Hi Rodney,
I have a completely re-built HR front end here that I've been hanging on to. It was done for conversion in my EK, but a change of heart has seen me decide to keep the car original. I've been looking for an EJ/EH project instead but have actually just bought an XP which leaves any prospect of another old Holden in the shed a little distant.
I spent some serious money getting it all done right, so will try to work out what I think it's worth and let you know. If the price is right, I'm in Brissie - that may make it a little hard for you...I assume freight on something that heavy would be pretty hefty.
Anyway, will let you know ASAP on a price.

I've got a heap of other gear that may be of interest as well:
* 179 red engine - fully re-built, hasn't even been started yet
* Celica 5spd gearbox (great unit, best box I've driven to date) with CRS bellhousing
* Gearbox crossmember to suit Celica 5spd
* HR 3:55 diff drum to drum (needs attention as it was getting a little noisy before I pulled it out)
* EK auto tunnel from CRS
* Extractors - nothing flash but ok condition
* Twin strombergs with red engine manifold - good carbs but could use a kit put through each for better performance
* Re-cored EH radiator for 179 engine

There's also a few other bits and pieces I'd been collecting .I'm really hesitant to sell and have been hanging on to all this gear in case I change my mind about the EK, but now that I've bought the XP and have set goals for purchase of some old US tin next, I just don't realistically see me using it.

:(

Anyway, I'll work out what the HR front end is worth to me and let you know. If you're interested, great, if not I'll get it listed here and on ebay sometime soon.

Cheers, Scott
