Boosted Falcon

here's my engine bay as it is at the minute, std motor with 280,xxx klm's & a couple of the usual add on's.
new donk to come some time in the year with some bling parts that i've had sitting around for a while

Will have more soon as its yet to change but here it is for now:

Nup its 'Magenta'

now what kind of Ford is this? :p


the EF - in the process of putting the custom expansion tank in & also the new air intake


plastic fantastic FG

Mine's still ugly but at least it stays clean now. This is over 2 weeks after I degreased it. Gotta love gasket goo!

Tocchi, the FG has one big mofo of a snorkel!

Love the sneak peaks of the Capri BTW!

dezza what exstractors are they,you should do a bbm conversion well worth it and not very dear to do

They're Pacey 4499s. The colour's not quite original as they had a fair bit of surface rust when I got them. The BBM should be a good mod for it one day. I have to find a new job first though.

Some of you would probably recognise his other 'weekend' car, XHXR8 Ute, 600ish HP:

Here's mine as it sits today, it's a work in progress.

man that elxr6 turbo engine bay is one of the neatest turbo e series engine bays ive seen

that XH Bay is pure s3x

Heres mine. Just finished cleaning painting etc last week and yesterday went to take it out and white smoke everywere ( I meen clouds ) so it looks like its coming out

thats probably the most colorful engine bay ive ever seen. but still pretty schmick!

That radiator cover is mint!

Did you make it yourself?

Does this include works in progress, that doesn't currently have anything in it....lol!!!???
This is my spanky white engine bay from my EA Ambulance...after about 24 hours of scrubbing (afternoons over about a fortnight)....and about 10 litres of cheap shit degreaser and dishwashing detergent, and a couple of "Go-Lo" dunny brushes...in preparation to be seam-welded and smoothed (yet to be done)....but before my EF radiator support panel conversion was done.
Eventually to be painted a really deep Burgundy fade....fading to black at the firewall...

Before...



After...





I will have to try and remember this thread...as well as my "In The Build" thread....so I can update this engine bay as I go along.....lol!

Yeah mate I made it at work out of mirror stainless steel, I still have the template I made up. I will prolly make some more up.....just need to see how much stainless I can worm of work stay tuned!!!!

Thats mint!! Rad cover looks awesome, youll get a fair bit of business here if you want some extra cash

Normally I'd hate an engine bay like Waghoon's, but there's something about it which I quite like. Has a "work-in-progress" look to it though, like the BBM & extractors are waiting to be touched up or something.

Just gota change the orange joiner to blue and I reckon that will look alrite
