TornadoJudd Donating Members 818 Member For: 19y 3m 29d Posted 26/03/07 09:53 AM Share Posted 26/03/07 09:53 AM Just wondering how much a second hand set of F6 rods and pistons are worth?

Also there are better rods/pistons than the stock F6 ones, as even the BA2/BF's have them Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33620-how-much-are-they-worth/#findComment-513858 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TornadoJudd Donating Members 818 Member For: 19y 3m 29d Posted 26/03/07 12:48 PM Author Share Posted 26/03/07 12:48 PM I dont want to buy them. I already have an F6. What I wanted to know is if I upgraded my rods and pistons how much could I sell my old ones for? They would have to be worth something Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33620-how-much-are-they-worth/#findComment-513956 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I wanted to know is if I upgraded my rods and pistons how much could I sell my old ones for? They would have to be worth something←I think it is fair to say that they are worthless.The cost for someone to use these, is quite substantial, as a new block will probably have to be purchased to fit the pistons.Oh and by the way, F6 pistons are no different to XR6T pistons.

Apparently gas/F6/bf whatever you wanna call em rods will work with a custom forged piston in the early blocks. Try selling them on fordmods.com, lots of turbo falcons on a budget there mate Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33620-how-much-are-they-worth/#findComment-514103 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are cheaper now that its just a regular xr6t bottom end Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33620-how-much-are-they-worth/#findComment-514111 Share on other sites More sharing options...
