    Ford Fg dohc with a ba sump questions

    I dont know. The ba tray is different as the fg one is notched out for pickup tube. You will have to try it and see if it clears

    Ford Fg dohc with a ba sump questions

    You will need to move the dipstick to the front if u have a ba sump on it. I got my bung out by pushing it from bottom up. You will have to have sump off to do it.
  5. Thort i'd throw this up over here also. but fast track it a bit. Picked this up in Feb 2011. it was a 4cyl Auto. Got some new plates for it thanks to Sean. Swapped the 4cyl Auto out for a 6 Cyl T5 Manual (July 2011) 6cyl in Need to cut hole to Suit T5

    KE55 auto runs a 4.3 ratio borgy. (Unsure if bw75 or 78) KE70 auto is 4.3 ratio borgy but its 8 bolt hat (bw75) which is weak small diff.

    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

    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...

    how many kgs for a ba engien ?

    Yeh it opens up a fair way.. not as much as the bonnets tho
  21. P100_Ute

    how many kgs for a ba engien ?

    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.

    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.

    My 79 TE Cortina Ghia

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