VL Group A Plus Pack HDT build # 3593. # 51 of 500 built . Travelled 68,000 Klm's. All matching, HDT authenticated. The VL SS Group A was the second car built for Group A racing purposes and also numbered 500 in total. Due to the controversial Energy Polariser there was actually two versions of the Group A. Holden could see no technical merit in the Polariser and thus refused to fit it to the cars, so Brock refused to put decals with his signature on cars without it. As a result, Brock’s signature only appears on the higher spec Plus Pack variant. The Plus Pack also included revised springs and anti roll bars as well as revised front suspension geometry and changed spring mounting pads. It also has improved cylinder head cooling with the introduction of an extra water passage to the head and a higher pressure fuel pump. On the inside was a plaque on the glovebox indicating the vehicles build number. Seats were the familiar Scheel items. The Exhaust was of the low restriction big bore variety and had headers designed with Group A racing in mind and as such featured a flange only inches from the cylinder heads. This was done as Group A regulations allowed a free exhaust from the first flange, so they put the first flange as close as possible to the engine to capitalise on the rules. The engine also featured heavy duty con rods and crankshaft as well as Crane (gold coloured) roller rockers and a lightened flywheel. The new body kit comprised a new radiator grille, colour keyed bumpers, Racing specification spoilers on the front and on the boot lid and a small grooved Induction scoop attached to the bonnet with a new cold air induction set up. All cars were painted in the Permanent Red colour, but of note is that the two prototypes were white. For Sale @ Muscle Car Sales..Call Len to inspect Ph: 0411 819 643.....Located in Sydney.
