This is an old post! I ended up using a breather on the oil filler cap on the passenger side and a catch can on the driver side.

PM sent! Thanks Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the measurements. You selling your base plate and loop? I think it’s DTB002 and DSL012 that I need.

I had some Caltrends in my 00 GT convertible some years ago. They fit pretty well with adjustable straps to tighten em down, but I didn’t like using covers really except for the fact that it was a convertible and the neoprene didn’t get scorching hot in the sun. If it’s a coupe and you’re...

Thanks again for the advice earlier. Just an update. JPC recommends the BMR GT500 loop. I’m checking with Kelly on a loop that will accommodate a 4” driveshaft. I think the 326 with a TR6060 should be a similar config to an 07-09 GT500. Again personal experience would be helpful. I could...

I’ll take a look at CHE. Kelly at BMR wasn’t sure if their loop would fit a 4” driveshaft coupled with a TR6060 and a 326 stroker. I’m checking with a couple of other sources. Thanks

Anyone running a 4” driveshaft with a safety loop on? I’m looking to do the TR6060 swap and use a GForce 4” driveshaft. I also have Kooks headers and the motor is lowered about 1/2” if that affects any clearance requirements. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

I’m running a staggered setup. I’ve got 305/45/18’s NT555R’s on 18x10’s in the rear and 255/45/17’s NT555 G2’s up front on 17x8’s. I’m also using FRPP “Foose Stallion” springs which drop the front and rear about 3/4”. The cast iron Boss 5.0 block probably drops the nose another 1/2”. LOL I...

I would agree to Gabe's point that the sidewall bulge with 305's on a 20x10 would be more severe than 305's on an 18x10 since the taller sidewall is more forgiving. I think the fit on your rims (Jason) looks good! Sidewall bulge should be kept to a minimum on 20" rims for sure though. I'm...

I’m already in and can’t wait to receive it! Should be a nice upgrade!

Anyone have an extra Vortech/Paxton 2.95”, 3.00” or 2.87” 6-rib pulley that will fit a Novi 2200? I currently have a 3.12” 6-rib pulley but looking to step down just a little bit. I don’t feel like dropping $100 to experiment with pulley sizes though. Thanks

Thank you

Yeah, I found the source of the whining noise. It occurred to me that it was like a kazoo, getting air to move through a hole at the right frequency to create a harmonic vibration. Turns out it was from a temporary cap I was trying to use when I removed a BOV. Earlier this year, I swapped...

So, I was at a local Ford dealer and there was a 2014 RS3 sitting in the showroom. I noticed the insulation hanging at the firewall. I was thinking it might be a good idea to add to my 2005. I tried googling it but anyone have a part number handy? Wondering if it's 05-14 or just 10-14. FYI...

I forgot to post an update on this. I swapped the idler pulley and the slight wobble was still there. However, the noise was gone. It hadn't reared it's ugly head until this past weekend (months later) and it had the same tapping noise for a few minutes while cruising some back roads. I...

Ok. I’m picking up a Metco 12% OD crank pulley and I’ll keep my 6-rib 3.12” blower pulley for now. I found a good deal on a UPR tensioner too. Anyone familiar with a calculator to determine if I need a different length belt?

Any updates on this? I'm looking to install a Metco MCP2005 12% OD crank pulley and a heavy duty tensioner. I tend to find new noises everytime I upgrade something! LOL

I'm running a 326 stroker that was built originally for a Terminator with the pistons cut with reliefs for 4-valve heads. Nobody would "fly cut" a relief for my 3-valves heads. So it was cheaper and easier to ordered 3-valve pianos from Manley. A shop did the build for me but it all seemed to...

I'm subscribing to this one! I was told my build flattens out around 6K (due to lower compression?) but I'm very curious what the feedback is on this thread. Once I add a 10-15% OD crank pulley and pulley down a bit with my Novi, I'll get her on the dunno and push it to 7K to see if power...

I find this interesting. When I'm ready to do a TR6060 swap, I'll dig into this thought/opinion a bit more.

You'd need some solution to cover the bulbs though, like the Raxioms do.

I think they look smaller when painted in bright colors. In darker colors (and a little tint) I think they look good.

Exactly. I called CDC directly about those. They never went production with them. The Raxioms are the next best thing unless I do something customer with some OE style buckets.

So this may be part of the issue. I double checked all the pulleys and I found the idler on the blower bracket can wiggle just a bit. Possibly enough to cause the pulley to rub something or vibrate during certain RPMs and possibly cause that chattering noise I heard earlier. So, even though...
