Awesome job... Super underrated engine the Ecotec and the VT's in general... They are fantastic cars and the 3.8's are pretty much bullet proof, shown when people are buying a VY and are all warned off the 3.6 Alloytech 👍 Only negative I could say is that they can be thirsty :P
Man i wish You were my brother or son to come work on my car so i can learn about suspension & motor 👍 Bet you get alot of car maintenance requests from all your family & friends hey 😜 Must be so satisfying working on cars & when you complete a job & knowing it is done well ( i imagine that would be a great buzz for you 😀 ) How long have You been a Mechanic ??? steve from Bundaberg Qld 🕺🍹

hey mate to do with the engine loom i’ve got a grey 2 pin floating around where does that go?
Where abouts in the engine roughly?
I have a vx Holden sedan I put vt motor vt wiring and ecu car won't start are the ecu between vx vt different or plug n play
Is it turning over? got fuel and Spark? check all plugs and connections, but I pretty sure vt vx are the same unless it could be a bcm issue.
easy belt... take a photo.. just tryin 2 help
Do u drain the oils first or
Not all the time, some ppl do some don't, its all personal preference.
leave it to the buck tooth ranga to do the engine mounts off camera
So.. What makes this car '2'hated'
