Peever Donating Members 23 Member For: 13y 8m 20d Gender: Male Location: Townsville, North QLD Posted 27/02/12 08:38 AM Share Posted 27/02/12 08:38 AM I blew the engine in my Falcon it turned out to be bad fuel that blew it... (not happy) anyways I was running 410rwkw through a BF mkII which Iv been told isnt to much drama... anyways when I blew it as you can imagine made a big mess of th e block and the sump.. now Im looking at a new block and I know my next question is gonna sound super stupid.. but I dont want to ask these questions at a mechanic cause they will probaly take advantage of it and charge me a sh*t tin... the engine I have found is a BF mkII block it has had the sump weilded professionally as it had a crack.. will this cause dramas down the road? also it doesnt come with Manifold Wiring, oil pump and accessories.. I dont think I need any of those things anyway right? and If I do what is needed? any help on this is muchly appreciated...thanks in advance,Peever.

Wiring cannot help there. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79097-help-about-engine-replacement/#findComment-1203090 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFII has stronger pistons, same rods as FG, but FG block is stronger than BF.But a stronger block is not going to make alot of difference when your throwing rods.
