All Motor Chat - High Gearing, Light weight, Revin to the moon-

Some of the stuff I have been collecting to do in the next few weeks

Knock off 8-9 lbs off the crank 26 spline disc for the "new trans"

Tr6060

I had originally ordered the 90mm Ford Racing T body made by accufab... then I talked to George at Accufab and he told me they were making a 85mm that out flowed the 90. So I sent the 90 back and got the 85

Also my new tuning toy

The melling number with the billet gears is #10227.

If you don't want to lock out the Vct TSS is your option. Melling had a video at the Pri show with a stock ford modular .pump and their pump under full load. It's amazing how the stock pump looses so much oil. when I find the video I will post it.

So than the GT500 with TSS gears is the way to go than.

That sounds like a good video to watch, thank you sir

Is that an aluminum fly wheel?

Also that SCT controller seems pretty cool, I was just looking at that. If you can would you give us your take on it after you have had your time with it?

 

[Matt D]

Yes sir Alum flywheel. I will let you know about the touch screen once I get to use it

 

[BMR Tech]

Woo hoo!!!!

 

[ford20]

Going to stay NA also. JLT CAI, Steeda CMDPs..UDPS, Pypes LTs..H-pipe, MACs axle backs, FRPP 4.10s, DR cams , stall conv and a Brenspeed tune . That will be about all I will do. I hope to have everything done by mid-summer.

Nice! Sounds like a good build, keep us updated!

I would rev it to 6800-7000 on a GT500 pump. Melling is the end all for 7000+

what about MMR oil pumps? only $279 for the street/strip one or $399 for whats claimed to be the highest hp/rpm modular pump out there.

 

[ford20]

MMR Oil Pumps are shit! Don't get one, they usually fail. Thats what I have found out in my research unfortunately.

Edit:
I did some more reading into MMR pumps for the 3v and so far I havent seen many break only on the 2v with cryo gears

 

[Matt D]

I can't speak for mmr pumps. I know melling works that's why I recommend them.

 

[ford20]

With either the GT500 Pump or the Melling Pump would I need a 7+ Quart Oil pan?

 

[jmauld]

I was messing around with my tuner tonight while loading a new tune. I noticed that you can adjust the timing in various rpm ranges. Is this something that can be done effectively without sitting on a dyno?

Is it worth bothering with?

 

[ford20]

Bump for an answer

For 7000+ Rpm I would use a deep pan. Better more oil then not enough.

Ask your tuner what he currently set the timing at. Most of the time the spark table will be set from 3000-6500 rpms with max timing for the octane you are going to use.(under full load) for a Na car. Or data log the timing and see where it's at and then you can go from there.

 

[Matt D]

Oh Hi there

Now you see me

Now you don't

 

[ford20]

Are you doing a wire tuck? Or is this for a bit more sinister of a reason?

 

[Matt D]

Trying to clean up the engine bay. Tucked the fuse box down below, Also going to remove abs block and the brake lines on the driver side.

 

[ford20]

Would the GT500 crankshaft damper fit the 4.6L Block?

 

[Racingtheburg]

Crickets....

 

[Matt D]

Top the top

 

[Racingtheburg]

Holy shit he is alive. I knew the cricket chirp would get you in lol

Damn. Back cut gears with it looks like an REM finish. Where did you find those. Went to Libertys gear website and didnt find them.
