    how long are your supercharger belts lasting

    10,000 miles on a s/c belt is a good time to change it.

    Metal shavings on dipstick

    What he said. Drain oil, pour it through a metal coffee ground filter and see whats left over. that and like others said, cut the filter open and have a look inside.

    I swear my fab guy is a magician

    Should work ok. 100% meth should vaporize completely in the blower unless you're dumping it in with a garden hose.

    Bent axle

    It's not the top end HP, but the low end torque you are missing with a centri. With a centri you want to get the engine up into the top half of the power band as quick as possible, which steeper gears help with. If it was a turbo or twin screw, then I'd say 3.55's all day and I plan on running...

    Bent axle

    4:10's are pretty steep. Try the 3.73's. 3.55's are too low. Stock axles are 31 spline already so need to waste money of Mosers, especially if you rarely if ever put slicks on it. Also look into the WaveTrac limited slip dif instead of the TrueTrac

    What is the oil you guys use for grinding synchros for a tr6060?

    Didnt think 6060's had syncro problems. You sure it's not in the remote shifter linkage or clutch ?

    2014 Mustang Sedan

    Dont be surprised to hear this from Ford again though. The "Mustang" brand is their best known brand and with the new 2015 body change and "global marketing" push, Ford could bring this back.

    2014 Mustang Sedan

    Ford has been toying with the idea of how to expand market share under the "Mustang" brand for years. this is not the first time this has been spun out there only to disappear. Thing looks like a Charger with a Mustang grill glued on. Yuck.

    2013 GT500 5.8L block

    ^^^ impressive. Didnt think they would fit. Too bad it's an iron block. Must a weigh a ton on the front end of a car. Looks like they had to hack up the firewall pretty good to get it in there too :(

    2013 GT500 5.8L block

    It's called a stroked 6.2L (6.6L) .......... they wont fit in the mustang engine bay though :( Plans to do one in my Raptor someday and crank the boost up on the Whipple to 14-15psi. Should be a hoot.

    2013 GT500 5.8L block

    Good write up on the engine and how Ford got the extra displacement. (they bored it and eliminated the liners) http://www.mustang50magazine.com/techarticles/m5lp_1203_2013_ford_shelby_gt500_trinity_5_8l_v8/viewall.html Looks like Ford maxed out the bore

    Mustang fights back!

    I've had a two handed industrial grinder get wrapped up in my t-shirt once. Came about a knats ass away from burying it into my stomach. Bad luck there, I've broken some cut off wheels before but the pieces always went flying off who knows where. Looks like you probably need some stitches with...

    5.0 Aluminator Question...Insight please

    The down side really is you have very little or zero room for error in the combustion process. The 11:1 will make more power, but be MUCH more prone to detonation if anything gets out of whack. It comes down to how much risk do you want to take. Detonation will destroy even a "built" motor. I...

    Always check your hoods shut!!!

    Fox body hood latches in particular are notorious for letting go .......... even when shut and latched properly

    This aint right...

    45psi ? yeah i bet they go shooting off pretty good. The fountain of gasoline everywhere afterwards must be a treat too.

    JDM Engineering Tests the All New Kooks Super Street Headers!!

    too bad kooks didn't put a merge spike in the collector. It might have helped a little with the problem that the end collector flange covers up half of 3 of the primaries. I would have thought kooks would have tried to make a long collector and shorter primaries to try and unshroud those openings.

    twisted axle tube today

    Nice one. Not as rare as you guys seem to think though. Welding up the outer tubes on an 8.8 axle to keep this very thing from happening is a common mod. People been doing this going back to the old Fox bodies. Ford has never welded the outer tubes to the center housing on the factory 8.8's...

    Intercooler Pump Replacement (Whipple 2.3)

    The problem with running too small an HE is the water passes through it too quickly and it doesnt have time dissipate the heat out of the coolant. Everything really has to be balanced or the choke point in the system will always limit the amount of heat it can remove in a given period of time.

    Intercooler Pump Replacement (Whipple 2.3)

    I run the Mezeir 20gpm pump on my Raptor Whipple install and it works great. Quiet, pumps a ton more water, and shouldn't crap out after 10-20,000 miles like the stock Bosch pumps are notorious for doing. I also upgrade the HE and put fans on it at the same time to keep up with extra water being...
