1987 Ford Falcon S pak from Australia and New Zealand - Comments

Broken Three Diffs and over heated Transmission due to burn-outs.

Blown head gasket, broken power steering pumps, broken thematic clutch fans, broken harmonic balancer and broken gudgeon pins due to very high revs.

I drive my XF Falcon very hard. I perform lots of burn-outs and drag racing with my car. In the three years I have had my car I have built a very quick 250 X/Flow 6 cylinder engine. Engine includes high performance strip cam, balanced crank and rods, high compression pistons, ported head and oversized valves, Romac Harmonic balancer, 600cfm 4 barrel Holley carburetter and Red-line manifold, Pacemaker extractors and 2 1/2 inch mandrel bent exhaust. The engine produces 250hp at the flywheel and the car just could not take this punishment so I have had to replace my diff with a 4 pin Borg warner diff centre with 28 spline axles out of an EB Falcon. I also had to replace the standard automatic with a 4 speed manual single rail steel case borg warner gearbox out of an XC Falcon which has since broken, I am now opting to use a 5 speed supra gearbox conversion as no other ford compatible gearbox will withstand the shear abuse which is placed on my car. Other modifications I have carried out on my XF Falcon include 3 inch lowered, 16x8 inch mag wheels, 2pack re-spray (keeping original colour), sports leather steering wheel and EA Falcon centre console. I have also installed a full Clarion Stereo and sub-woofers.

Thanks for the info - it will put it to good use.
