Ace

I wouldn't say that would be amazingly quick on the 1/4. Not much quicker than an XE at all. But in gear speeds would be fantastic!

any big block box will bolt to a v6

i do belive the F25 box is wider however (the original cav v6 box) as george was looking into an F28 conversion when he had a cav and was told he needed an engine mount spacer or somthing..

Nah the F25 gears are longer than a week in jail.
Thats the 1st thing that needs changed when doing a V6 conversion and you want it to be quick.

I agree with the F25 being horrendously long. 110mph in 3rd says it all!
