Blacky there was a Lightning bolt with your name on it heading your way......how dare you suggest taking an angle grinder to an original 
.....lucky for you that you recanted your evil remarks
Bloody nice original old girl you've got there.
How does the old grey handle the 3.36 diff ratio?

Thanks for all the comments guys. To tell the truth I didnt realise that the front overriders were FB until you pointed it out. I will now have to hunt around for a set of EKs. Terry, the 3.36 ratio is great for cruising on the main roads and freeways although you do lose a bit of acceleration (it was never a speed machine anyway). The other advantage of the 3.36 diff is that your speedo reads in mph approx 1/2 what you are traveling in kph eg, 40mph on the speedo equates to about 80kph on the road so you dont have to bother with speedo conversions. Neat eh.
