    Limp mode problems

    Get a DVM...and put it across the battery terminals. Should be aprx 12.4 vdc with eng off. With eng on....and idling, should be in the 14.7 vdc range. If it's still 12.XX, your alternator is dead. Switch DVM to read ACV. should be a few Millivolts at most. If it's more than...

    Random High Engine Temp

    Here's what I found did reduce under hood temps a bunch.... like by 40 F. Ceramic coated LT's and hi-flow cats. The new hi-flow cats are bigger diam (4") but shorter than oem, but are located below the seats. Oem cats are at base of eng bay and run stupid hot. The ceramic coated LT's...

    Random High Engine Temp

    This is why the radiator is vacuum filled, so no air pockets or air bubbles. At 60 mph, the eng fan should never be on...even with AC on. The high / low fan speed thresholds are set in software....(low and high eng coolant temps). These can be independently adjusted using a hand held tuner. On...

    Which of these (modded Bullitt vs GT500)

    I Have a 2010 Black mustang. They look good when polished to a mirror finish....which lasts all of a few days. Very few Bullitts were made in Black. If you wanted a bullitt, get a green one.

    1 hp = 746 watts. 50 kw = 67 hp. Most electrical motors are not 100% eff, maybe 80%. F1 is still a hybrid setup, doesn't matter how you cut it. They should dump the hybrid, and go back to straight gasoline powered engines like the 4.0 litre V-10's when Nigel mansel was driving.

    Stock bottom hp capabilities

    Eaton tru trac comes in 2 x versions. Mine has the 3.5:1 bias ratio...and has the 3 x side gears on each side..and uses the oem 31 splined axle shafts. The HD version has 4 x side gears per side, and the casing is thicker / stronger BUT requires 33 spline axleshafts....... and only...

    Stock bottom hp capabilities

    650 rwhp with the stock oem TR3660 manual tranny, not happening. It's only rated for 360 ft lbs of TQ.......and that's measured at the crankshaft, not the rear wheels. With that much hp, or even with 450 rwhp, the 2010 needs a real LSD, like an Eaton tru-trac, DSS-DS, whiteline watts...

    Which of these (modded Bullitt vs GT500)

    That bullitt comes with a FRPP PD blower, and a ton of other mods. But the GT-500 is already forged. For the same price, the GT-500 would be bomb proof..... and if he wanted to modify the GT-500, there are a lot of bigger / better blower options that are drop in ready. The GT-500...

    I gave up on Nascar. At most, I would watch the 1st and last 25 laps. NHRA / top fuel dragster's / funny cars bores me to tears. I just can't get wound up about a race that last 3.5 secs. Got bored with Indy cars too. Watched a bit of Formulae-E and F-1. F1 just isn't the same as...

    Help

    WTF ?

    Help

    The sound tube was on my 2010GT. It vanished when the Roush blower was installed, along with the 3 x aeroforce gauges. With the JBA LT's....trust me, it's plenty loud enough.

    Tub the 05

    Long time, no hear. Are you running those 315's on the same 11.5" widened rims ? My MPSS in 305-35-19 on a 19 x 10" wide rim was a wasted effort. The rims need to be wider than 10" to be of any real benefit for any 305mm tire... like 10.5" or better yet, a 11" wide rim. As is...

    water leak (solved: cowl grommets)

    GT or vert ?

    New cammed 4.6l owner.

    I would not use 5W-40 in these 4.6 L engs. It's too thick. Below all work fine. Use whatever you want, just make sure it's 100% synthetic and not that semi synthetic junk. 5W-20 0W-20 5W-30 0W-30

    Dyno tomorrow any guesses?

    I did an edit to my post...that u may or may not have seen. "Water-meth injection (typ a 50-50 mix) injected pre manifold works superb. Typ a pair of 225 ml or bigger injectors are used in the inlet elbow, (after the TB and just before the blower intake). The water keeps things cooler...

    Dyno tomorrow any guesses?

    A 2.6 litre supercharger and 20 lbs of boost is a bunch. Then add the meth injection, and it's a bunch more hp / tq. I'm guessing 750-800 rwhp. Water-meth injection (typ a 50-50 mix) injected pre manifold works superb. Typ a pair of 225 ml or bigger injectors are used in the inlet elbow...

    fuel rails that will fit kb 3.2 mammoth

    That's a massive blower. How much hp are you expecting ?

    Stock bottom hp capabilities

    It's already maxed out. The connecting rods in the 4.6l eng are pretzel sticks. The rods from the Boss 302 are 'sinster forged' and cheap....but a lot of work to install. Next up is the blower will be maxed out. The M122 is only 2.0 l. If you want more power, Long tube headers, with high...

    Poor gas mileage

    U won't get 20 mpg around town, not a chance. Fill gas tank to max. Set trip meter to zero. Drive till u are down to a 1/4 tank. Fill tank up to FULL. Note how many gallons u put in...and what the trip meter says. Then do the math calcs. The online mileage indicator built into the car is a...

    ‘08 Shelby GT & a new inmate

    What eng is in it ? Does it have the blower ? If it has the blower, it already comes with a twin 60mm TB. FRPP sells a twin 65mm TB. VMP sells a twin 67mm TB. Shorty header's is a wasted effort. But I don't think you can have LT's in California. LT's do make a huge difference. So...

    First mods, sub frames, swaybar relo?
