    Mechanical Drivetrain Loss in our 2013-2014 Shelby GT500'S

    The supercharger eats a lot of hp also. Likely more than the powertrain. Lighter components should only decrease moment of inertia, not power loss.

    Pilot bearing?

    When I rebuilt the engine, I changed out to a magnum XL (connected the 2 outside the car), but didn't change the pilot bearing. The transmission was also rotated to the point I had to add spacers to the driver's side motor mount for the shifter to fit through the hole. I'm not sure which...

    Clutch engagement issues

    If you do a clutch go with McLeod. And make sure there's no hairline fractures in the clutch.

    Clutch engagement issues

    the clutch is good if it holds max torque in a higher gear. Since you can feel it in the pedal it's something in or attached to that pressure line. I'm wondering if the throw out bearing is sticking or the clutch has worn enough for the throw out bearing to not be in touch with the fingers...

    Hey Norton, You safe in Colo?

    I saw the fires out the window. I thought it was just a bunch of dirt kicked up by the wind that day. Then I heard there was a fire in it somewhere, then I heard it was all smoke. Pre-evacuation warnings were a couple streets from me. There were Wyoming levels of wind that day.

    O/R X/H pipes Discontinued?

    Performance Mods??

    Do tunes actually delete warranties? (Newest laws/tech, etc)

    3.73 Gear

    I guess one problem with 4.30s is it just spins tires through 2nd and usually 3rd. Difficult to remote tune.

    3.73 Gear

    .63 and 4.29 diff gears. Still not so bad at 80. Look into the magnus clutch valve. Hook it up to the 2 step or a couple of throttle switches. Hopefully your clutch will give out before your trans. I haven't had the money to do much recently so haven't tried this, but it sounds like a good...

    3.73 Gear

    I have 4.30s with the close ratio magnum xl. 80mph is 3000 rpm but fuel mileage is still 19+ on the highway. Town is a different story.

    Street/Strip Suspension setup (springs/dampers)

    What has everyone settled on for a good street strip suspension (spring/damper combo) that doesn't bottom out on every road dip? Everything I've seen is a few years old and people are still working it out...I haven't seen where they decided. Anything decided is for street/twisties. Parts I...
