    Engine rebalance

    On cold start I have 60psi oil. Then when it’s been running for a bit at idle (set to 975rpm to keep pressure up) it’s around 14psi. It’s a 3v and I have the melling 340 pump which isn’t the right one I’ve read. So I’m going with a different pump. It’s also a project car so I wanna double check...

    Engine rebalance

    I am gonna be tearing down my engine again after only 5k miles since a complete rebuild. I want to upgrade the oil pump and a few other small items. While it’s apart I want to recheck some bearing clearance measurements (rods and mains). Would you guys reuse rings and bearings since there isn’t...

    Ford performance intake maintenance

    Hey everyone, I rebuilt the engine a few thousand miles ago and this weekend I had the intake off (it’s the ford performance one) and noticed a fair bit of oil in the runners. I’m aware this is most likely from the PCV system and a catch can would help. There seems to be some bolts on the intake...

    2006 GT- How is ambient air temperature measured?

    I’ve had my front bumper off a lot and have never seen that before. It’s a 06. And while data logging I get an ambient air temp that seems accurate

    Starter spinning but not engaging

    The ring gear came off the flywheel. I went under and with the starter removed I spun the ring gear with a screw driver. New flywheel was my solution.

    Trans not going in to any gear but 1st

    Is it commanding gears? I had a similar issue in a 4l60e (Chevy) trans. It would go into first and second but not third or fourth. Third and fourth acted as neutrals. It was a burnt up clutch pack. Just another idea.

    Stock tune only reading front O2 sensors?

    I hope someone can confirm this, but I believe our cars front o2 are used to monitor AFR while the rears only monitor catalytic efficiency. Meaning the fronts are the only ones that are narrowband sensors.

    oil pressure at idle?

    That is with 5w20.

    oil pressure at idle?

    I get about 20-25psi hot at idle. Then as soon as I increase RPM it pressurized to 40-60 quick.

    Where to attach my cherry picker?

    I used the top 2 trans bolts but got longer ones so it’ll thread all the way in and then in the front I believe I used the alternator bolt holes.

    Catalytic converter location

    I am having to put cats back on the car. Currently I have BBK shorties and an O/R X-pipe. Also, I have a AFR gauge that I was looking into the instruction manual and it states to have the sensor for the gauge 18in from manifold but upstream from the cats. If I move the cats and downstream O2...

    O2 sensor plug color

    I have a fresh rebuilt engine and I’m battling o2 codes. I’m wondering if anyone has a picture or knows what side of the car the blue or green o2 plugs in the harness go to? Thanks for the help

    Mishimoto radiator hose issues

    Hello all, I have always used mishimoto radiator hoses in the car back when it was a stock 06 and now that I upgraded to the 07+ coolant crossover. The issue I have is my lower hose gets kinked when I put it in place. The same happened when I had the stock crossover on too and the older hoses...

    Remote oil filter mount

    The strut tower is a sturdy surface but it’s 1.5 feet up from the stock location. Is that gonna give me oiling issues?

    Remote oil filter mount

    I’m aware of how to install it. My question is regarding the new filter height compared to the stock one. If the mount moved the new filter higher or lower in respect to the original. Is that an issue?

    Remote oil filter mount
