Brooksy-BFXR6T Member 14 Member For: 12y 11m 2d Posted 21/08/13 04:01 AM Share Posted 21/08/13 04:01 AM So who in Mackay is good to go to for things like valve springs & porting mod? I'm about to start doing some things to my BF, and I've been out of the game a while.I'll be getting Dave to tune it if possible, so just after the harder mechanical issues.

He did my porting ect himself but I'm a long term customer and he has tuned 3 falcons for me. As for valve springs from memory he didn't recommend any mackay shops which I was surprised at. He actually recommended some brissy shops. I live in Bilo so it was just as easy to drive to brissy as it was to drive to mackay Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39611-central-qld/page/90/#findComment-1417648 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need to have a talk to him anyway sooner or later. Know if he can still tune gay series 1 flash boxes?He still using Clappo's dyno? I have heard good and bad things from Clappo, but he's about the only one I've ever been near that I would hand my keys to.Anyone have oppinions of the one on Archibald St... Dyno... Something?

But he sells the series 3 xcal at a good price. He's not using the same dyno as he used too just around the corner from his place. He now uses a shops over in the industrial area near Hastings ect, can't remember the bloke atm...

Brooksy-BFXR6T Member 14 Member For: 12y 11m 2d Posted 22/08/13 03:23 AM Share Posted 22/08/13 03:23 AM Yeah, would be Clappo I'm pretty sure. Clappo's dyno used to be near his place, then he moved it to his new shop in Paget.
