truenosedan Forums Junkie Location: Adelaide Registered: May 2003	Re: any one battled a new monaro??? Thu, 13 November 2003 01:37 i have no huge problem with poof-rods, but i just think holden is stuck in the past - magna sohc per pank, camry dohc per bank, ford dohc per bank, and commode good 'ol sump cam with valves acuated by pushrods! i completely and utterly agree with the reliability of pushrods no cam belt change etc. but as HPI said "ecotec v6 donk, noisy thirsty and slow". my dad has a vy company car he says the motor is rough as guts and his old company car magna went harder. so thats my theory of the pushrod v6, but yes agreed cheap and compact for a 3.8, gen similar story except more power, but reliablitity no as evident! valve seating problems, burning oil, there was one other problem that my mate at claridge holden ( ex mechanic - turned manager/ club racer ) said but i cant remember. just for the record he drives an et turbo ( he only bought it cos it was mint, he hate fwd ) and an old twin carby race alfa, as for mechanics owning ford/holden, it is because they have been built with austrlia in mind, and there fore fit the needs of working people!!! sorry for long post, but bbaacchhyy point taken completely [Report message to a moderator]
