Hi to you all at the H.A.M.B.
like some others Iv,e been checking out the site for some time and have found the information and chat great,my son and I are building a 27 T coupe on a original A chassis with an A four banger and early hydraulic brakes,I have been looking for information on building up the four banger and looks like Iv,e found the right place and right people to talk with, here in Australia we don,t have a very big following for the four banger so parts and information are not readily available,although the rod scene here is definately growing fast .
hope to talk more soon when I find my way around a bit more.
regards Doesy

Welcome doesy, but where in oz are you? Dave at oldtin has some knowledge on the bangers and a guy here in Vic was casting up cranks not long ago. He's from Tooradin area, Greame can't remember his last name at the minute.

Would be good to see some pics...

although I think he was looking at selling the pattern.

Some of the foreverfour guys bought a crank or two, and they were going to put it through its paces.

Anyway welcome aboard. Hang on its going to be great ride.
