hi evryone im from australia and am jst looking for helpful tips for my fords anyway i have two fords one is a fully worked ed falcon 6 ,4.0litre and my tf cortina thats udergoing a full resto this is a photoshoped picture of what it will look like but it will be a different colour havent decided yet? any ideas?
nice cars. dont think your going to find much help here though feel free to hang around and good luck with the rides
nope. i wish you might want to check out fordsix.com/forums for some 6cyl engine tech. our straight 6's got a pretty crappy head with the intake casted right into it
ah well thats our pre x flow six so you didnt get efi six? what model sixes are there from ford in america for any model?
144's 170's 200's and 250's. and the 240/300 that trucks and vans got, totally diffrent engine though. we never really got anything special with our 6's. no special heads, no fuel injection, nothing cool like that i believe 1982 was the last ford straight 6 and they still had the pre-crossflow head and 1bbl carbs that late in the game(the 2bbl carb on my engine above was swapped on, they never cam stock) we did get some turbo/efi inline 4's and after '82 ford started using the v6 alot more which got fuel injection as well
cool thanks for that i just want to learn things like that so how do you modifie he cast head with the inlet manifold on it can you still port it?
i used an adapter plate to put a 2bbl carb on the 1bbl hole. some have gotten their head drilled out tho so the carb bolts right on
