I took the rocker off and their yellas,
And she's a series 2 pursuit and the tb is also 70mm and the yellas so we rang fpv in Melbourne last week and gave them the vin number, they called back today and they have confirmed its a 220, they slapped a few of them in some utes when they had leftover rebel motors. |

Does it have an engine oil cooler behind the grill with the lines running to the oil filter block?
Rebels didnt get a special 220 motor ,it was the same 220 all the later series 2 and 3 xr8 got,i think ford just make stuff up sometimes,i dont doubt it could be a 220 motor but that ford story is hell dodgy lol... |
