Thanks @deankdx Keen to know what the fuel lines are for the EL-AU falcon. Ideally I should be aiming for the same. Anyone know this? I believe XF main line is 5/16" and Return line is much smaller, - maybe 1\4" and the breather would be 1\8" I think 3\4 would be better...

Thanks @deankdx - your a legend mate. So useful Ive just tracked down an EFI tank, and I have got the pump as well Looks like the much cleaner option. Should i upgrade the pump for the AU, while its out, if so what do you guys recommend as easy replacement? For the fuel lines I was thinking of using the existing feed line pipe as the return, and creating a new feed line. Not sure exactly what size, and also what's the best product to use yet.

Thanks @deankdx Its an XF Spack. Does this mean I can just use the carby tank - and just use an EFI pump with cradle? Or are you saying the tank is just bigger in capacity and thats it? I an trying to source an EFI tank. I think I have found one. It comes with the cradle, but its missing the sender. Apparently these are hard to come by. Any ideas around this or alternatives? I am looking at changing the gauges anyway, to saas gauges, I was thinking I could fit an saas sender to the cradle?

Hi all, was having a look at my fuel tank today and I am a little confused... To be honest, first time mucking around with this. The tank looks very similar to EFI. Does anyone know the differences? Could I not just get an EFI fuel pump and cradle from another XF or wont it fit? Or can I modify the existing one and turn it into an electic pump? Is it already an electric pump? Note, this is a XF 87 falcon. Assume this is not an electric pump, and the wiring is just for the sender?

For the ECU - what have most people done. Have they stuck with the standard ECU from the E-series or AU - or has anyone moved to a Holley\Halltech. Keen to see some good real life examples and what has worked best

Thanks for that mate. Didn’t realise the t5 from au wouldn’t fit. The e series t5 are hard to find Alright Does anyone know if those pacemakers will fit, if not what other options are there. I have heard of some issues with the starter.

Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I’ll try source a fuel tank and upgrade the fuel pump and fuel lines based on your suggestions. Thermos shouldn’t be a problem - there are heaps of options available With the heads, how do I know if they are gt40 or gt40p heads. I thought all AU’s - including fairlaine all had gt40p heads? thanks

Hi I currently have an XF S-PAck and we all know the dash is ugly. I am in the process of switching over the top of the dash to an XD dash, howevee the dash housing and wiring will be the original XF. For the instrument cluster, I am using the sports XD cluster - but taking all the tacos out, - speedo, taco, oil, water, volts and fuel. Pretty much something like the ones below. 1) Where can I get my hands on a wiring diagram for the instrument clsuter on a xf 2) will all the wires in the XF just plug straight into these, or will I need to run new wires and sensors? 3) Also hoping stuff like park break, hibeam, indicators etc will all still work? The top one, looks so much neater, I am a fan of this one.

Yeah this is going to be good fun.. haha also need to make sure I get the right gauges as well.. I think this will play a big role. I am hoping with the lamps, its just as simple as wiring in a globe holder with a globe? Hopefully the cluster isnt doing anything fancy to control the amps \ voltage to each of these items.

I also found this - it looks more promising https://www.fordforums.com/threads/xf-falcon-electronic-dash-test.309481/

http://www.ozfalcon.com.au/index.php?/topic/8529-xf-ford-wiring-diagrams/ I found this, but I cant really see any wiring diagram that explains what each wire does that plugs into the xf cluster...

Thinking something like these

i reached out... they replied very quickly. They wont produce for XD... You would think XD would be easier to be honest. XE has more edges. Ah well.

XE tail lights you can get from here. I am trying to find out who manufactures these, as if they still make them, I dont see why they couldnt make an XD tail light. I will let you know what they come back with. I think this is a fair price as well. https://www.kingswoodcountry.com.au/buy/ford-tail-light-pair-left-right-xe-falcon-sedan-br/kFXE8000NTL-R

haha - with limited stocks avaialble - we are forced to make do with what we got...

I guess this is the opposite right? Tweaker is an XD with an XF back. I can see the back has been cut away to fit the lights. XF to XD Tweaker: - XD to XF

Yeah thats ridiculous... second hand are a mess.

Thanks so much for this. Wow a lot of hacking. I wonder if this will impact the structural integrity of the car snipping it up like that.... good point about the door moulds. But I wont have any moulds on the doors.
