I thought I'd read turbo...After having read accounting literature for the last 2 bloody hours my eyes are shagged :(

12A would be cool nonetheless :)

Yep, 3 times bodyweight is maximum engine size....

12A is considered a 2.4 litre by RTA standards. . . . :x

This is not as stupid as it sounds. The engineer that did mine just asked me to get it wieghed at truck wiegh bridge and bring him the ticket for it. So i just drove it on the scales, went to the booth told the guy the chassis number and he printed it off for me for $25.

Then went back to engineer and no problems passed. I could of had 200kg of cement in the boot and no one would know. :shock:

Haha..who you callin stupid :lol: my bush mechanic styles work..er..sometimes :lol: ;)

HSV Maloo Utes use weights in the tray over the rear wheels to help with traction when there is no load..not many places on a moke to hide 200kg's worth of whatever though..
