    2011 5.4 alum PTWA block

    Just saw these are available from Ford (the 2011 GT500 alum block with the plasma transfered wire arc bores). Will they work with any modular parts like any other 5.4 block or is there anything special about them? Eg: doesn't require special machining for 03/04 heads, etc.

    oil cooler parts

    So I'm a bit confused as to what gaskets and o rings there are between the block and the oil filter. From my manual, and without taking it apart first since I want to have replacements on hand and finish in one sitting, all I see is a single piece oil/coolant gasket between the block and oil...

    Eaton rattle/tick?

    Making a new thread to follow up on: http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/engine-tuning-214/647034-supercharger-pulley-cage-assembly.html after isolating the noise to the blower and not the pulley cage. Further research on "eaton" + "tick" or "rattle" reveals that it's a common problem with...

    supercharger pulley cage assembly

    Crank pulley that is. Anyone have some info on this? Can you press out the bearing and replace it or are you better off getting a complete assembly? I have a sporadic RPM varying noise that sounds like an idler ticking/rattling/chirping below 2500 RPM that persists with the belts off, and it...

    intermittent ABS light

    ABS light is coming on once or twice per drive session. Stays on for a min or two then goes off on it's own. No loss of function, it's just the lamp coming on for no reason. ABS scanner shows (using K2A or K20 key): C1805 Mismatched PCM and/or ABS-TC Module Drive with scanner's real time...

    driving a beater

    Most people with Terminators I know have some kind of beater they drive in circumstances they don't wouldn't expose their Terminator too (dirt road to destination, rain and flooding, etc). There is a phenomenon I have discovered related to people's attitudes and the whole alpha superiority...

    Anyone have a convenient diagram for the pedal assembly under the dash? Particularly the brake portion. Replacing my brake booster this weekend and also wanted to take care of some slop in the brake pedal while I'm under there. It would help to see an exploded view or something so I can...

    transmission mount

    Is there a solid or urethane aftermarket transmission mount/cross member for the T-56 for the Terminators? Everywhere I look all the aftermarket mounts and cross members specifically excludes 03-04 Cobra and all I can find is the stock Terminator+T56 specific cross member from Ford Racing which...

    How to lower your clutch pedal for quicker, firmer, shifts and performance driving.

    Assuming you meant pressure plate instead of flywheel. "The way it was designed" results in worn out TOBs and TOB retainer sleeves from the factory. Possibly an unforeseen consequence of a poor design solution attempting to firm up the clutch pedal in a way that the stock cable actuated system...

    How to lower your clutch pedal for quicker, firmer, shifts and performance driving.

    Throwing in my experiences with this. I have a firewall adjuster and quadrant, adjustable cable, and LDC free play spring. I also have the MM pedal height adjuster. First put the pedal where you want it with the height adjuster bracket. You can install the quadrant at the same time. There...

    aftermarket transmission mounts?

    Having a hard time locating a urethane transmission mount. All the ones I've seen have special footnotes that specifically excluded "Cobra with IRS" or "2003-2004 Cobra with 6 speed". Any ideas? A combo pack with urethane motor mounts would be welcome.

    brakes leaking in passenger compartment So I'm messing with my clutch adjuster and noticed the boot between the brake pedal and rod was wet and dripping, and there is a small bit of fluid on the firewall and floor pan under the carpet. It appears to be dark so it's probably power steering...
