    Time to replace clutch

    2012 SVT. This clutch was a Exedy Mach 600 (I believe) in the car when I bought it as the second owner. I've put 60K miles on it myself, the last 3K included steep mountain roads (many dirt roads) when I started noticing it was very hard to find gears: First, second and reverse was almost...

    Rev Limiter Question?

    No, I'm only curious about what our engines did when we hit that limit, and why. I guess I need to be extra aware of the RPM during pulls, that's all. Thanks!

    Rev Limiter Question?

    Thanks for the info, guys. This seems like (to my ignorant mind) a bad way to protect the engine; is there any reason it was implemented this way? As opposed to what seems the "normal" way, where the car's computer limits throttle?

    Rev Limiter Question?

    2012 SVT... When I do a hard pull, if I hit the rev limiter, instead of stopping at 6K and holding, it seems like the engine loses power..I can feel the car hesitating and almost cutting out. This does not seem normal to me, as I'd expect to hit the set limit and stay there as long as I was on...

    3/4" Lug nuts

    Thanks! These were $20 at Amazon, and are solid steel (as opposed to the capped stock nuts). I believe they are the same as on CJ's or AM. I do like the look.

    3/4" Lug nuts

    2012 GT500 SVT: While cleaning and rotating the wheels, I noticed the original nuts were showing signs of deformation around the points (due to impact wrench usage?) So I bought a new set of 20 that were listed as fitting a GT500, but they are 19mm (3/4") instead of stock 21mm (13/16"). Threaded...

    Trade my GT500 for New auto 5.0?

    Just wondering: Has anyone here test driven or bought one of the Lebanon Ford's 727hp Mustang GTs? How do they compare to GT500?

    Sheet metal Repair: Options?

    Def a gash, the metal is exposed and was gouged. It will need to be sanded, at least. From what I can tell, the rock departed the road from a semi-trailer wheel, sideways (It was passing me at the time) and hit my door.

    Sheet metal Repair: Options?

    I have a rock-impact hit on my drivers door, it left a 1" gash in the sheet metal (dent also). The first quote I received was typical bondo and paint fix. What other options (2012 Black SVT) should I push for? The sheet metal itself is scratched, deep. There is a dent, as well. Thanks in advance.

    Oil Filter Relocation?

    Why? Because why not. After my first GT500 oil change all I could think was "There has to be a better way". I tried using an oil extraction pump but evidently there's an anti-slosh baffle or something in the oil pan, so I was only able to get a little over 2 qts out that way. (Still, 2 less...

    Oil Filter Relocation?

    For the GT500 drivers that have relocated oil filters: What kit did you use, and where did you relocate the filter? Have anyone gone with dual filters? Thanks!

    Buying a 2012 Gt500 - Help

    I'm looking at a 2012 GT500, having driven (put 90K miles on) a 3000gt VR4, and for the last 5 years, a 2011 V6 Mustang. I'm loving the V6, no one believes I get 30mpg (driving a lot of hwy miles) and just turned 100K on it. This used GT500 would be a daily driver. I've got a 50 mile commute...
