I recently purchased a new project, a 6 banga XE and I want to bolt in a cleveland, do I need to change cross members ? or will it just bolt in? this is my first V8 so i'm clueless, i've played with falcon 6's for 10 years time for a change.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You need XA-XE V8 mount plates that bolt to your crossmember(which are all the same and NOT removable) and V8 mounts for XR-XE.

I put a clevo into my xd which was a six and its an easy conversion, except the stock 51 wasnt as quick as the 250 xflow
 so it came out again.

Nah 200hp at the tyres crossflow
351 couldnt keep up haha not too hard to make a 250 go faster than a stock v8

Just some headers would have got you more than 200hp with the cleveland and s**t more torque than the 250.

No it wouldnt have, it wasnt rebuilt , and in an xd fairlane they only made around 150-160 kw brand new at the flywheel.
That particular six was quicker than a stock xd 351 clevo, what more can i say  My 250 was making close to 185kw at the engine, more than the stock clevo. |
