As im looking to buy atleast a BF or higher I really need to know what is different.Been saving for a while now and its time to start getting serious about buying one Many thanks in advance, looking forward to your replies.Cheers,Joel Edited 16/11/09 11:04 AM by sleek7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleek7 Member 5 Member For: 15y 7m 12d Posted 17/11/09 06:51 AM Author Share Posted 17/11/09 06:51 AM Thanks Millzy, I found that before I posted here but it mentions only changed valve springs and conrods. Is this all that changes or is there more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sasgamo Member 35 Member For: 16y 3m 16d Gender: Male Posted 19/11/09 07:56 AM Share Posted 19/11/09 07:56 AM conrods too, in bas they were getting bent or similar.also all bfs had better valve springs from 2005 but on or after 06/06 the used better pistons and conrods as well. I heard they were used for dedicated gas engines to allow for the more power (explosion rather) internal combustion gas engines made hense the need for stronger internals.

E Gas engines used the stronger rods because during early testing they would bend the standard rods if the engine backfired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
