Thanks for doing a write up on this. I finally got my tkx after a year waiting and decided to install it this winter. After new rear gears that showed some headscratcher decisions from the assembly line and installing the panhard bar, I figured I'd enjoy the car a little bit before lying on my...
If Ford ever sends the driveshaft, I'll have it. I ordered the 31 spline driveshaft last June and the tkx last July. Still not here, but allegedly they should ship this month. Still plan on a write up when they show up.
I felt it came out low, but didnt press the issue since I just wanted the car back. At some point I planned to have the tune looked at since it seems to run super rich only at idle, but I'm several hours away from all the good tuners in Michigan. There isnt any leaks I've found or anything else...
I definitely will write up a post about it. I was told sometime in August it will ship and plan on putting it in once its here. I already have all the other swap parts ready since its hard to get stuff lately. Hopefully I dont end up missing anything too difficult to get ahold of if I need...
Anyone swapped the t45 to a tkx yet? Mines coming in August and I was wondering about what shifters would fit it. Tremec said it should pretty straight forward, just have to relocate the crossmember, new bellhousing, and get 31 spline driveshaft but figured id see if anyone that's done it ran...
The engine is all stock. It does have a bbk x-pipe but stock catback, most of the suspension is done, and an aluminum flywheel when I put the clutch in.
Well the install is finally done. It made 360hp and 326tq at the wheels. We were going for 8lbs of boost since the motor is stock and it ended up making 7.4lbs. It's all set to run 500+hp after I source an engine to rebuild with forged internals down the road. My tkx transmission should ship in...
I will definitely post after install. I've got the clutch and suspension mostly covered for the added power. It's going to be on a conservative tune while I source another engine to build so I can swap it in after some time and turn the boost up.
1994 or 95 deep forest green and camel convertible top with the cobra grill and fender emblems. It did sound good at least. On a positive note, after 6 freaking months of waiting on procharger, my supercharger will be here by Monday. I'm ready to enjoy it this summer.
Lidio at Alternative did say he would tune it, just not work on it. None of the muffler shops I trust here have a drive on lift. Paul's high performance will do it, but only their connectors. Since I've got to drive a couple hours minimum for a dyno I was hoping to get it all done at once. I'll...
No one is competent enough around where I live to weld them in or doesnt want the liability. I live in Alpena which is a small town. And Alternative Auto said they dont work on cars as old as mine anymore.
I'm looking for a place in Michigan to get my subframe connectors welded in and a baseline dyno run then tuned. I've been turned down by everyone up north here and at Alternative Auto downstate. Anyone have any suggestions? This is getting to be far more difficult than I expected. Engine is...
