That thing hammer's

Yeah it was just an idea for my drag motor,i see many v8's with sheetmetal manifolds in drag racing,i also thought about the 6 carby set up ,and make it all stick high up out of the bonnet,as it wont be run on the street.

is that the twin carb adaptor that could bolt to their supercharger manifold ?

what about making a sheet-metal manifold to run 3 x 350's, feeding 2 cyl's per carb ,or 2 x 500's feeding 3 cyl's each.

With the large open 4 barrel aussie speed manifold has anyone tryed the plenum pig ! i assume it gives a bit better low down power and without it big power over 6000rpm

What about 6 nice fuel inj trumpets on a Webber crossy manifold,anyone tried that ?

What sort of cfm are these webbers ? 200?each

yeah thats why i was asking

By today's standard's ,would the triple's have any advantage over the large 4 barrel manifold and carby set up,or is it more for show,i no a lot of car's had triple's back in the day,charger,torana,ect....

looks mean

That mark on the piston is from putting the ring on incorrect,it was put on by hand and slid around the rim and the sharp end has cut the top of the piston as it goes over the piston then into its grove,i have seen this so many times on engines.

i found 2 today,i will do more research on them for the crossy

yeah early c4's had 24-24 then 24-26 1970 model had its own blah blah ,i have the choice of many down at the shop so i might go for what ever box fits the bellhousing i am getting,even the 1966 67 68 69 box is better than the borgy im sure.

I just went to the transmission shop,i can get a choice of many c4's for around $250 a core,but no bellhousing,the owner himself has a 6cyl mustang there himself so he say's the later c4 or c10 will need a custom bellhousing to fit,the early c4's have a different bellhousing for 200 c.i. i6's,but he said he can put later c10 guts into a early case and swap it all.just depends on what bellhousing you can get your hands on.

what is wrong with the early c4's pre 1970 ? everybody says get the later model,but what about just for a 6cyl surley they are better than the bw.

I have just been looking again on the aussie speed site and there is a 192 c.i, blower shop unit now available ,looks like a 4/71 but would go really nice on an crossy,billet alloy,and they have the snout's to fit.

When i take my car for a spin every afternoon i go thru the mountains and then wind it up on the straight,i cant fault it see's 4000rpm plus ,but holding it flat doing a big burnout i dont think it will last long,but for general mildly worked engine it's fine.

ok what about the bw40 or ea 3 speed box are they any tougher ?

where did you buy all the pulleys and kit from or did you make them ? i no aussie speed does one,also did this car have p/steer or air ?

is that the car on you tube ?

yeah i figure the xe is a fair bit lighter with the crossy than the clevo ,and after i gut it even more it should weigh heaps less.350hp would push the car hard with gears probly 3.9's with what i have read here on ozfalc

I am quite capable of assembling the engine,in other posts i have said a friend of mine own's and runs a good machine shop and he loves playing around with stuff like this he is old school and has done a lot of i6's in his time,i have told him i want to do something crazy with this engine either turbo or supercharged or wild n/a with n20 so im just getting as much info i can ,i have done many big clevo's but this crossy thing has got my attension at the moment.

im just interested what is availible

is there a hyd roller for a crossy ?
