Hey guys just wondering how hard it is to fit a 351 windsor into an ed I'll be running straight gas so emissions in vic at least aren't a problem just gotta run cats.
But yeah how hard is it to stick a 351 into a ed. |

The V8 e series have a hard metal pipe to run the coolant from the passenger side too the drivers side on the bottom hose.
What engine did your ED leave the factory with?

It's a xr8 so no issues with mounts etc.. the motor is gone thats why I wanna stick a 351 in it I wanna run straight gas like I said for emissions and less headaches with computers etc..
I haven't got the cash right now but how hard is to stick a blower onto it with straight gas. |

That makes life much easier.
You should be able to get it emission compliant on petrol with a 351 windsor but I don't know the rules in Victoria.

Yeah I'm not too savvy with computers so I'll just stick to the gas I had a esp 10 years ago with a 351 clevo on straight gas made 400hp no probs and I know gas well.
Just gotta figure out what to do for an ignition system I was looking at those ford racing crate motors looks like they come with a dizzy so just gotta find out if it'll run gas cause the compression ratio is perfect for gas 10.5:1 is ideal for gas and thats what some of their motors run. |
