BA/BF XR6T/XR8/Tornado/Pursuit
hi guys, so im thinking about getting a B model xr6t/xr8/tornado or pursuit ute, im torn between which to get, id like 6speed manual but would settle with a 5 speed. kms dont matter as itd be rebuilt anyway. i have a 5.4 triton which has been okay and i have a 6.0 gto so im wondering if it would be better to go the route of a xr6t or tornado , obviously tornados are alot more pricey. i dont live in aus anymore and the vehicle will be getting converted to lhd before reaching its final destination. would love everyones opinions. its gonna end up as a cruise car for one of my friends charity car clubs, i love v8s but the turbo noise is golden. also anyone know of a lhd conversion done for one of these ever?

Fair enough on the Tornado call. I totally get that.
The XR version of the engine is almost as capable. You can read about the differences here. Just keep in mind this article is referring the FG and FGX version of the engines https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/fpv...the-difference
Power and torque is sky’s the limit if you are prepared to modify the engine. Even if left stock and you only custom tune one it will dust off your friends stock or similarly tuned LS1 without too much drama. Not sure about the Audi but I suspect that too, grip dependent.
