igor Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Man who sits next to me in the office claims a fairly reliable 25mpg from a 302W powered XD Falcon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
440bbm Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Jesus, what a journey you guys went through, all for a ford. *runs for cover She looks nice though, and cool shape. Love the squareness and the shape carried over the rear tailights. How long till you get it here in NZ? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nominal Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 It's a journey. Did you know that 289 and 390 are just one key over for each number on the keyboard. Also I dunno why people put those sniper EFI units on, must be good marketing spend by Holley. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anglia4 Posted September 23 Author Share Posted September 23 Yeah one of my mates has one on his F100, it was on it when he brought the truck and its getting pretty close to going in the scrap bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
440bbm Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 lols yeah, they do have their uses like alot of things, but very limited - stupid you need to cert for them too?! bit like poeple that claim edlebrocks are the best carbies too. again they can have an advantage in a limited application.

anglia4 Posted September 23 Author Share Posted September 23 Yeah my mustang has an Edelbrock on it. By all accounts it was hard to get the tune right, but then it hasn't needed touching again for a decade or so since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePog Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Fuckers going to do a George RR Martin and leave us with no last book in this frankly epic story. I bet the TV adaptation will be great up too, right up until the last couple of seasons, where it will lose direction and leave us with a filthy taste in our mouths. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kws Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 NGL, was rooting for this one when I saw it. Man that brown is gorgeous. And then they ruined it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anglia4 Posted September 24 Author Share Posted September 24 Yeah I liked the brown paint, but also looked at another the same colour and the brown on brown interior was absolutely disgusting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
