Tempting very tempting but I already have the LC and as I just brought a new family run around am flat broke. So no more toys for me at the mo. However if you want to buy my LC and fancy one which is mechanically brilliant and has a new coat of paint to die for then please feel free to deposit large amounts of hard cash in my hand. As for manual conversion I really can't be arsed. The next work on the car is the LPG conversion. However I am missing my LSD and could be tempted to fit one if I can find one.

I've spent a large amount of the kids inheritance getting the LC right. Of course I could of done it cheaper but it's much more fun down the pub when you can puff ya chest out and say "Damico stage 2 head, ported inlet manifold, Turbos rebuilt using T28 internals brand new block and pistons and god know how many other bits" Little tweak with the ECU and then I may get it on the rollers this year.

I do wonder what v6's do with all that fuel...? While on the one hand I wonder if I'd have the control to achieve sensible figures in v8, in the other I wonder why somebody who has a monaro would go back to an omega? :-\

yes if it's pride and joy then an omega would make a good winter car. Bit I'd want a one car does all. So it would be all year found for mine. They cope with that ok I hope? :-\
