NUTOUT - 6.0 LS
A blown 6.0-litre Holden Commodore built and tuned by Llama Engineering. Topped with an 8/71 BDS supercharger, it runs electronic fuel injection controlled by a Link engine-management system and sends the power through a two-speed Powerglide transmission.
SKDMRK - 6.2 LS
SKDMRK is an LS3-powered Mk1 Ford Escort built for Charlotte to compete in the youth burnout class.
It retains a factory, unopened LS3 bottom end, while Llama Engineering enhanced the complete top end with in-house cylinder-head work, a custom Crow cam, Johnson tie-bar lifters, dual valve springs, a double-row timing chain and a high-volume oil pump. Converted to a carburettor setup, the engine sends its power through a TH350 transmission and a Ford 9-inch differential.
TUFFXB - 351 Cleveland
1976 XB Ford Fairmont, I've owned this car for so long, its one of those cars you can just jump in and drive across the country!
MAIHEM - 350 SBC
MAIHEM is a genuine 1973 Ford XA Fairmont coupe, originally built by New Zealand burnout legends Liz and Ryan Gracie. Going against the grain, they replaced the traditional Ford powerplant with a supercharged small-block Chevrolet, creating one seriously tough cruiser. Now finished in crisp white, with its unmistakable blown stance, MAIHEM combines one of Ford’s most iconic body shapes with old-school muscle and plenty of burnout attitude. The build was also featured in NZV8 Magazine, highlighting the quality, planning and workmanship that went into bringing this incredible coupe to life.
