gibson · 24th September 2006, 05:40 AM

O.K will arrange pics the complete blocks are from standard vehicles all travelled approx 60-70k standard internals.

Faz Choudhury · 24th September 2006, 10:52 AM

Ok, risking sounding stupid, what car has RB30's as standard? I wasn't aware of this

Toby Broom · 24th September 2006, 11:44 AM

Holden Comadore (sic), it has an RB30DE, it's a low reving engine from a ute type car

thanks guys for clearing that up. These engines have come from running VP commodores auto and manual red line is the same as, only for an example twin turbo supra's 6000-6300rpm but the increase in torque is the advantage and the turbo boost to power range can be valuable.
