speedysouthpaw New Member 3 Member For: 11y 7m 21d Posted 24/02/14 12:58 AM Share Posted 24/02/14 12:58 AM Hey Everyone,Need to pick up a new long motor for my FG ... Rang ford today to get prices on both an xr6 t long motor and an F6 long motor and the xr6t motor was more expensive by almost 2k! Does anybody know the reason for this? I was of the understanding that the F6 motor had the better bottom end? Does this still apply for the FG MKII?Any help in clarifying this would be greatly appreciated.
