Hello From Down Under........

Hello i use to be a member over 20 years ago ( jamies460 ) i had a1983 Falcon Sedan with a 460 engine in it, that car was sold a couple of years after the Build. I now own a 2008 Ford FG XR8 with a 5.4 Liter Engine, down here its called a Boss 290 , its the Modular 330 ci engine with 4 valves per Piston ive been told its the same engine used in the GT500 Mustangs in the U-S-A from 2007 to 2014 but i may be wrong ! Parts here are very expensive for this motor so i have been looking at Ebay.com for some.... but before i purchase im hoping some members can help me as if i get it wrong its a Expensive Mistake, im now 61 years old & have moved from the Central Coast to Rural NSW out in the Country got married in 2013.

Cool!

Be sure to check out the Modular V8 (4.6L, 5.4L) forum. All of your 5.4 questions can be answered there.

Welcome aboard!
