do you have any worth while tuners over there? And that looks like a Ford taurus, an older model one anyways.

Blair_355 · 15 Sep 2008, 04:21 am

Yeah we do.

01mmmz28 · 15 Sep 2008, 04:23 am

^ what kind of cost are you looking at for a cam tune?

Blair_355 · 15 Sep 2008, 04:44 am

Never priced it, so no idea.

It reminds me of a taurus too, but isn't commodore GM? is that 304 cubic inches?
Edit: wikipedia rules, you Aussies are lucky getting v8 rear wheel drive cars in the 80s and 90s, is that motor shared with any sports cars? You and Johnny are both rollin in your 5.0s vanilla ice style now.

I know, auto is ghey but I will be looking at a 6 speed for it later this year.
Still have the patrol but thinking about selling it. Patrol has really good fuel economy. This doesn't have as good.
