Doogs Posted February 26, 2008 Author Report Posted February 26, 2008 Cheers philbey, Will do. I figure if i can get them free i may as well make use of them ! :jamie: Unfortunately still waiting for the car to turn up though :P If anyone sees one let me know, also feel free to check out my wanted thread. (link in sig) I am willing to consider reasonably priced cars interstate (mainly SA + NSW) Thanks Quote
phatke36 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) I was told that i should get my distributor re-graphed? anyone know what that involves? or a price maybe? It involves taking to a auto elecy and they change the springs in dizzy to suit cam making more power and motor running hell of a lot better, $160 sounds about the right price depending on the auto elecy you go too. Holy sh*t you can tell i haven't been on here for a while. Edited February 29, 2008 by phatke36 Quote

Doogs Posted March 3, 2008 Author Report Posted March 3, 2008 Fair enough, looks like the cortina will be fun. :wink: What does it run down the 1/4 ? Quote
phatke36 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 Havent had a chance to run it yet been off road since blew the diff at power cruize 2005 was coming second in dyno comp but was rained out. I went to cruizetime earlier in that year and won dyno comp only pulled 204 hp at wheels wasnt happy but couldn't complain cause only running a standard 465 holley. Ive spent more on it now, 600 holley, electric water pump and thermo, later model dizzy ( which gives more horseys and makes car run smoother), custom pipes and 3 inch mandrual bent exhaust and ignition system and coil. It is vertually same set up as my brother's and a mate of mine and my brother has run a best so far 12.30 @ 111mph and our mate (otd250) has run 11.70 @114mph it is fastest n/a six in aust and brothers is third (this all posted on FORDAUSTRAILIAFORUMS.COM) so ill be happy anywhere in the 12 sec bracket.
