Ok, well I'm buying a Ef fairmont instead of an XR6 because... well, just because. But I still want to have the engine put out the samish power as the XR6, so I was thinking, I could buy the XR6 head and ECU off a wreaker (get it crack tested and chemically cleaned of course) and bolt them on.
But no sane wreaker wants to seperate thehead from the block of a working engine, so I was wondering how much could I pick up a XR6 (ef or el) engine for? If I could fine one in good order I might just sit it up on an engine stand in the shed and start investing serious cash into it, and just run the standard 4 liter fairmont engine until it's ready But XR6 engines might be hard come by :( (I'm not sure myself), so what's the retail on a resonable standard Fairmont/Falcon EF - EL engine? Thanks heaps |

if your gonna spend serious cash on it, dont bother goin the XR motor... Get a falcon motor as there is not much difference at all... Get them for around $300 around places, especially the trading post.
