Thanks for the replies. It seems I may have a couple of options. As for the splitting up of the CDC Classic and splitter, I'd prefer to do my own splitter, so that may work. I'll send an email to Anthony to see what he has, and we'll see if we can get some parts changing hands in the near future.

Yup. I'm a real dude with first world problems. :rolleyes:

Looking to purchase. Figured I'd see if anyone had one available. Color is not important, but the right color will increase my price.

I have Roush straight pipes available. Price is right, so PM me if interested.

Do you still need the intake? I'm dropping a Kenne Bell on my 3V, and I won't be needing my C&L. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

18x11 ET52 with 25mm spacer on the front. You'll need the ARP studs on the front.

If your car is equipped with dual climate zones, the drivers side will blow cold and the passenger side warm with low freon. Happend in my 06 Explorer. AC also shuts the compressor of briefly with a misfire code. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

This is wonderful. You really wheeled that thing. As an S197 owner, I want to know how the S550 compares in stock trim to your slightly modified S197. I'll be tuned in for additional updates. Don't be a stranger.

Don't think that nobody is paying attention. I'm in a similar boat, as I'm in my first full year of autoX. Best of luck with the rest of your season.

Kelly's response is exactly what I'm talking about. Let's see if a UPR rep chimes in to defend their position.

My thoughts on UPR... They are a copycat company that may make the world's greatest K-member (or any other product)... but I'll never know because I won't buy their stuff. I prefer to stick with companies that develop, test, support, and ultimately improve their product. Some drag racers...

Norm, First, I'm an engineer in the overhead crane business, so mild steel and welding is what we do. Your yield strength is in the correct ball park for DOM tubing, and you are correct the steel used has a low carbon content (but I'm sure you knew that). The heat affected zones to which...

I looked into the BMR A-arms and K-member for my car at one time, and here is what I concluded: K-Member is not as stiff as the stock or Maximum Motorsports model. My final opinion is the lower weight will likely be a wash from a handling perspective (the lower inertial forces and rearward...

I've just been enjoying the ride for the spring. No mods. Just legally going as fast as I can. This run landed me P2 in the Triad Sports Car Club 50th Anniversary AutoX at Winston Salem Fairgrounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEaSdukCkGU And just for the fun of it, I moved over to...

AutoX at Greensboro Coliseum this past weekend. I managed to bring home the hardware, but only by 0.063 seconds. In the 79 car field, we had 10 entries in CAM (5 were Mustangs). Our club is going to change CAM to a PAX class to keep the CAM-S cars from walking away with the class if any of...

Great to see you're climbing the ladder quickly. Taking an analytical approach, as you are doing, will speed up the learning curve significantly. I'm on my 6th autocross, and the main thing I have to learn is patience. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Did any of our Mustangers go to the NC 1/2 mile this past weekend? I want to hear some results.

Harry makes it easy to share. After my wife (maiden name "Schrenk"), he's my favorite German.

My 3.55:1 gears were installed at Fastlane Motorsports. After digging in, they recommended I install an adjustable upper link to correct pinion angle tolerances. If the pinion angle is in tolerance and the wheels are centered in the wheel well, then I'll live with the bump stop issue. Contact...

I believe one of my favorite auto geeks over at Engineering Explained did a YouTube video on the STB. It does a good job of explaining the benefits. IIR, it's the same reasoning the coupe is stiffer than the convertible. Any open top surface is an invitation for chassis flex which leads to...

I managed to get out and have some fun with SVT Superfest at VIR-Full. Trip to VIR confirmed some stickier rubber was a huge help. Took 5.5 seconds off my PB. Managed to have my ABS go south on my during the session, and I took a trip through the grass going into turn 1. You can hear the...

Best of luck on your run. Weather will be perfect!!! Highs in the 60's with a crisp breeze. Let us know your numbers.

I haven't weighed the car as a before and after the engine build. I estimate my BBB added 30 pounds to the front end. To counteract the additional weight, I used Prothane mounts trimmed 1/2" to lower the CG of the motor. The net handling effects (and what I feel the cause is) are as follows...

I did the rear gear change to 3.55s this winter. New rotors and Carbotech pads (XP12) all around. Should be able to go fast and stop... right? Wrong. At 138.8mph at the end of the front strait at VIR, I get on the brakes for turn 1. The ABS has taken a dump on me (I didn't know it), and I...

OK. I confess... I am jealous.
