    MT82 lockout issues

    This is the listing on FPP: FLYWHEEL LIGHTWEIGHT BILLET 8 BOLT MODULAR-COYOTE I bought it about $100 cheaper from LMR: Ford Performance Flywheel Advertised as 20lbs (9lbs lighter than stock)

    MT82 lockout issues

    There is some feedback in the shifter handle due to the fact that it is attached directly to the transmission, but I don't consider it to be objectionable. It doesn't really introduce any NVH to the body of the car, because there is no direct attachment. The aftermarket brackets that are used...

    MT82 lockout issues

    I have a 2012 GT that I have owned since it was new. I never noticed the problem on the street, but once I started going to the drag strip, I was horrified at the frequent lockouts, mostly 2-3. I went through all the typical "treat the symptoms" fixes, and there are many. I pretty much tried...

    Anyone running the MGW for the tr-3650

    As far as the MGW shifter goes, I can't speak for the earlier S197 models. I bought a 2006 GT brand new and never felt like I had any issues shifting. However, while I occasionally drove it hard, I never did any flatfoot shifting. I now own a 2012 GT that I also bought new and never had any...

    Clutch issues

    It sounds like you would have already checked everywhere for leaks, and the fact that everything worked for some time would suggest the install was done correctly. It does seem like a hydraulic issue to me and replacing the clutch master was definitely a step in the right direction. Do you...

    New '14 GT

    These are the mufflers I was referring to: M-5230-MGTCA1 (Not the Sport) They used to be around $500. Now they are around $725. I spent most of my life just over the border in Milford and then Hopedale, Massachusetts, but I moved to North Smithfield RI about 2 years ago. Where did you work up...

    New '14 GT

    The Ford GT 500 mufflers sound great, no drone, quiet enough around the neighborhood, but they open up and sound even better at WOT. When I bought my car, it had Legato mufflers on it and you needed hearing protection to drive it any distance on the highway.

    New clutch= new flywheel?

    If you don't mind providing some additional information, it would be easier for people to offer better advice. Basic car information is always helpful, including any modifications that have already been made and any plans for how you intend to use the car. I just did this work on my 2012 GT...

    New clutch= new flywheel?

    If I understand correctly, those parts are rated for 875 ft-lbs of Torque (according to American Muscle). I didn't see any mention of an SFI rating, which it may or may not have. The FPP billet steel flywheel is SFI rated and would probably be a good replacement. Resurfacing the...

    2014 Mustang GT Fuel Injector Help

    Have you done any data logging (fuel related PIDs, i.e. fuel trims, MAF freq, MAF Flow) with your tuning device? Are they still using the SCT X4? As far as the injector cleaning goes, could contaminants in the fuel system re-introduce another issue? If cleaning the injectors solved the issue...

    6r80 with 4.56 rear gear?

    I know you were asking about experience with this transmission/rear axle combination, which I don't have, but I do have experience with the 6R80 in my 2014 GT. You may already be aware, but I will mention this just in case. The 6R80 first gear is 4.17 which would combine with the 4.56 for a...

    slonison, if you're still collecting data, how would I send my car's AS-Built info to you? Would that help your cause?

    Flywheel Torque

    I did end up using the Arp flywheel and pressure plate bolts with the ARP assembly lube and blue Loctite. I did some online research and evidently "torque to yield" (TTY) hardware proports to have some benefits over traditional tightening methods. However, the hardware is "one time" use and...
