barnz Member 3,047 Member For: 11y 1m 18d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 16/03/15 09:13 PM Share Posted 16/03/15 09:13 PM Guys the fg engine and and 6spd are already set in stone as he has already purchased, and at the price he's paid. Pretty good deal. So let's just roll with it. He tows a camper as well so it's not all just about going fast, the manual will serve him well and it's what he wants having considered quite a lot of options. So let's just roll with it. Like I've said before gunna you should be working closely with Jamie from this point nutting out the finer details as he will be tuning it. Don't listen to us lol....u know how the saying goes in regards to opinions.....I dunno if you plan to put the motor and box in yourself. But there is a good chance it will be making the trip to FPT on a tow truck if you do. Pretty sure there is going to be a bit of mucking a round tuning wise before it's even able to start making dyno runs let alone driving it a few hours to get there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitting the engine and box will save a fair bit as well, more than a tow is going to cost for sure.
