J2Racing Posted February 5, 2007 Author Posted February 5, 2007 9" Falcon or 8" Mustang, Arent that hard to come by are they??But then again its not getting them, its shortening thats stings you... Cheers,Chris Falcons aren't realy a 9" I don't think but thats splitting hairs. Yeah they have to be shortened and the stud patten is wrong. But the ideal thing for my race car. Quote
J2Racing Posted February 5, 2007 Author Posted February 5, 2007 Most likely will just port match and rejet the carb up a bit. I can't afford/justify upgrading the drive line to coup. I'm running a heavy duty gear box but can't find a cheap option on the diff. So rather than over stress stuff that will be expensive to replace . I'll just turn down the dreams. Yeah right I've heard that before. As soon as its on the road the power isn't enough and outcomes the wallet again For the better... True story unless you have a cheap atlas for sale. Quote
J2Racing Posted February 8, 2007 Author Posted February 8, 2007 Just making sure you saw this.... V6 Inlet Manifold hi rise 4 barrell 4 barrell manifold for v6 capri or mk 4 good working order http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 288732.htm If the 4 bbl was too much you could use an adapter plate to run a 2 bbl 390 cfm Someone payed nearly two hundy for it. What a laugh Quote
sholdowa Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 Did someone say they had a cheap atlas for sale??? Quote
J2Racing Posted February 8, 2007 Author Posted February 8, 2007 Did someone say they had a cheap atlas for sale??? What ratio you need? Mk3 cortina 1600cc auto wagon had an atlas I think. Whole car must be worth 50 bucks tops Quote
sholdowa Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 Anywhere beween 3.5 and 4 will be good. What's the width of the axle?? Quote
J2Racing Posted February 8, 2007 Author Posted February 8, 2007 No idea sorry but I don't think it will be that high. As far as I know the highest ratio for used factory was 3.09 and thats in mk1 V6 capri. Never seen one of those for sale for less than five hundy. When I do I'll buy it. Quote

Prices have gone through the roof on capri stuff now. I bought a rusty as hell parts car about 6 years ago cost a hundered pinga now they sell for close to a grand. Quote
