Hi guys, as said in the title, I am from Melbourne in Australia. I drive an 88 Trans Am GTA, these are a pretty rare car here and are a lot more respected than third gens seem to be in the USA. It is just a 305 TPI atm, but I am planning an LSx of some sort. My car has been converted to RHD, it has C5 front brakes, 18 inch wheels, a big stereo and I am currently working on a set of SFCs for it. I have done a fair bit of reading about the LSx swap, but this site is a nice small one and seems to have plenty of knowledge here too, so I will have a few questions. I look forward to chatting with a few of you on here

sound like a good ride for there.. might have to come up with custom headers.. but with Holden down your way.. you most likely have a lot of resources for any engine and aftermarket engine parts.
Keep us posted on it if you start down that path...

Another Ozzy on here cool. I'm in WA Putting an LY6/ 6L90E into a WB one tonner. I got the eng/trans combo form Bart at Hotrod revolution, it's out of a 2009 Silverado 2500HD.
