He could have got that thing going faster, cheaper & more of a sleeper using a barra turbo.

F6 310 donk would have been better would'nt It?

Don't understand putting GM donks into Fords and vice versa.

If it was me.
I would use either the F6 Barra Motor, or a Ford 5.4 Litre Stroker with a Twin Turbo set up in the Ute.

G'day ...This is closer perhaps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9SLk4Fmm4o . It has a Ford big block at least .

Then there's this US look at a pretty nice Aussie Ford at SEMA in 2014 .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfBnNZA0agE

Cheers Rod.

I got ripped by an old XF 4.1 Crossflow Ute today....... 0 to 60.

The lifters were noisy, windows down i nearly yelled out 'put some oil in it'.

We both took off at green and he beat me.

That extra 100cc plus lighter ute rear end must have been why?

My Barra wagon was'nt happy!
