[Cman01]

It was my pleasure to do this.

I'm hoping to see something tonight from Mitchell about the codes but probably won't happen, hopefully I'll see something tomorrow or Sunday so I can get the codes to you all, stay tuned.

Wondering if there be any interest in another group buy for those who missed out last time?

 

[Cman01]

I still have mine sitting in storage with my 10% ATI, will get to it eventually.

Did you talk with Mitchell @ Kinetik about another GP? I'm sure they would go for another one if you want to get a group together for this item.

 

[Bigdogcamwu]

I understand I have not spoken with him. Was curious as I was looking to buy one soon and saw this thread awhile back.

Thanks

What's the benefit of this over the ARP crank bolt? Thinking of going with the ATI 10% lower. Thanks!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Notice how the shoulders of the stud fill up the void in the crank snout. I was skeptical too until I saw this. In fact I had an ARP bolt that I removed.

Sorry for the newb qustion but what is the benefit of filling the void?

 

[JB_2010GT500]

The benefit is that there is no play between the stud and the crank. By effectively mating the surfaces together, there is no chance the stud can wiggle—fatiguing the metal and leading to eventual failure.

I’m planning on purchasing this for a Coyote build, but it’s on my recommend list for our cars for sure.

Every GT500 owner should have this on there car, stock or modded. Kinetik is local for me and I got to feel first hand difference in play between an OEM style bolt and the Kinetik stud on that cutaway crank, the reduction in play is HUGE. Had Kinetik install one on my car just to be safe and if I ever upgrade to a 10% or 15% lower pulley the stud/nut is reusable so I'm not really out anything.

 

[NewYorkJon34]

can we do another group buy?

 

[Cman01]

I'll email Mitchell tomorrow and see if we can get another GP going on the stud kit, if he wants to do another one I'll set it up again.

Leave it with me I'll update once I get word from them.

I heard back from Mitchell and he is good to go on another GP!!!!

I'm currently having slight internet issues at home and also waiting for some info from him, I will do another thread with the details later this aftn/early evening on how this will go. It will basically be the same as before.

Mitchell also mentioned to me that they now also have a stud saver kit for Coyote engines so I will also get that going with the 5.0/Boss 302 guys interested in the item.

Again, the new GP thread will start later so wait until the post is up then I'll start taking names on the list.

I’m in for a Coyote kit for sure, maybe one of each.
