Hey guys... need to clear some room- and my turbo dreams just dont look like a happening.
So is anyone interested in buying my 92 eb 2 falcon s, Hasnt been registered for a yr or so.. took it for a blue slip couple of months ago requires 2 rear tyres and windsrceen wipers- got the wipers, then was up for $1440 for new tyres for the ute. so i never got it registered :(
Anyways can do it if needed. would rather sell as is reminds me of my shepherd too much :( he was put down last week.
Just after $700 ono...
Great car, needs a tune up, spoiler has flaked paint, few minor marks and front bar spoiler is damaged and now in the boot. Other than that its all good?

Build up date... have now 1.72 Yella Terra RR's. 70mm Tickford T/B might polish it also, acl gaskets, ordered 2 x MSD coils, MSD leads, Iridium sparks, alloy radiator overflow hopefully here before xmas, later looking at either crane 2031, Ford racing E303, or crow cam, and crow valve springs....... After that just a few more things here and there and ill stop.
As i passed my learner riding test, and just got pass the computer test next week, and im wanting to get a road bike. Maybe honda rvf 400

If you are going to change your valve springs and cam/lifters, i would be upgrading the push rods while you are at it, and maybe upgrading the spring retainers and collets. Being a wheezzoorr.....im not totaly sure, but myself and neil have been bitten in this area with the clevo's. Are you going to stay with the standard xr8 inlet manifold or are you going to find a tickford unit ?

dreadly · 11-12-2008, 03:05 PM

Lol the xr8 is Tickford.... has a gt40 one.
of course ill do the little retainers.... maybe the rods- longer ones? maybe lifters.
But if i can find a cam where a can keep as much internals standard the better? if i start getting to carried away i may aswell get a stroker kit- and then if i do that im better getting a new T3. but,
Now i want a bike too.
So i cant spend to much more :(
Hows your beast coming along mate?
have ya got me down for a calendar and xmas ticket? ;)

Noooooooooo...im talking about the inlet manifold on Brians TS. Which is a special manifold made by Tickford.
If you are going to get a cam you will need new lifters with it.
If you want to keep the stock valve train...forget about a large or even a "in the middle of the road" cam. Then why change it in the first instance.
No need for longer push rods if you buy a cam to suit the 1.72 rollers that ou have.
We do not have you down for a callendar or a christmas ticket as you were ment to inform Mellissa. Everybody got told on the last run, and it was in black and white in the last 2 newsletters.

:
WE NEED TO KNOW IF YOU ARE COMMING TO THE CHRISSI PARTY !!!!
And as for my beast....JANUARY 2009 !!!!! wwhhhooo hhhoooo Thats about all i can say for now.
