And I'm a qualified heavy diesel mechanic.
So yes, you could say I'm a bit of a gearhead.
I also do maintenance on my friends' bikes, a CBR 600, a custom bobber, and a Yamaha R6.
The Ford V8s, are they the ones with Garrett turbos, or Holset turbos?
Neither in fact.
One is a "92 LTD with a 302 Windsor and the other is a "02 BA Falcon ute with a 5.4l
OHC 3valve V8.
Whoa, I must have had a brain fart, I though you were talking about Ford V8 turbodiesels for some weird reason.
I wish we had utes here in the states. I always wanted a pickup truck as low as a car and with an LS1 or something in it. I also think the 4.0L Falcon Turbo engine is awesome, but I've never actually seen it in action or heard reviews. I just know it has a GT40 turbo attached to it from the factory.
