  1. Definitely put a selector shaft seal in it to keep the oil in, never seen one that didn't piss oil out.

    Crossflow do's and dont's.

    You need one from an XF or ZL with EFI. Pretty sure XEs with EFI didn't have the TFI module for whatever reason.

    EL GT-P 18" Wheels on XE

    Genuine ones were 19" and didn't come in E series offset, so yes copies. If they are clean and the tyres are near new its not far off.

    Standard Cleveland pistons

    Here's another question. More for curiositys sake. Did the 302 and 351 use the same pistons? Were they dished? Just standard Falcon engines, not 4V or GT.

    Standard Cleveland pistons

    Yeah that's right. Pistons to suit the longer rod on a 351 crank have a different pin height to drop the Piston down.

    The front yard special

    If you need it just send me a message.

    The front yard special

    I have what I assume is an 86DA motor in my carport. I'm going to be taking the sump and a few pieces of it for mine. If you want the block or anything off it before it goes to scrap, it's all yours. I'll be watching to see how it this goes.

    Standard cams 302 and 351

    That's perfect thanks.

    Standard cams 302 and 351

    Here's a simple one. Did a 302 and 351 have a different cam fitted standard? XD vs XD.

    Custom bodywork and design ideas

    Needs the tub line to be higher to look normal I think.

    Welsh plug size XF

    That was definitely correct, 1 3/4 is what I used.

    AU3 XR8 T5z into clevo XE

    Would this work? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-V8-BELLHOUSING-CLEVELAND-TO-TOPLOADER-OR-SINGLE-RAIL-XA-XB-XC-GT-GS-351-/330939273230?hash=item4d0d84900e:g:R5oAAOxy2YtRuSG2

    AU3 XR8 T5z into clevo XE

    I met a bloke using a 6 cylinder T5 on a windsor with a modified single rail V8 bellhousing. Should work the same for a clevo. While I'm here, did any old V8 falcons have a cable clutch? XY or similar? I swear I've seen bellhousings with the provision for a fork. If that's the case I won't have to convert my XD to hydraulic clutch.

    Water pump gasket and o ring sealant?

    Permatex number 3 I've always used, the aviation one. Nearly anything will work. I normally brush the gaskets both sides, bolt threads too yes. I've left the o ring dry normally but they can be a pain to get on and off.

    Removing EFI XE 250

    I'm not sure what triggers the pump but the guages sure run off the traditional sensors. Would be very basic compared to modern EFI. Would be able to fit a carby easy, just needs power to coil and dizzy and an electric low pressure fuel pump. Weber needs ignition switched power or run a Holley etc.

    NC fairlane diff

    Yeah the fronts have the tone wheel on the disc.

    NC fairlane diff

    Just read that again, if the abs tone wheels are on the axle ends then the rotors will be the same.
  18. SLO247

    NC fairlane diff

    Calipers are the same. I don't know if the tone wheels for the ABS are on the rotors or what but the non ABS rotors will fit anyway. Guessing its going in an X series? Won't make a difference if so, use whatever discs you have.

    Panko's Mk1 Escort (Round 2)

    That stance, paint and wheel combo is perfect.

    Give me a shopping list - XG turbo ute

    This is how it's going to be.

    Can always notch the shock tower.

    Bumper Repair/Paint

    Do you guys have the mobile touch up blokes over there? They would fix that up for a few hundred. Otherwise I agree with Jim, slowly fill it all with paint then wet sand smooth and polish. Wont be perfect but should be tidy.

    HELP WITH T5 ID ?

    I think he's just talking about the bell housing.

    HELP WITH T5 ID ?

    I haven't seen a thread, I just pulled it out of an XD I bought years ago. Had a T5 but the bell housing has the old 76DA part number. Haven't looked at it for a while but i think they were drilled and tapped.

    HELP WITH T5 ID ?

    I have been trying to sell it, the problem would be freight. Are you in Vic? Its iron and would have to weigh 20kg I think.
