hey im new to this game haha i have just aquired an 1990 EA Falcon 3.9 CFI for the grand total of $600 now that i have successfully laid that engine to rest Blow head gasket warped head i need a replacement how hard would it be to fit EF/EL xr6 engine and does anyone know where a good place to find a half cut woould be i live on the sunny coast thanks all


will

No real need for an halfcut, just aquire a complete motor, the loom, ECU, smartlock bypass, an EBII > EL fuel pump, an airbox and that should be all, search the many el motor into ea / eb topics there is.

excellent cheers mate was just getting my wires crossed to much advice from too many mates haha

Will you be using all the EA stuff like water pump etc. You might aswell if your ganna use a EL ecu go all the way. Injection manifold, serpentine belt setup, thermo fans. You would most likly find that you can buy a EL cheap enough to use as a donor car and just swap the whole lot over. If you bought a EL engine, ecu and everything else you need to do the job that would equal what you can buy an EL for these days.
