1985 HDT VK SS Group A Commodore - Build 38/500 (Withdrawn)
How good is this! An unrestored survivor 1985 VK SS Group A Commodore build no. 38/500. Running the all matching numbers unmodified 304 cubic inch 4.9 litre LV2 V8. You know the one. Crammed full of the good gear by HDT including roller rockers, a specific cam grind and various mods to the block to make it go the distance in endurance racing. Throw in extractors and a cold-air intake and you were looking at 196kW at about 5200rpm. This wonderful engine was mated to the tried and tested 4 speed M21 gearbox.
HDT added more goodies to their Group A creation including a deep front spoiler, boot lid spoiler, 16x7 Aero alloy wheels and a bunch of interior changes including Scheel front seats, Momo steering wheel and gear-knob, a basic stereo and of course the instantly recognisable Formula Blue paint.
Raw and purposeful, the Blue Meanie is an absolute beast. The idle is about as lumpy as an XU1 Torana and the whole car feels like its ready to have a go at anything that gets in its way. And that's just warming the thing up in your driveway.
Let it off the leash and the Group A SS will wind up to about 3000rpm, and right at that point a fair chunk of hell breaks loose as the 304 gets up on its camshaft and exhaust. And oh what a beautiful sound that makes!
You get the drift by now.
