thecook Member 47 Member For: 13y 7m Posted 07/12/11 05:38 AM Share Posted 07/12/11 05:38 AM hello mate I just put a FG F6 long motor in my BA the only thing you need to change is sump.Yes they have Forged pistons from Mahle and the rods are the same as normal turbo, stronger than the old ones from early Ba's. little bit different in compression and the cams are a little different two. big $$$ I hope it was worth it.if you are going to tune it a cheap investment is to change oil pump gears.

Has a very smooth spread of power, unlike my previous engine that came on like a sledge hammer(and went bang like one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce did the old tune, and had the new one done down here in Mount Gambierby the dyno man at Repco Auto care. They have a Mainline 4wd dyno, inground setup.They fitted the new engine for me as well. Seems to know his stuff. They use HP tune, and VCM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
