    Shimming rockers

    Set of stepped rocker studs, nuts and guides, and some scorpion 1.7 rockers from rockauto was the route i went. My thread had links at the time. Cheaper option may be out there now though. Sent from my SM-A217F using Tapatalk

    Falcon XC Crossflow - Dying Oil Pressure

    Still alive crunk. Your link won't work for me, probably operator error at this end. I would fit a manual gauge and check the pressure with that first and foremost. Eliminates the chance of a dodgy sender unit. Triple check all connections in the oil pressure sensor circuit from the sender to the ecu. Once you have verified there actually is an issue, then can proceed to next step.

    Removing sump with engine in car???

    My xc is a 6 banger, as said above it is possible once swaybar is dropped/removed. These days i have unrestricted access to the workshop so last bit of engine work i just pulled it out.

    Removing sump with engine in car???

    Have done my xc a couple of times in the past. Undo engine mounts, remove swaybar, jack up engine far enough to fit some bits of 2x4 under each engine mount, sump comes out with a bit of a twist and wiggle. Prick of a job tbh.

    Tappet Cover

    Steel cover and roller rockers. No tappy tappy. Only .55 lift though.
  6. For 6 cylinder. Xa xb 3 speed manual bellhousing had hydraulic clutch, center can be opened up 4mm to fit single rail or t5 and have hydraulic clutch as opposed to cable. Use release bearing arm from 3speed bellhousing. Also needs upper rh hole redrilled to mount gearbox. Will add photo of bw35 next time i go outside.

    why rebuild a crossflow?

    One day i will put my xflow on a dyno, hope to get 230-250hp out of it with the 600vs carby. But i have done nothing to fix the rusty body it sits in since my last project thread update. Kids and too many other projects, bikes and boat.

    why rebuild a crossflow?

    Gone past the point of crazy money on this side of the ditch mate. People wanting big dollars for worn out blocks etc etc. I would love a nice mild 351, hp per cube sort of deal. But ain't gonna happen. Not nicely anyway.

    Because you can.

    Crossflow alloy head casting numbers

    Thread dredge. Can anyone confirm the chamber size of the e1 head? Have been looking for e2 but e1s keep popping up.

    crossflow street/strip build

    I got scorpion rockers and some stepped studs and guideplates from summit. Was far cheaper than the yella terra option, freight out of the states was on par with out of oz too (New Zealander). Since you have swapped to a rail, i recommend ironforce flywheels. Billet and half the weight, literally, of the xf flywheel. Swap your ringgear on and go. I had to drill out the mounting boltholes as i have the older block/crank. Ymmv. And they look great. Sent from my SM-A217F using Tapatalk

    XC Falcon fuel pump seal kit?

    Part number is on the box in that thread. I got the last one from the nz supplier years ago (so they said anyway). Still sitting on my shelf. Sent from my SM-A217F using Tapatalk

    Valve spring tool

    I have not used compressed air in years for doing stem seals. Length of thin poly rope fed through the sparkplug hole. Wind it up to tdc and your sorted. The wind down style clamp above works well but buy a good one as tough springs can open the fingers. Sent from my SM-J330G using Tapatalk

    Replacement head for iron crossy

    So...avgas ftw? Haha Seriously though thanks for the info, not above doing whatever work is necessary. But i am going to try the adaptor and 4barrel route first. End goal is still efi itb's. But a lotto win or other windfall will be in order for that to happen. Sent from my SM-J330G using Tapatalk
