I think they look bad ass in there... very happy they fit nice

I would like to see the gauges in there too. Pics would be sweet.

Matt, did you get a weight on the stock fuel tank?

Matt, did you get a weight on the stock fuel tank?

Not yet Art.. Im going by what Paul did.. he said it was a 35-40 lb differnce going to a fuel cell. The evap system is like another 15-18lbs with all the lines and crap.

once I have everything bolted on I will be weighing it in the shop on some scales. It will be interesting that's for sure

Yeah, it's hard to get a good idea what everything weighs, until you put it on some scales and see the difference in total!!! That's when I noticed mine....

Matt are you aiming for sub 3000?

That wold be so ridiculous.. That thing would be so fast, wait a minute- it already is.

I wish they made an electric water pump for the new 5.0.... the thermostat housing is now a bit differn't then before. Im hoping to get it running in a week or two when the rest of the stuff arrives. Open headers dam right lol

One of the Vendors, BBR I think, has said there will be one soon.

The car weighed 3060 last season with out driver.... so this season with the cage in the car and all my tricks I hope it will be at 2900-2950 with out driver if all the stars line up maybe even a bit less... but I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch

Yes

Im still waiting for a set of under drive pulleys or underdrive crank lol to be made.

I think ATI made a crank pulley but it's not under driven

IW can make it for you, just tell them what you want. They did all my custom stuff from my design.

What is the cost of something like that.... Im afraid to ask lol $5-$600?

 

[05stroker]

Should be about the same as stock one just not on the shelf. Give Brad at IW a call , he will take good care of you.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

+1 on what 05Stroker said... They did an awesome job on his setup.

Matt. Before buying an IW pulley, check post #162. This is on a new 5.0

Mine was spun on the balancer along with everything else that I could spin . It was perfect . Is there something on the 5.0 that is different ? Are they externally balanced ?

I don't know if there is any difference. I just remembered reading that there may be a problem with the IW pulley for the 5.0's & figured it was worth pointing out to Matt.

I believe Adam's issue with the IW pulley was with an overdrive pulley, and Matt is thinking about an underdrive pulley. I don't know if that makes a difference, but just throwing that out there.

Well I oppened up my SCT advantage software and typed in my computer code so I could start a base fire up tune. The code off the computer isn't coming up SCT says I need the strategy code off these ford racing kit's they add data dailey. Have to get power to the fuse box so I can get the ignition on and read it.

Just waiting on this fuel regulator.... once that is on I want to change the oil , get the h-pipe that im waiting for on and start breaking in the motor on the dyno and get a feel for the tuning on the new 5.0.

I think because I don't have the AC or Power steering pump attached mine might make an additional few (2-6hp increase) maybe lol
