    Tanner's 4R70W Conversion

    You can lock the converter in 3rd where you choose. There is a table for it. The software is very intuitive, so you'll be able to use it with basic knowledge. Circle D makes a great converter. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    Tanner's 4R70W Conversion

    The Baumann will hold a great deal of power and there are no side effects despite what has been said here. The shift points are set in the TCU and the fill rates for the accumulators/pistons/servos are set by orfice sizes (which can be modified) in the seperator plate. You can set the TCU to...

    Trans is coming out!

    I guess what I mean to say is this: The 132 mph isn't as big a deal as the ~7200rpm. If you guys need some help, give me a shout. As far as Lentech's parts, they put a stock stub in a (supposedly) 1000hp capable trans and I wouldn't believe it either if I hadn't had to fix it. Now, I wouldn't...

    4R70 with Optishift wiring questions

    Probably not, it's my mom's birthday and I'll be in Austin with the folks. I should have my EB tuned with exhaust, intake and all that stuff shortly. I also believe the forecast calls for rain but we do live in Texas and who really knows. I was always very fond of my B&M Pro-ratchet.

    Broke the transmission - now what?

    Not a NASCAR shop, just a Mustang garage.. Lol! I will say this: we started on the transmission just before lunch and were basically finished in enough time for me to make the drive back to Austin to make it to the UT vs. Wyoming game. Thanks for the hospitality, Mike! Keep me posted!

    Broke the transmission - now what?

    No problem, Mike! I've checked and I have everything you need to repair this. I didn't realize I still had all of the parts I do. We'll be in touch.

    Broke the transmission - now what?

    I was asked to add my .02 and this is the bottom line: Jerry Wroblewski (if you don't know who he is, google it) only rated this stub shaft at 500hp and yes that was before there was a heavy S197 mustang but this was related to his input on TCCOA with the T-Bird and Cougar which are heavy...

    It shouldn't matter.. You called dibbs first, which means it should have been yours anyway. Seeing that you called it and then the seller saying, "first to PayPal me the money gets it"... is bull. There are correct ways of doing things and then there's this way.

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    Yeah but the aluminum block doesn't have Siamese bores like a BOSS block and a 3.700" dry sleeved aluminum block (yes even the teksid) is not nearly as strong. Also, I provided the reasoning for the expense of the pistons, they were the L&M piston. Some companies have a "proprietary" piston...

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    Off of receipts.. Where else? No, the Oliver rods that are in the engine were $1300.. The pistons have a extra thick crown as spec'd by L&M but were only available at the time (so we were mistakenly told) in a 3.750" stroke and were $1200 from L&M (that price is on their website if you'd like to...

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    Your rods are 5.850 for a stroker and 5.933 for a stock stroke.. Also, almost every manufacturer makes a big bore stroker piston for the modular. The only odd ball is the 3.700" with a 3.800" stroke and even a couple make those. The problem is, one of the manufacturers believes their pistons are...

    They think they control the market but they're sadly mistaken.

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    You're using a stock length rod because that's what you use with a big bore, if you're running a stock stroke. A .866 wrist pin is the common size, so you shouldn't be boring anything. There are plenty of manufacturers that offer high compression 3v pistons, in a 3.700" bore. Your chamber volume...

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    Well, they fluctuate when the manufacturer thinks that their piston is special. "You've made a 3.800" stroker piston and you've made a 3.700, 3.710", 3.720" and a 3.730" big bore piston. You've also made a combination of the two, at least once and I know this because I'm looking at them. That...

    Considering a 5.4 build/swap please advise

    The company you're buying them from may be an important factor. I saved a bunch of coin (almost half) by shopping somewhere else. The pistons I'm referring to are for a 3.720"/3.800" big bore stroker. One set was already purchased at an outrageous cost and it just wasn't going to happen again...

    Blower Cam Worth It??

    I'd go with Comp springs and a set of their 450 grinds with lockouts. There are other great cam grinds available, too. I'm sure one of our vendors could hook you up with the ones that have been mentioned or something they have had good results with. Good advice! We floated valves at 21.5lbs of...

    Front LP law in Texas

    I went 4 years and was cited on the way home from work. I bought the bracket and went about my business. I figured that it was a good idea based on the thought that I may get stopped for something very trivial only for the officer screw with me over a beer or two at dinner. Not worth it, IMO.

    Front LP law in Texas

    Until someone posts some actual proof.. I run this on mine to stay legal. I refuse to drill holes in my bumper. It's actually a nice piece for the price. That being said, I could have easily made it. Craig's Custom Mustang Brackets http://www.ccmustangbrackets.com/Instructions27DEC07.pdf

    GT500 heat extractor

    He said something along the lines of "I can see why someone would want taillights, etc..but why would anyone want used gaskets?" He's a colossal tool and fails to realize that they are an elastomer (like an o-ring) and are reusable.
