Hey all

I'm considering rebuilding my Grey at some point.
I found this kit - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/HOLDEN-138-G ... _500wt_922

Whats your opinion of the price? Reasonable?

Cheers

Sounds reasonable to me, the only thing I wouldn't use is the fibre timing gears, get yourself a steel set, Trev .

then dont forget to add in the extra cost for the
crank grind
bore
hot tank
head work / valves
ect ect
doing it individually can cost a heap more, get your prices of what required and compare against a reconditioner doing the whole job.
and shop around, to get the valves reseated for the chev motor i was quoted from $400 to $800

Of coarse you will need the machining done.
I had mine cleaned, machined, balanced with everything in that add (except timing gears) for about $1600.
The head was fully recoed with bigger valves and some porting for $915.

Gday,Ive dealt with these guys and found them to be very helpfull and they sell quality parts ,some engine shop love the old stuff while others hate them ,find someone youre happy with and whose keen to do the job and has experience with the old greys. Cheers Gary
