You're correct.....................if you also remove the midpipe. I tried to cut these tack welds initially........the 2 facing towards the rear I could get to, but the 2 facing over the midpipe, there just wasn't enough room to safely maneuver a 4" handheld grinder w\ disc & reach these 2 tack...

Ok, the verdict is..........fact check-TRUE! This S197 center carrier bearing assembly setup does exactly everything the folks at JXBPerformance said it would do to the letter........ The Track version durometer bushings are very stout when fully compressed into assembly........I could only...

Came in yesterday thru UPS so a day earlier than expected........................... The easy part is done...........now the work begins.......... After checking the 2 choices of rubber isolators (Street or Track), I'm gonna install\go w\ the Track set as they're the firmest durometer version...

FYI.................. Got an email from JXBPerformance this morning that this part has shipped so I'll be expecting this to arrive by UPS on 4-24-24 (according to the UPS shipping manifest JXBPerformance sent). We'll find out soon.

Thanks for posting this...................have also ordered 1 myself w\ both sets of durometer inserts to see which set I'll like installed. FYI..............I contacted JXBPerformance as to why w\ the 10-14 S197's you reuse the OEM spacers but w\ the 05-09 S197's you don't........was informed...

FYI................................... Please refer to pg 1, post #17 in this thread then watch this YouTube video I just put together to go along w\ this: After this I'll digress from any further conversations concerning off idle, low RPM TQ loss using a WOT dyno sheet evaluating a Ford 4.6L...

Ok then that makes sense..........so it would seem that these Ford Hot Rod cams are a very popular cam choice for these 4.6L V8's in Germany thus exist in enough volume to have a lower price as well as availability. I can relate to how you feel..........................

Here is a YouTube video of this guy's 2005 GT street\race car fitted w\ an OEM SBE 4.6L 3V V8 running a set of these FRPP Hot Rod cams w\ the usual complement of engine mods (CAI, mildly port-matched OEM IM w\ CMCV's removed, LTH's & matching midpipe thru a set of Pypes M80 mid mounted...

GriffX, that would be hard for me to say w\ any integrity...........will greatly depend on the tuner doing the tuning......... From what I'm seeing\learning from my own tuning.......it is very possible to get these FRPP Hot Rod cams to behave nice at low RPM operations, but if you really want...

FYI......................... For context, please refer to posts #47 & #50 in this thread............... Here are some pictures of my 4.6L 3V V8's spark advance timing use I gathered from my HPTuners VCM Scanner's Spark Advance graph that I set up to use the 21* BTDC theoretical optimum max...

FYI........................ Here is a YouTube video of an interview w\ Billy Godbold @ Comp Cams that should clear the air on perspective as to why Ford gave the camshaft .006" lift adv dur seat-to-seat cam timing of both the OEM cams & the FRPP Hot Rod cams for tuning optimizing purposes using...

Here's another 1........................ Enjoy!

OP, is this the throttle body you're referring to? If so, this is the Ford 60mm TB that came w\ all '99-'07 E-series & F-series trucks\vans\RV's that were equipped w\ a 6.8L Triton V10 engine as well as all '07-'12 MY GT500's...........thus it will need an adapter to fit a '05-'10 MY GT IM &...

Exactly..................speaking on this............... Most have been conditioned to think these increase HP.........which is not exactly true as HP is calc'd from the exerted TQ amount that can carry over time & distance (or RPM's). Most also don't understand that a chassis dyno is the wrong...

FYI......................all the dyno runs\sheet results of my car were made w\ a Ford Performance Aluminum 1-Piece Driveshaft installed........so going by your given numbers for driveline parasitic loss this really makes a 1-piece aluminum driveshaft usage vs the OEM 2-piece driveshaft design...

FYI.......................... Well, I found out that my WOT testing section (section of road access to a major gas processing plant on the Res that I knew would get cleared sooner or later) @ NAPI International Raceway & Testing Facility is now back in service so I went out yesterday &...

Yes GriffX, they're removed thus aren't in the '08 MY OEM IM's intake runners (I'm using Steeda CMDP's)......been removed for quite some time (last time I had operational CMCV's on my engine was sometime in mid 2018 when I pulled my '09 GT's perfectly fully functional OEM IM & replaced it w\ the...

FYI........................... Disclaimer.........remember all this has to do w\ VCT usage...............fixed cam-in-block designs are set in full by the cam manuf's & usually have to pick their poison to either optimize off idle low RPM & part throttle HP\TQ w\ WOT HP\TQ dropoff or...

1st off, glad that part got you out of a bind. 2nd part, glad you figured out how to install these types of connectors into this thermoplastic fuel line......I usually use heated water to heat this type of line up as the heat application, though somewhat slower, is more uniform. As it cools off...

Well then JC SSP, I don't have to say anything as from an old proverb............"it takes real to discern real"...............meaning that you already know & understand exactly what all of this means when properly applied using the DEPS version of VCT that these 3V's are using........as it is...

Excellent find, DieHarder! You can also go this route if money is more of an issue: https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/dorman-oe-solutions/dorman-oe-solutions-3-8-1-2-5-8-3-4-1-inch-fuel-line-adapter/doe0/800134/v/a/125166/automotive-car-2014-ford-mustang?q=BR3Z-9J280-B+fuel+line&pos=10 Hope...

FYI....................... Here is another video from Ben Alameda Racing titled "Piston Position during Spark Ignition in Crank Degrees"......... Now put what Ben says in this video from all he is demoing using a cam degree wheel & dial indicator to show piston position off crank degrees of...

I tried to post the 2 HPTuners Tuning School videos that I attempted to do some time back.............still a no go w\ those.......... Sorry.

FYI........................... Here are some pictures of my latest datalog recorded today showing this SO ECU applying accel lead-in spark advance timing then reverting back to the established base BKT\MBT Spark Advance timing curve spacing during a mini 4th gear rolling WOT hit that lasted for...

Thanks for these pictures! I know what I'm gonna type will be somewhat controversial, but this indicates to me that Ford realized they made a mistake w\ the 3V's.......the plastic chain tensioner design has always felt to me to have been more of a cost saving thing far more than an operational...
