Ah yes that would make diff ratio swaps easier to calibrate, the XF has a 10 pulse/rev transducer i found out, but it wont really matter, just keep adjusting till the speedo reads true i guess?

that 1 second difference might be due to the slow gear shift in the auto? takes forever on full throttle change, the take off in My opinion with My car was auto now manual is not much difference, with a w58 manual gearbox now. acceleration doesnt feel any different, but i did not get a chance to...

COOL! will you need to strengthen the chassis being a convertable? i have heard the 3500 rover V8 is fun in them, well the Lexus V8 is no comparison. in the falcon i have it is potentially dangerous and it would weigh at leat 200Kg more i would guess. pics would be great, you did not cut...

well, i dont have to worry about overheating, i had my car on the dyno making sure the fuel pump kept up suppy(no probs) the dyno guy sat it on 5500rom for over a minute with load, no dyno fan was used(it was a 20degree C day anyway) 70degrees was measured at the top water bridge, and radiator...

well mine is now out a bit more than 20% as the XF has a 10 pulse/rev transducer and the XE has 8pulse/rev thats with a 3.45 diff ratio. depending on what diff ratio you have in there, will determine what pulse rate you will need. i found the speed limiter yesterday at around 100KMh due to...

EXHAUST DONE, dyno Test fuel mixtures ok new update, got the exhaust done Today, twin cats, and 2.5" turbo exhaust same as my XF in avator.(sorry copied this text from my other forum, the XF is a 250Ci straight six crossflow alloyhead.) idle is so quiet its hard to beleive its running(the...

sorry, i wont get time i dont think? i'd have to borrow a Video camera too., all i can say is its a nice Note, better by far than out of the factory crown engine pipe. at idle its fairly quiet, no louder than a standard sports exhaust. when you give it some stick it sounds great. you can...

good luck with yours, yeah i am looking forward to driving mine, i will have a few things that are currently temporary permanent, to fix these as i go(which means when the engineer knocks them back LOL)

I Just Went For A Drive Round The Block hehehe if you heard what you thought was a drag car driving, it was probably me... straight out pipes 6inches long off the crown manifolds pointing at the ground. ARGH ARGH ARGH OH YEAH(Tim the tool man voice) just wanted to make sure everything does...

WOO HOO. alternator works again Gday and thanks guys,was not getting power to the black wire on IGN on, the guy who wired the XF had used the falcon air con wire as it went somewhere close to power. i just thought, not doing aircon that way so CHOP... i still have the speedo reading while car...

OH i see, i first wired it up without a relay to save time but it would not crank as the battery was low, so i then fitted a relay again. works fineas far as i can tell.

right, the last one is not getting power when IGn is on so i hope that is all. thanks. what was the problem with the ute, a relay to what was needed? i dont think i have a relay fitted from IGN power to computer etc? what issues did it cause? might be my dash playing up fault?

well, i had better test drive this gearbox before i commit myself to a crap job under the car, hmmmm how to do that with no exhaust and faulty alternator LOL MAX POWER says i need to put power to a wire on the alternator so that should fix it, then i can get exhaust done then i can test...

thanks Mate, i think this is the problem will investigate Tomorrow. Dean

yep, hindsight is wonderfull. in regards to the gear shifter... i have plenty of room i think? how much do i need? bullet confirmed i need to slide back the extension housing enough to disconnect the rod or something(pics on this job would be great if possible?) i really dont want to remove the...

right, i have checked the yellow wire, it has power on when ign is on, its for the alt light in the dash, it makes the light come on when it is earthed(like its supposed to from my understanding) the bigger white wire has constant battery 12V black with yellow trace is maybe the problem? does...

had this pic sent to me as the guy has an interest in my falcon, he went googleing probably and found this on the net and sent it to me. it would be insane i have not seen it done on here yet.

well another day off and its still not finished. i got around to fitting the engine mount bolts, and making a temporary shifter hump to suit the wrong (cortina position) gear shift housing, as i am still waiting for this to turn up. i am also waiting on a slave cyl with smaller bore as the one...

Gday, mined this thread using the search feature, i am having trouble with My alternator, it was working when i removed it from My previous falcon, now it is not charging. i still have my dash cluster playing up so i hope its to do with this? i can hotwire the lamp from the engine bay and...
