I love my XA/C Fords.After driving my EB Fairmont 5 litre from Perth to Melbourne, to Sydney and back in `99, they really are totally stamped into my Ford notebook, I`m biased, I`ve worked for Ford in a mechanical position since `94, and well, theyre my favourite driver since, I thought the 5.4 3V was nice, till it had to be pulled to bits all the time, and the Boss is just plain horrible.(No, it is, and no amount of dyno time will change my attitude to it,its a plain pink skinned piglet) AU 5 litres are beaut, but I`ve never owned one yet, but plan to. IMO AU Five litres are future classics, only for the reputation forged by its Windsor heritage. They really are Fords best incarnation of the compact V8.(Clevo blah mafia wah wah) And theres the rub. Compact engines are all the rage in todays market. Ford forgot its heritage and blew its beans on Boss and Hawaii Five O.
