dave V6 ek holden

[VL400]

Very tidy looking car and good conversion there

[Holden202T]

yeah i agreee, increase comp, port the heads and cam to suit and you'll be loving it!

jayme there is no throttle stop screw that i can see .. there is adjustment via cable but i have that screwed out a far as it will go and cable is still slack , maybe i can bend the stop tab a little to open butterfly .. i take it the iac will adjust the idle to the settings in the ecu

[Holden202T]

ok its not THAT easy to see, but in this picture on the left TB just to the right of the top bolt hole there is the throttle stop screw and spring.



if you have never touched it its more than likely there is a green plastic cover over it (to stop people playing with them) i normally just rip this off with pliers then off you go

also in your car i think this will be at the back of the motor on the firewall side so might not be that easy to access let alone see!

thnaks Holden202 yeah i did fiddle about there, and it seemed to be non adjustable but if it has a cap on it that may have given me the idea that it couldnt be adjusted .. and boy your right it as the back and almost impossible to get to ..

i fitted a v6 to an FB Ute i know where the TB and screw is

[ekdave1962]

yeah i followed your thread on the fbek forum .. did it make on the rd ?

[Holden202T]

well pretty much when i found drag racing and started my gemini project that was almost the end of the FB Ute, just lost interest, but i've sold it to dad (who i originally purchased the shell off years ago) and hes getting back into ... i've pretty much done all the hard work for him, hes just finishing stuff off and tidying my work so one day hopefully we'll see it finished yeah!

[ekdave1962]

well i hope you post some pics of it just the same ..

ok picked up a little t2 turbo rebuilt for $200 .. maybe i should toss that on to the vn motor for a little entertainment

[Holden202T]

T2 ? that would be a bit small ????

and yeah i will put pics up when theres a worth change
