Ba Falcon Utes - Any Feedback?

So my old man's on his 5th falcon, I'm no stranger to them. But I've been planning on buying a commUTEer for a while so I can give the ke16 some TLC. Originally a jap built diesel was the plan (Rodeo most likely) but the idea of a Falcon dedicated LPG ute came up. And the XR6 is a nice looking car at least, and should be cheap to run.

But I swore I'd never own a Falcon. I hate them.

so does anyone have some good objective feedback on BA Mark II falcons, particularly utes. Problems, issues, what to expect etc?? Worked on many, driven one into the ground, all that sort of stuff?

I might hate them but not based on much fact. I just hate them.

Let me know your thoughts.

Looking for a box in good condition, don't want a clapped out old sucker. And a column to go with it. Prefer to get from adelaide, but if there's a good one in Melbourne I can arrange someone to look at it and pick it up.

Cool Ke10 Race Car

another crazy KE10. I love this thing, it's keeping up with early long bonnet porsches up until the long straight sections, I'm guessing they're 2.4 Litre porsches! As a 911 owner I have to say I never thought thought it'd be possible to get my 5K running this quick!

looks like unreal fun

Urgent - Valve Spring Retainer Dimensions

Guys

I'm trying to sort out valve spring retainer sizes for my 5K. Performance springs have a set of performance springs hey usually use on 3/4K's but the inner spring ID wont fit my 5K retainer.

My question is, can someone please measure their 4k/3K spring retainers for me. Take a look at my PDF attached, I need the dimension of the 16.5mm measurement.

Let me know

Not The Only One (mad Ke20 2dr Wags)

I read a few of the chopper blogs from dudes in the US. Chopper Dave snapped this pic and posted it on his site, it's a mad looking rolla so I thought I'd post it here.
