Talking to the guys at c.o.m.e they recon there kit will be around the $4500 area
Which I thought wasnt to bad a price.
The oil surge is only in the aussie cars also the rattle fault are all related in the fact that the pickup is at the front on commodore and the pump is at the front but on the american cars the pickup is at the back with the pipeing built inside the block so the aussie engine the oil goes from the front to the rear and then back to the front again before it reaches the pump and bearings.
The corvette sump and pickup skould fix this which is an easy fit considering there is no X member under the sump on a cobra.
