I remember people doing this way back when the 14s came out. Iirc it is just a simple flash, also anyone who did it lost their launch control rpm low limit, that is also different from 13 to 14. I think 13s LC rpm limits are 2500-5500, and 14s are 3500-5500.. Not a big deal but just a fyi. and...
Yeah, I agree.. I didn't think about the 5.4 truck engine from that era. I guess Im still bummed out about the release. I just kind of expected a car more like our 13-14s, more drag orientated.. Ford already has 3 track cars, now 4. Ford GT, GT350, GT350R, and now GT500.

I think the new GT500 looks ok.. It's a bit too ricer for me but, it still looks good. My main gripe with the new car would be, I can't believe they used the gt350 engine block. My 2013 has a proprietary engine only to the GT500. That's how the GT500 always was, it wasn't a parts borrower. I'm...
Hard to tell where on the engine that even is? Have another pic backed up some? Maybe someone will know what it is just by looking at it, but more pics would help.

That's beautiful man! I saw it when he posted it on fb and wished I went with those colors lol.. What gaskets did you go with? I remember my shipping being 800 round trip.. I'm in MN tho.

I put my headers on when the engine was out of the car, and it still took hours lol.. I couldn't even imagine doing it with the engine still in the car. I also used new factory studs and had to cut one in half. If someone chose to use the stainless bolts the headers come with I see the job being...
Kenne Bell customer service is great when you can get them on the phone. They don't reply to emails tho lol. The main reason I went with Kenne Bell is because they look so much better than a Whipple. I'm not into the heat sink look, I'd rather have a big chunk of shiny polished Billet under my...
I just check the website you gave me, and all it mentions is the driver side air bag.. Hmm, weird.. must have different parts in our cars. My car was built 08/14/2012
I went in and talked to the service manager today, and he took a peek at it and told me not to worry that they would replace it. I was pretty surprised actually, he gave me no trouble or argument. I am really impressed with them owning up to it, I've had terrible experiences with dealerships...
So around middle July I called the dealer and try schedule an appointment for the drivers air bag. They ask for my vin # and say they have to order the part and it could take a few days, ok. Few weeks later they call and say its in and that I can make an appointment for today 8/13.
I had a bad...
Wow, 1 Pass? Thats crazy, take it apart and see what went wrong. Maybe McLeod will warranty it, if its a defect or something. I'm using a CenterForce DYAD and like it. I haven't been to the track with it tho.
I don't know why anyone would want this new GT500. The GT500 should have its own engine like it's always had. I'll keep my 13, I don't want a gt350 with a blower if I did I would have bought one.

I have the Triple 465s and run 2 on 1 on a hobbs switch. The most tedious part for me was making the lines, I used loctite on the hose fittings when I created the line (not when I install the lines). Did you go with the PTFE? How about FC3? The FC3 makes it look really clean.
It has a built motor, cams, Kenne Bell 3.6, Id1300s, E85, Fore Triple pump return fuel system, Centerforce DYAD clutch, Some other things I'm probably forgetting. Suspension is actual bone stock except for a set of 305 MT ET Street's in the back.
Ordered mine April of 2012.
Got the vin number 07/23/2012 lol
Built the week of Aug 13 2012
Delivered on 8-27-2012 with 4.6 miles, now she has around 18k.
And I still have her, she is highly modified now but still love her just the same.
You would need a competition Boost-A-Pump. I have ID1300's I haven't heard of the ID X variant, these must be new? Whats the difference between the old and new X's?
