    Oil Leak?

    Found about a tablespoon of fresh oil on the ground alongside the left side of the engine bay, close to where the oil filter is I think. Just did my first oil change a few weeks ago. Has anyone had any issues with the oil filter coming loose? I've done a countles number of oil changes on...

    Wheel Spin test + MPSS

    Has anyone checked to see if the MPSSs(the Ferrari 295s) spin on the rim under intense acceleration? I just remember hearing the Camaro had issues with their's at one point, and I know a lot of tire shops say the 295s are a bit big for the gt500's wheel. Just curious....

    Daily Driver help?

    Looking to get a daily driver in the near future for the winter days. Probably an F-150 with 4x4, supercrew. I don't have much of a budget to work with, I'd prefer to stay under 10-13k or so. Does anyone have any advice what I should be expecting in terms of condition, mileage for that price...

    MPSS on stock wheels?

    Does anyone have pics of how the MPSS 295rear/275front look on the PP wheels? Seems to be a popular choice, but with only a 9.5" wheel, I would think there would be some bulging. Been searching for a while, can't seem to find any. Thanks!

    LC unavailable

    Hey guys, sorry if this is a dumb question. Been reading the manual and can't figure this out. On the HUD, it says LC is unavailable. Even though when I go into the menu and select "on" for LC, it still says unavailable. Traction control and Advance Trac is set to on. Any ideas what I'm...

    Catch can for GT500s?

    Does anyone know of a reason why the GT500s don't come from the factory with an Oil Separator? I've been searching for a while, and I've seen reasons such as cost, but I fail to believe that this car costs 60k and Ford didn't wanna spend an extra 100 on one of these.

    Sport mode?

    Hey guys, I have the performance package, and I see the three buttons: launch control, shocks, and steering wheel. I pushed all three but nothing seemed to happen(no lights, or anything flashing in the display). But I was sitting in the parking space with the parking break on, does that matter?

    Order length?

    Hey guys, It seems most people have been waiting for about 6 months on avg(for a normal priority order) for their Shelbys to get built and delivered, is that about accurate? Hypothetical question here...If I'm able to find a dealer with allocation, and order with the next month, that would...

    Hey guys. Running a Whipple HO on my 2005 GT. I've noticed the water temps been running up to 210 when I go into boost and the AF ratio doesnt drop much below 14. Water temp runs around 180/190 when just driving. The wierd thing is if I get off the gas it will drop momentarily to the...

    Hypothetical dyno question

    Suppose you bring your stang to get a blower install and on the dyno, the engine grenades. Who's responsibility is that? The shop's or the owner of the car? I'm assuming the owner, but I was just curious and I thought I'd ask.

    question for gt500 owners?

    Just out of curiosity, are their any GT500 owners that sold their S197 GT and regretted it. That is from a standpoint where they had the choice to drop an SC on their GT, or upgrade for the GT500?
