Haha yep . Well no expense was spared. Only way this engine is breaking is if the head lifts off the block.

Is their a build thread of this somewhere? Need more details...

mad_keen · Post by **mad_keen** » July 23rd, 2011, 9:09 pm

Umm its my brothers car. He's not a forum person. I can make one i guess. Got alot of pics. Talkin to him today he reckons itll only make 1100rwhp. But he said itll defintiely be a 1000hp car. Wont see it making 1000 on one dyno then 900 on the next. He builds rank cars for a living. Did all the work on this up until the guy moved recently http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d9DTkkOKWo" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Yer cause I had to relocate the coolant bottle cause of the manifold cause the intake is to hight its only an xg falcon there isnt as much room in the bay like an ef el but where the pod is there is xb bonnet flutes and it sits right under it

that's the bonnet it sits under gets heaps more cold air rather then sitting behind a light

huggiebear · Post by **huggiebear** » December 4th, 2011, 9:33 pm

needs less heat shield paint and more rockercover paint. to be honest it doesnt need the 4.0 on there as its written on the top of the motor itself

dylan2250 · Post by **dylan2250** » December 4th, 2011, 10:23 pm

yeah your right mate i just bought the car the guy befor did that. i was thinking a pointing the rocker cover black
