Just feelin a little tight at the moment, lol. The way I think about it is, even if I have a kick ass motor, the auto is gonna let me down no matter what I do to it. that's what I was told by my tuner anyways. Are the 4 speeds reliable? Its already got a stage 2 auto rebuild> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once rebuilt they are timebombs waiting for the next rebuild... Better than stock im sure but yeah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number 6 rod???I spat No.6 out the side of my block about 2 months ago. Destroyed the sump and starter motor on it's way out. I have to admit, that I was extremely lucky as it didn't do any damage to the head at all..Good luck with your new engine...How much does he want for the F6 bottom end?

Senna your the man, lol. Your my new mechanic.And the " F6 bottom end" turned to be a BF Turbo MK II bottom end. Apparently they're the same sh*t, that's what I'm told anyways. Think it was between 2500 to 3000 grand for the bottom end. Didnt get an exact price. If any ones interested in the car let me know coz its up 4 sale now. Good price to. Probably gonna go trade in for a BF or FG if I cant sell it privately. Depending how much of a trade in price I can squeeze out of those pricks at ford. Eventhough the car's mint, they'll still probably offer me something like 14 K for it. Going manual this time round......Thanks for the help guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
