A falcon with i assume a J series? I've got to see that. Sounds cool as hell actually.
Yea J35 with garrett GT35 on two maps for 91 octane and e85 or any blend between the two. Controlled by an AEM infinity ecu. Miata 6 speed behind it on an adapter plate I built. I’ve posted pics of it here a few times. Right now it’s apart for a new front end and I’m setting the engine back pretty far.

Just keep the hood closed.......Heck, I almost put a carbed Mazda 2.0 MA w/5sp in my roller 65 Barracuda when the motor was out. Only thing that stopped me was no clutch pedal in my 65. ~Same HP as the slant.....half the torque. Truck weighed 500 less than the 65.

Honestly the sound is what usually makes people ask “what the hell is in that thing?” It really does sound much different than the usual small block or straight 6.
 
That 'natural' 6 is gonna sound like a low note out of a pipe organ unless you get '180' headers and pair up some lobsided cylinders to each side. give it that uneven V8 pulse sound. A lot of effort to appease some idiots! I bet that thing would smoke a 260...make that a stout 460!

It made 630hp on gas and the car weighed 2700 pounds +- before I cut it apart for the new front end. Now it’s on corn alcohol and I’m hoping it weighs less when I’m finished. It better smoke a whole lot more than just a 260. It was scary with all the stock suspension on “just” gasoline.
 
Did some measuring tonight. Decided ill save a little coin and put a holley stand alone dash in it instead of a million gauges. Mocked up the revised map sensor bracket (no pictures, has some color words on it). Still waiting for my bulkhead fittings to be made. Kinda at a stand still on parts/time to mess with it.

That's just ridiculous. You have genius skills beyond measure. I'm plum proud to kinda halfway know you. .....and I ain't even a Honda fan. LOL

Lol thanks RRR but the path was (mostly) paved for me. I became friends with a well know import tuner/racer who makes stupid power with these. And I’m basically following his footsteps. BTW his makes 1029hp. About double what mine makes.

Haha! Ok I will.
I'm just waiting for his to go back together so I can take a ride in it. dont care what make it is or what powers it, that car has to be a riot to be in.
As soon as my boat is finished all of my focus will be on the falcon. A seat is saved for you my friend. Your intercooler will be front and center after all.

You just had to be a boat guy also. I have a fairly clean hallett vector I haven't taken out since 2019. Need to go through the carb and change the throttle control and itll be pretty much dialed. Just kinda lost interest.

Omg one of my favorite boats. If you ever get rid of that thing give me a shot at buying. Please. Mine is a 21 commander conquest open bow jet. Dominator pump. Getting a TT496 BBC. I’ve gone through the entire boat in the last year.

Ill keep you, and the 15 other people in mind when that day comes. It was rough when I got it, got it cheap and couldn't say no. Now I'm over it, but attached to it. Its my first float so I dont know what its fate holds just yet.

Thats a real sharp looking commander actually.
 
At least if you sell it to me it will be 5 minutes away.

I posted a few pics and some more info on this thread.
Turbo change
 
My boss’ brother in law has a schiada 24 RC with a lot of Catalina ski race history. Twin turbo BBC, v drive, 2 speed. I’ve had my eye that boat for about 6 years. I have a standing offer on it. He’s just not quite ready to let it go.
