Why dont you try and find a brand new FG short motor.. It will handle the power you want.. Edited 12/04/18 01:52 PM by arronm

LOLWUT @MUZz1984@ Agree with @arronm for a cost effective solution regarding a new FG short is ~$3500 and can happily sit in the 500rwkw area as is

Torque plate bored & honed , file back rings straighten crankshaft (!) plaz valve springs, ford exhaust valves & head gasket & new heat exchanger. It's mostly back together & intending to change it over this weekend 3

4321 Legacy Donating Member 257 Member For: 12y 6m 15d Posted 12/05/18 07:25 AM Author Posted 12/05/18 07:25 AM It's in & running fine, started at 5am this morning & in & running at 1.30! dropped the whole lot out the bottom & changed every thing over to the new engine. That went smooth but changing the radiator- what a crap job (worse than BA_BF) have pics will upload later. Thanks for all the advice! 1
