The over bore that is. Anyone?

I'm looking for this info myself...

Dudes turn me on...

But is there a limit? Like the "magical" 450rwhp for stock blocks?

I'm thinking 0.030 over is about it. I know for a FI setup on a Teksid, that John Mehovitz told Adam that 0.030 over could handle up to 20psi boost.

Over a month and 5K later I picked up the SYT (with base tune) and drove off back home. Happy feelings I have not felt in so long started to come back to me as the car was playful and responsive (unlike Mrs. Lostsoul). From the pickup area to my house was about 50+ miles of hot temps and traffic. Shouting with glee and thinking of Mustang Madness I ran into a hitch...







A tow hitch!!!



Once again unbelievable shit happens to me. Once again Gowd ( A MAN!!!) laughs down to me. 10 minutes from my house at an intersection I push the clutch down to leave at the lights.. I find out that I cant get the F'ing thing into ANY gear. Also, the peddle is spongy and not really coming back up. After 30 minutes of blocking the fast lane and ASS HOLES (Obama supporters) still driving up to my car with the HAZARDS ON expecting me to move then yelling at me! Finally someone came by to help and we pushed the car to a safe spot. When I looked back there was a nice big puddle on the ground. At that point I knew where to look and all the hydraulic fluid was gone. Finally Mr. Roper showed up and we called a tow truck and got it to his house... Thus is what we found while working on it at 98 degrees!






Looks like when they dumped the engine in they crushed the hose that goes from the slave cylinder to the top of the tranny. It looks like I can disconnect the hose.. at top it might not be bad.. but I dont see an easy way of getting to the top of the tranny to get that little connector =-/

 

[stkjock]

you have my sympathy Ted

that just blows

 

[Charlie Sheen]

I'm heading over to Ford right now. Anyone else replaced that hose?

[ZmanM3]

Wow, that kind of blows. I'm sorry to hear that Ted.

 

[lostsoul]

Thanks.. hopefully I might be able to go a few months without anything breaking...........maybe

 

[1Fast05Turbo]

Ted, WTF??? I sure hope nothing else goes wrong with SYT!!! Good luck with the repair.

Bah! That's the only way you could ever get in front of me.

 

[Black Tooth Grin]

Look on the bright side Ted. Sooner or later you are going to run out of shit that will break.


At least it looks like a simple fix.

 

[C-Liz-Go]

Bah! That's the only way you could ever get in front of me.

Oh now that is just mean and hurtful to say!! Ted's luck sounds about like my kinda luck....geez man, I hope you don't become a Chevy man after all these issues.

Next time he gets stuck I'll tell him call to his buddy Liz, who happens to be a chick. And to the three of you that named the SYT in the Ghoul Pool - nice call!

 

[stkjock]

Did you guys get the hose fit?

 

[MLC40]

Sorry Ted, times like this test all of us. At least this looks to a an easy, cheap fix.

Good Luck.

 

[Charlie Sheen]

Waiting to hear back from his favorite new shop. Going to the track tonight so no more dinking around with the car until tomorrow. Local Ford shop wants $105 for that hose.

 

[ZmanM3]

Bah! That's the only way you could ever get in front of me.

What a buddy Ted has in Stanley. Always willing to do what ever he can for Ted and then take pot shots at him the hole time. Keep up the good work Stanley, the SYT would still be on the farm with out you.

15MB is the limit for everyone. I suggest you delete about 10MB of Hasselhof pics.
