No its the choice of bogans here in Australia its either a that or if they are holden (GM) guys the go for a VB commo the mustang of the same era in the states does have similar lines we have a few mustangs out here there just as crap as the falcons no offence it just seems that paying $156c per ltr why go and get a car that weighs 2 tonn with a big V8.........(thinks to him self very hypocritical seeing as I have a 5.7 in the garage as well) each to their own but V8s are getting cheaper to buy and more expensive to run thats why I bought a scooter as well ( I know its gay but it has been to the servo 2 times in 2 months and done about 500km)

nope not a call for help... I like my dattos but something woth a bit of powere would be nice...
I'd really like an XA-XC hardtop but they don't rust.... they dissolve! I'd like a 289/302/351 windsor as they don't "bleed" like a 302/351 cleveland... YES there IS a 302 Cleveland... it's a australian invention! I have heard that the windsors are almost up there with our beloved A series for durability and revability... the dattos will be staying... for when my fuel money is gone for the week!... I prefer to have a V8 in something designed for it!

no it has the same block as a 351 clevo but the cylinder heads, crank and rods were an "australian only" proposition!
put 302C heads onto a 351 they raise the compression ratio to somewhere between 9:1 - 10.5:1...
