Climax Airbrushing did the Falcon on the rocker cover, if you have seen any of their other work at any of the car shows they are amazing from little things to whole cars. They painted the rocker cover as a gift for me so I dont know how much it would cost.As far as the mechanical work on the car, it has all bar trans and suspension been done by G-Tech Performance in Campbellfield VIC, it is my car and not a business car but my brother does own G-Tech so therefore I get a resonable deal on work done price wise.If you ever wish to see the car in the flesh or want to go for a ride to see how it is still very driveable it is at G-Tech most of the time.Thankyou for the compliments on the cars looks!!

XITMNT Member 18 Member For: 21y 3m 23d Posted 18/12/06 03:37 PM Posted 18/12/06 03:37 PM (edited) This engine was never built as a serious one, it was a bit of test and see. It is fine as a good strong street engine but the rods and crank are not strong enough to rev to 8500 - 9000 rpm, where the new one will. the head on this engine has just been cleaned up where as the new one was properly flowed on a bench, we have also added a few other things to help support the billet crank and hold evrything together. I suppose I want to see what the full potential of a BA engine is when everything is done and you dont have to worry about things staying together.By the way will be selling this engine soon if anyone is interested!!
