Re: need HELP!!!

Nice. It feels good doesnt it. You should try to get some pics up. Im always keen on seeing another tc.

1. Remove bumper stickers.

2. Crossflow turbo or

3. 302w or

4. 302w turbo, twin turbo

I would be going for the crossflow turbo or 302w turbo. It would be a ****ing awesome machine then for sure!

302w cortinas are around in bulk. And crossflows are apparently a bolt in, pretty much. So they are both very doable options.

What are you after? Street/strip, cruiser, all out drag weapon?

Re: need HELP!!!

thanks, i thinking of the turbo. the only problem is i don't know anything about it, so i might lean towards the 302w even though petrol costs more than gold!!!

Petrol... ...bar that.... ....LPG all the way.

More so for the turbo option. But if I was going to run a 302w it would be on LPG as well.
