What I like about the EB's is that they were the first to have the XR badge and yours is one fine example....truly ORSM and a manual too

Lol! I have a VX Ute at the moment. It's auto and it's slower than my great grandpa's Datsun 120Y running on 3 Cylinders...
It was a shame I missed out on the rims. Cheers ozmale42 for the comments!

He guys,
Today I changed my belt setup from the three belt system to the one belt system from the EF. There was a fair bit of modifying to do it... Anyway, here are the photo's: Before Dismantle:  Before Cleaning:  After Cleaning:  After Installation:  DONE!

dont i get any credit in this thread??? you need to get the belt cover from an EF/EL too. there is a bolt that goes into the thermostat housing which helps mount the shroud. its in the bag of bolts you now own :P

Good work Steve. How much better is the Serpentine setup! No more power steering belts twisting and snapping eh!
I noticed your new clear coolant bottle is going brown pretty quick too!

Good pick...it's actually bad lighting though. It's not that bad. It is by no means crystal clean like it was...but it's not too bad.
As for the new setup. I have tested it with some burnouts and it has stood the test!

Haha yeah its good to have a bit more confidence in your belt system during burnouts isn't it!
As for the coolant bottle, you need one of those PWC polished ones! Thats what I want to get but god damn their expensive!

Well...don't call me a copy cat....
I have picked up a JMM DEV-3HL Camshaft which will slip quite nicely into my Adjustable Cams Gear and give me power upto about 180rwkw*... * Figure may be a lie
