 Posted: Thu Apr 05, 2007 8:03 pm Post subject: Quickest Unopened E-Series 6cyl |
 |
|
I was wondering has anyone dipped into the 14's with an un-opened E-Series falcon?
By that I mean the rocker cover hasn't been off besides maybe an oil leak repair 
I've ran a 15.06 and I havent seen quicker yet.
I do plan on going quicker then I will play with it some more.
Anyone wanna de-throne me? |

Posting so that this one sits in my "watched topics".
Off-topic (kinda), I know of a bloke with an un-opened AU XR6 that has ran a 15.08 (or very close to that, it was 15.0* < something...). |

With what head?? Stocko or tickford?? I'm pretty sure a unopened but modded XR6 will run quicker then its GLi counterpart |

So what?
15.5 stock, add a decent set of diff gears and good rubber, intake and exhaust mods, run 1/4 tank of fuel with no spare tire and youll get a 14.9.
I know of probably half a dozen e-series and AU's that have dipped into the 14's unopened |

so what.....u could say that about the whole topic
i was trying to point out that strip times tend to be faster...i thought those times were for stockies but as you point out with stupid drag gears you could do a lot better |
