Holden Commodore, Insurance, Aerodynamics.

[Peter Jaramaz]

Hi Danny,

A typical "Aero" kit for an early commodore would set you back around $1000 
fitted (perhaps a little less depending on style). Theres a kit available 
thats suited for VB-VK and based on the GTS-R. Looks good on the early 
cars.

Reattaching airflow - not too clued on aerodynamics. Try talking to the kit 
manufacturers.

Peter

G'Day Peter,
Thanks for the info. You have just confirmed what I had suspected (both 
with
the engine, and the aero). What sort of prices would I be looking at for 
the
aero kits? Also, do you know of any way to "re-attach" the airflow at the
back of the roof?

What format is the attached file (REHolden)?????

getting the entire fuel system from the VK (i.e fuel tank + pump, hi
pressure lines etc). The EFI is controled by a pretty crapppy by todays
standards analog computer. You might want to get a cheap aftermarket proper
EFI computer such as a Microtec Digi (about $650 Aus). VK EFI had 
extractors
standard.
