VDSY Member 37 Member For: 4y 5m 24d Posted 11/01/21 05:03 AM Share Posted 11/01/21 05:03 AM Hi All, after buying a ute at the end of the year, oil pump gears shattered and am getting it fixed soon hopefully, now while this is getting fixed should I get aftermarket headstuds, harmonic balancer, hd timing chain and guides? from atomic or another source? do I really need half of these? running 460hp has a few mods already, just trying to future proof it, sorry if this has been asked 1000 times... Maybe upgrading to a different turbo in the near future, probably a 76 G2, car will only ever see 98 and doubt it will see any track either, just a nice quick street car.. also at what power would I need headstuds done? or tailshaft and diff? how much can they handle? and what other sources could I buy these from? any info is appreciated. Thank you Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96110-fg-manual-xr6t-ute-mods/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

My suggestion is inspect every so often. Hd timing chain. Yes.Guides and lower sprocket are a good investment. Plenty don't have issues, a few have nothing but trouble. OEM or atomic is good. Tailshaft and diff are usually pretty strong, traction/abuse dependant Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96110-fg-manual-xr6t-ute-mods/#findComment-1702023 Share on other sites More sharing options...
