Thread: Rags Rover LS1 & ZF

I couldnt lift my engine any higher because of the high mount alternator, but after looking at some 4 bolt steering boxes i think i would be able to get away with just using one of them instead of the bulkier 3 bolt

well i had lots of bellhousing probs as dellows bellhousing didnt fit prop as it touched on some bolts that hold the rear main oilseal in and when i bolted the auto up it twisted it out of shape that caused all sorts of probs.so i sent it back to him but he wont do anything about it (he wants me to pay for it) so after a exchange of words he hung up on me saying he will send my twisted one back so now the car remains in bits anyone else had probs with there work?

That sounds on par for Dellows. Anything that doesn't line up is something you've done, not an issue with his dodgy casts.

well the saga continues dellow saids he posted my bellhousing back to me but it hasent showed up i think he is getting rid of the evidance. it has been 3 weeks and has no tracking number so its of to the soliciter .and the car remains in bits now im thinking t700 with lt230 it might be quicker to do this.then sell the zf and adaptorwhat do you think?

Sell the ZF and demand a refund on the adaptor

Go the t700, do you know where you can get an adapter for the lt230? i would like to do something similar myself in another truck down the track...

my dellow bell housing is all good so far, do you ahve any pics of the damaged one?

ok looks like im getting my bellhousing back so i will get it surfaced and put it back in im now thinking about supercharging the ls1 down the track so i will sell the zf conversion down the track and go a mod 4l60e.andrew from hiline 4wd does a great adaptor for the lt230 that is race proven.i will post some photos of the probs with the bellhousing soon it will just need a little ajusting with a grinder then all good

Do you know what he charges for the adapter kits?
