I can get a fg intake to suit a ba for $1000 ,but will need a fuel rail to suit . but everyone is right I am way better of to get a FG engine ,that would be the only way to get this car back on the road for what I can afford .what is the best year model to buy (cam problems )etcdominello is going to build the BTR ,he has a 9 second ba that the box has been in for over 2 years Edited 10/03/15 06:29 AM by gunna Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90082-engine-re-build/page/5/#findComment-1534027 Share on other sites More sharing options...
