A rare factory two tone VH SLE V8, this Commodore has undergone a full bare metal, ground up restoration and repaint, resulting in a build that’s equally at home under show lights or on the start line. Recognised as a Summernats Top 60 show car, this VH doesn’t just turn heads, it dominates rooms.
Under the bonnet lives a savage 408ci LS stroker V8, built from a cast LS block and pushing a massive 750 horsepower. With a 13.1:1 compression ratio, forged internals, and a big roller camshaft, this engine is all business. Highly modified cylinder heads and a two piece intake manifold feed a 950cfm E85 carburettor, controlled by a Haltech engine management system for precision and reliability.
A high capacity fuel system ensures it’s always ready for action, while twin 3.5” stainless steel exhausts deliver an aggressive, unmistakable note.
Handling that power is a race built Powerglide automatic, complete with a transbrake and rated to an astonishing 1500 horsepower. A 5500rpm high stall converter ensures explosive launches every time.
Out back sits a sheet fabricated Ford 9” differential, featuring a Mark Williams centre and 40 spline Mark Williams axles, a combination trusted in high level drag competition. The rear has been mini tubbed and fitted with a four link suspension, while coilovers at all four corners keep the car planted and composed under load. Massive Wilwood brakes provide the stopping power needed for a build of this calibre.
Inside, the VH blends classic SLE luxury with modern race technology, headlined by a Haltech IC-7 digital dash, delivering critical data at a glance while keeping the cabin clean and purposeful.
The stance says it all:
● 15 x 10 double beadlock rears for maximum traction
● 17 x 4.5 Weld Magnum fronts for that unmistakable drag presence
This VH SLE is the ultimate combination of rare factory pedigree, elite show car status, and brutal drag strip performance, don’t miss out on the chance to make it yours!
