Can anybody give me a full build list for the 220kW AUII Tickford XR8 motor. I'm especially interested in cam specs, injector sizing, valve sizes, head flow data, compression ratio.

Thanks in advance for any help

Cheers

A very very under rated car!!! possably one of the best performance/drivers cars Ford/Tickford ever made those 220 XR8s.

What does that mke yours Mr Butler? God talk about sounding like a preacher! Not that I can talk. Was going to road test the silver te50 for sale in car sales.com for $30,000.
Economy or performance, There's no dought I'd take the latter.

I drove a VS supercharged statesman today. Quick cruiser I tell ya, probably low 15 second quarter. One of the few Holdens I like. It was either one of these or the te50.
