Re: CARBY help

Could you use your '85 carb as a baseline for settings, or even swap them over to check if it is the carby in the first place?

Re: holden cross 6 vs falcon rtv

The awd Commodore tray back 2 door is incredibly rare, but most of it is regular commodore and the awd system is also found on the Crewman 4 door utes and the Adventure station wagon so not unobtainable. But if you do want parts availability, then Falcon/Falcon utes are at every wrecker, though some...

Re: holden cross 6 vs falcon rtv

Steve, I think Wayne is after the 2 door Holden tray back, a Cross 6 One Tonner, not the 4 door utility. These are very rare, but apart from the awd system, most of it is just everyday Commodore parts?

A friend worked for Holden on the development of the AWD, said it was a good system, I ha...

Re: Snow trip planning night - updated to not Mt Skene

I've been wanting to go up to Horseyard Flat & The Pinnacles during winter but it's only just over 1,000m there. If you want to camp in the snow, Doolans Plain (just past Arbuckle Junction on Moroka Rd) at 1,400m might be the go.

Chris, there's a new campground near Noojee called Latrobe River that's pretty good.

Hey Beng, First rule of Snow Trip is . . . Don't Panic! Your car will be fine. If you do manage to get stuck, you will be recovered no questions asked, that's why everyone has shackles and a snatch strap. Besides, if you're not getting stuck, you're not having fun.
