I've been trying to find one for a Borg Warner 35 but haven't been able to locate one as yet. The tuner put me onto Gaugewworks who can fit one to the speedo cable so this is at least a work around.

I got mine (for a Jap gearbox) from Airco Auto Instruments in Marrickville. They have a website. Give them a call and see if they can supply one. I think it might be a better option than modifying the speedo cable. The only consideration would be the length of the unit and clearance with the floor.

Thanks, I agree. I will contact them and see what they have.

Maybe they have changed, I called and they didn't want to know about it.

This is a bit off topic but thought I would share anyway. Pre fitting and aligning panels on the VH charger

Image

There is going to be a fair bit of welding, filling and griding to get the door gaps any where near acceptable.

Image



This front end took a long time to get together but looking ok except for the front panel to hood alignment, the guards are NOS and I had to refit the original headlight panel which is all spot welded. Both panels are temporarily held together by self tappers so that I can pull and push the two panels into alignment.

Image



Will get back to the Ute, turbo and efi soon.

Cheers

The panel fit from the factory especially on the VH's was pretty ordinary to start with so it will make a big difference to have even gaps all round.

Yeah there was a lot of work done by the previous owner and a lot by me to get it to this stage. Still lots to go but I'm sure glad I prefit all these panels before going any further. I am in the process of assembling the doors to make sure everything fits ok but lots of small bits missing that I need to find.

Hi all, I am looking to hook up the neutral park signal from the trans to the ecu. I am not that great at auto electrical so I thought I should seek some advice so I don't cook the ecu. If the switch signal wire is putting out voltage when in park or neutral is this ok to connect to B10? The diagram shows B10 as an earth circuit. Cheers.
