Thanks for the help guys. It seems 5.0L E-series aren't the easiest things to come by in SA.
If I can find a complete one, wrecking or not, I'll grab it. But otherwise this can just be added to the "maybe one day" list... krisisdog wrote: Lol 5kw. You'll get more than 5kw from a half decent cam, and the exhaust note will change again. The wade 1636 gives a 5kw boost with the happiest of dynos. I've seen it many a time. Going anything other than a Wade will mean a lot more $$$ and not much, if anything, more to show for it. My car being a standard auto with standy stally and ECU means I'm very very limited as to what cams I can use. I've heard a 160rwkw EF running with a very lumpy cam and I will shoot the person that says it sounds as good as a V8.

There'd be more work in building another EF up to where mine is at the moment than there would be in changing mine to a V8

big job the engine and trans are easy but the wiring is the hard part , you need an EF or EL as the Donner car for the wiring as you need to change the engine looms and that requires the dash to come out .the k frame's are the same , you need to change the power steer line and the ( if running ) auto lines radiators are the same . i was looking to do the conversion myself .it's a big hasel for a little result

And changing a wiring loom over is a piece of piss. |
