  1. Thats my TD with the Barra in it...

    Stock FG engine went 9.3 @ 149mph ..

    Its now a built engine making over 1000Hp at the tyres ;)

     

    1000HP is off the chain Craig!

     

    be roughly a mounth and mine will be up and running. daily driver tho so not going to be too insane but enough to shut down the hot headed VF SS owners who think their $70k car is the fastest thing in this town.


  2. Nah still with the 250xflow at moment.

    I didnt get to race it last week as i needed to change Battery as the Track inspectors didnt like the other one so i got it all sorted today and got a FireCam Helmet Camera which mounts to my helmet and works pretty awesomely. best $60 i spent

  3. Truckloads. Neighbours loved it last night straight off extractors. We got a test n tune street down the road here in Kwinana that I might test its powerskid capabilitys on. Then Wednesday night might take to Woop Ass Wednesday at Kwinana Motorplex and see its 1/4 mile time


  4. picked up a set of extractors for the car and fitted them over the last 2 days.

    engine mount off completly and lift engine up to fit them.. other than that and a quick buff of bellhousing with grinder. they slipped in no worries...

  5. lol , was wondering who picked up that Barra motor in Williams..... think I was stalking it on Gumtree...... Good find, have fun making that Corty crank.

     

    Jack.

    I didnt buy it in williams. I pulled into williams TAB to put bet on melbourne cup. I took engine from my shed in Leda to Albany to Seans joint


  6. Haha love the photo with the Barra in the boot, only thing different i would done is replaced the crossflow with the barra in the engine bay and chucked the crossflow in the boot! :P

    Already Done as the BA engine was a spare one that i had lying around to i gave it to someone else

     

    ha ha thats what he's doin!!!

  7. Engine weights about 195 kilo. so add weight of manifolds etc.. prob 250 max?

    I threw one in boot of Corty (original 4cyl shocks/springs in rear) and drove 400km and you couldnt even feel the weight in the back as the 250xflow pulled like a train the whole way.

  9. Most coppas wouldn't know what they were lookin at. Theyd see a nice clean car no leaks and give thumbs up and send u along road.

     

    I havent been pulled over in my Corty yet and I live in a suburb with bad rep for last 20 years with cops everywhere and its my daily.


  10. Old xrglenn pipes?? Stick them on the DOHC mate

     

    Yeh that will be the plan. Ill stick em on my daily when I fly home

     

    Made by a bloke named Shane, they were his and the Cortina made 250rwhp in 98 from memory.

    Ill see how much I can punch through them. See how the torque curve goes like compared to whats on it now.

    I spent last night terrorizing ur neighbours mum last night on the phone. She was blind drunk and it was funny as. She was fuming after.

     

     

    Id love to go drum as i hear its more consistent but im gonna say pump as its more convenient.

     

    My mate Bushy gets drums by truckload of methenol for his burnout car but id guess he could get E85 too if u want me to ask him about availability and cost.
