Hi Zac,

yep the mustang engine for the 8s and a locally developed twin 
cam head for the 6s, including a turbo version :) From what Ive 
heard they are having to DE-tune this one to keep it below V8 
power levels :)

> yeah but in the cooking model bluebird/skyline, unless you call a TRX performance!!!

> You know as soon as Tickford get those donks in from US they immediately pull them 
>down and rebuild them to get them to the 220kw power rating. if I believe what people 
>tell me then these engines are the rejects from the us ford explorer range?
> they're switching to ohc engines later in the year anyway arent they?

manage that. The
 opposition, HSV VX GTS was 251kw. Monaro GT CVS - 244.5kw. The best of the sad 
looking cars was a 
turboed Torana V8 - 338.9Kw ~ 443.95Hp.
