I have a 5.0Ltr Tickford out of a Nf Fairlane Ghia.
Is it worth putting it into my EB Falcon to replace its 5.0ltr which is not a tickford What are the differences between them anything that would make a swap worth while?

Yep true but the eb/ed tickfords run the standard HO 5L, nothing special at all.

SFA difference between the two mate.
Only thing that would make you wanna do it is if the NF engine has less kms and in better condition. Both are still E7 heads, HO manifold and cam etc.

no worries guys cheers for all your help
I think i will do the swap anyways because i am pulling the motor to respray the engine bay. It has reco heads etc on the tickford motor and i dare say a few less k's so why not

They were my thoughts is it one of these fairlanes with factory gas with a tickford LPG Fit tag in the engine bay ?

im no genius but there is no tickford v8 because the tickford is australian and the 50 h 0 is american the only tickford is the au handbuilt xr8 with the roller rockers and all that extra stuff

The GT's and Sprints use the Cobra engine.. Much the same as the Explorer truck engine in AU's with better cam .. While a 5.0 runs the E7 heads there won't be too much performance gains.. Tickford didn't realy touch the V8 till the TE series...

Someone just put the badges on there. Wouldn't be Tickford Motor unless someone did an engine change.
