And a Southern Cross Sticker...
There is more $$ in fittings/bling there than most e-series on here are worth.

SLO4LT · Post by **SLO4LT** » June 4th, 2011, 9:23 pm

agreed! needs a snail, definitely a nice and neat setup otherwise, no untidy cables/hoses, done a very good job! anyone know how to get polished throttle body and other shit like that?

misk · Post by **misk** » June 4th, 2011, 9:28 pm

huggiebear · Post by **huggiebear** » June 17th, 2011, 2:35 pm

my engine bay at the moment. the back corners my gun wouldnt get into but has been fixed but no pics. first time ever painting. cheap gravity fed spray gun, thought i done quite well. looking back i wish i got all the factory imperfections out of the metal before painting but looks better then it did.

Thought I would chuck up a pic of the new addition to our ford family.. Turbo AU. No aftermarket computer, running either really rich or lean and the engine bay is a mess but it was registered and a 'budget' build. Now that it is in our hands rearranging all the engine components since all the hard work has been done and a few extra things like a mod plate and a few new seats and maybe some paint... and once my partner gets his licence back it will be ready for him

Bit of a sleeper, original plan was to pull the engine and gearbox out of this one and chuck into mine but we have since acquired a complete XR6 falcon for $1000 sos tripped it today and next week work to turbo it
