Not as encouraging or drastic as many might expect. 521 to the wheels on E85 with the CJ and pretty much max effort without the cams and port/polish. Obviously that's no cooling either. Hard to believe that cams and port/polish and methanol would pick up another 50 horsepower, but I'd say a...

Porting GT (mustang) heads isn't really sensible given the 350 heads. A set of fairly aggressive ported GT heads flows about the same as the base 350 heads. One would be better off to just buy 350 heads and a 5.2 block, which can be done for only slightly more than the head work on 5.0 heads...

I happen to have considerable experience and insight into this issue. 1) There are competing interests when it comes to covering a vehicle and much of it depends on where you're located and for how long you'll cover the car. Many/Most manufacturers to NOT like to create impermeable membranes...

Guys, I'm a bit confused. I thought all 3160's come with a front plate pump setup, the tech pack cars just got plugs instead of plumbing feed lines to a cooler. I just purchased Magnum XL last year and paid an extra $1k to swap the front plate out for one with a pump. Apparently all the...

It's beyond anecdotal at this point, MT must be having manufacturing and quality control issues. Seen a lot of high hp cars having great success with the Nitto 555RII.

No OEM trans will "hold" that. The 3160 survives well primarily based upon the inability to really get any great traction on a 19" wheel. Basically you'll roll the tires over long before you break the drivetrain. I'd be more skeptical about "drop in" claims for rotating components. I don't...

His point is that coating the wheels helps you DEAL with the dust much easier. Ceramic coated wheels not only collect and hold the dust less (because the surface is slicker) but it makes cleaning much easier, almost to the point that you can hose it off (initially). As the coating fades and...

You can purchase a limited (like 48 hour) forpass membership and it'll give you online access to virtually any tech level service manual you want. You simply input your vin number and then it'll let you browse through all the detailed documents and you can save/dowload them as pdf's.

Ford has been very hush because they don't want the cost of major recalls or retooling. MANY of the engine replacements were excessive oil consumption and that's either by the rings or by the valve seals. If Ford knows, they aren't saying. They've ran the calc's and the number of replacements...

Fuel, let's see. If you're E85 at 750 wheels, you can probably get away with just a boost a pump on the factory pumps. You might need bigger injectors, but I wouldn't go 1300 or bigger until you need them. Injector sizing isn't one of those "bigger is better" items. Run them when you need...

Some things you may have missed (or forgot to write from your list). Caliperfexion Studs (for swapping pads without taking off the caliper completely). Radiator (The GT350 radiator is good, but with added thermal load, you might look at Mushimito or Adler Trackspec (or equivalent) hood vents...

Some thoughts. 1) Antigravity has better offerings for Li battery. If you want max weight savings, you can go with an ATX-20, if you want 30 Ah, you can still save the same amount of weight as the Archangel battery (and it comes with monitoring, overdraw and remote start reserve, etc). 2) The...

Ford is all but saying that's their path in the new commercials. Renewable energy at all plants by 2035, all electric vehicles by blah blah blah. I'm all for the new technology but it isn't graduated enough yet. They still have severe issues with cost, range (both in terms of the actual range...

You don't need a Ford Raptor to negotiate snow conditions. That argument is bunk. They sell them because despite anyone ever racing them offroad, it's just a badass truck. Hell, I'd venture that MOST Raptors never see mud and dirt and all at the cost of towing capacity. So the argument...

Your post is full of a bunch of either unfair obligations (to Ford) or misconceptions. First, who decided the GT350 had to look exactly like or closely like the original? Where is that rule written? The new(er) Jeep Willys doesn't look exactly like the original. The Ford F-150 sure doesn't...
