Check out this Holden VK Commodore we just wrapped up for another one of our awesome Aussie customers. đŠđș
Brett decided it was time for some upgrades, starting with a complete 9â rear-end package from Castlemaine Rod Shop , featuring an aluminum center section and Wilwood disc brakes.
The factory transmission was shown the door and replaced with a built TH350, along with a new driveshaft and 1350-series yokes to put the power to the ground with confidence.
And before anyone asksâyes, itâs still Holden powered.
To wake it up, we topped it off with custom aluminum cylinder heads, a matching intake manifold, a new 780 carburetor, and finished everything with in-house dyno tuning.
The end result? Over 1 horsepower per cubic inch from the original Holden combo, with crisp throttle response and a whole lot more fun when the loud pedal hits the floor.
We love seeing these Australian classics make their way into our shop, and this one was no exception. Thanks again, Brett, for trusting us with the build. We canât wait to hear how it runs once youâve got some miles on it.
