WOOOAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! The Typhoons and Tornados have a 6-Speed manual behind a 4.0L engine. I want one of those transmissions. Will they bolt up behind our 4.0Ls?

Awww, nevermind. It's a 6 speed with 2 overdrives. I'd like a 6 speed where 6th gear is overdrive, 5th is 1:1 and the other gears are geared lower than a 5 speed transmission.

I still wonder if they'll bolt up behind our 4.0Ls.

when i was younger we had a farm and the only thing roo's were good for was target practice & dog food however now days alot of restaurants do sell it

kangaroo trivia a roo cant walk backwards,a single bound can be over 30 feet,
it is also the only national emblem legally allowed to be eaten,come on down and whilst you are here why not try some crocidile,or some emu (it is said em-u em as in steam not e-mu enough aussie trivia for a day



Roo tastes good! I also liked croc too. Didn't get to try any Emu though. I was in Rockhampton on the East coast in Queensland while on military ops going up north from there. Good times, and I almost caught me a wallaby for a pet too! Damn thing bounced off right when I grabbed fur.

The Ford GT??? If you can afford it more power to you. BTW, even though I like the new C6 ZO6 Vette's more than the Ford GT it still would kill all!
 






its not a "ford GT" is a 4 dr sedan "GT" built by FPV of austrailia, not the $150k GT here in the US
 






All those cars are killers of all other cars... Damn, I want one. I don't care which one, just as long as I get one I'll be happy.
 






this is what started the fpv GT http://www.fouronthefloor.com.au/garage/garage.html
check the gtho and the 620 hp 9,600 rpm 351 cleaveland super falcons
trivia the factory gtho phase 3 was the fastest 4 door production sedan built until lamboghini came out with a V8 twin turbo in the late 80's, also check out the torana's (GM) all built in the late60's to late 70's
they are all modified production cars
local V8 racer has improved the fpv version http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/car-review/ce6082.aspx
 






that falcon looks more like the 500 that is sold here than a mustang....maybe the discontinued contour?....you gotta look at the doors and the rear quarter panels...i dont think it shares much w/ the mustang but the engines...the grill and bumpers are just plastic and are probably 99-04 mustang...id love to see a view of under the hood and under the body.
