guys gday
Ive had a few AUs and fords in general over the years and just picked up a neat AU2 ghia as a weekend toy project thing. ,its got all the gear in/on it(leather,sunroof,tickford kit,low ks etc.....) i wanted except the 4.0ltr VCT engine,and have a V8 AU1 fairmont donor car.....
Amusing Ill use all the AU1 engine/gearbox and hardware pointed out in "the list"
Electrically Can I use the AU 1 v8 harness and
ECU ? or is an AU2/3 XR8
ecu a better option for abit more poke stock for stock...before I tune it anyway...
Before it goes in Ill fit a better performing cam,extractors,exhaust,inlet manifold and either flow these stock Au1 heads or look at a better off the shelf head type....?????
Does the car require engineering in NSW for the conversion? or just a blue slip and rerego it...?
Ill post some pics up tommorrow when i pick her up.....thanks guys
