Doing your build yourself FTW....stay tuned.
Your crazy. Now you can make sure those header bolts are nice and tight
How long did it take to get out? Did you jack the car up that high, or pick the front end up with the cherry picker?
Its up realllllllly high...needed a tad more so I lifted the nose by the cross brace with the hoist about 2 extra inches...worked mint. I picked away at it slowly over 3 days..prob 7 hrs total taking my time labeling everything and baggying all the blots and crap.
Dude, you are one brave, crazy, out of control mod freak. Keep us posted!
My buddy Rob said....who the hell else would pull a 6k mile perfectly fine motor besides you.....is this bad...do I need rehab..lmao. If Ford put good rods in the motor I wouldn't even be doing this...they didn't so her I am yanking her heart out.
yep,
buddies at Ford went the famous ford powdered metal connecting rods... i have a bucket full of destroyed ones at the shop, they are fine for most application but these should not have been used in the GT500 motors....
talk about someone on a mission
nice work!!!!
What all are you having done?
What rods and pistons are you going with?
Check out Arias pistons. They're the best you'll find. Custom made to your specs with awesome coatings. They'll take a little while to get but it sounds like you'll be down for a while anyway. A lot of the off the shelf slugs for these motors have the ring packs too high and aren't coated.
Arias is the best you're going to get. Building a TT Viper right now with them in it. Really nice pieces.
you crazy!
cant wait to see/heard the progress
