I just rang my mate for an OMVL R90e and off the top of his head he said no more than $250 brand new.
I asked him again for a price on the large Vialle to suit the Falcon, he said they're over $1000, although there are smaller models that are cheaper but would be too small for the I6. |

Go OMVL. You can tune it yourself and they hardly ever go out of tune, except for the first 1000k's while the diaphram stretches.

Even a kit for it will cost you a small fortune! Replace it with an OMVL R90E, you'll never have a problem again. Brand new Vialle convertors are around $350-380 depending on the model, unless you buy from Ford where the $800 is more the figure you will pay.. You've said this once before and i told you i'll take 10 of them if you can get them. Ask for a price on a replacement Vialle to suit a Falcon. People don't buy them because they are minimum twice the price of anything else. I priced a Poliauto (Same as Vialle) 9 years ago and they were $550 back then, a kit for one was about $200, i ended up fitting a new BRC which cost me about $180 from memory and worked just as well as the Poli and was more reliable. Now i stick with OMVL. ![]() ![]()

Wouldn't bother putting a kit in it, for an extra $100 you can get a new convertor. I just fitted a Airod Convertor to my EF which has Tickford Gas, cost around $300.00..

Well Walker just posted that OMVL is cheaper and better ![]() Walker is a mechanic, has his own business and as you will see is on the ball with mechanical problems. As for me, I am a mechanic, licensed for CNG/LPG, don't have my own business, can't stand even the thought of looking at an engine these days, that said, keep on listening to "Walker" and not me ![]() PS Walker is an old bastard too!

If he were over the Northern side of town i'd help him out, there isn't much in fitting a different convertor, how they can justify charging $200 on top of the profit he is making on the price of convertor has got me f**k.
