    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Huge (3.8L huge) update! I'm going to go in order: After installing the new MFP crank support in the car I felt much better about the crankshaft staying together. With a little bit of push from Cody Chaney(@cody_5.4) I got the car ready to take to Orlando Speed World with some fresh new ET...

    MFP Crank Support for GT500 Install and Thoughts

    I recently picked up a MFP crank support from Paramount Speed. I have a 2014 GT500 with a MHS Built 5.8L Engine (Sleeved, Stock Crank, Rods, Pistons, Ported Heads, Stage 3 MHS Cams, and more). It is currently making 1122RWHP with a 2.6 Upper and 10% Lower on a Stage 3 VMP Gen 3 R. (made more...

    Just installed MFP Crank Support! This was definitely a must have supporting mod for the horsepower the car is currently pushing.

    2018 GT350R Whipple 2.9L Gen 4 3.375 and 3.625 Pulley 93 and E85

    Hello everyone! This is the first post for me in the GT350 section. We own a 2018 GT350R we picked up back in March. The car has a Whipple 2.9L Gen 4 Supercharger. I just added a set of DW1200cc injectors to the car to get it ready to run E85. We took a trip down to Palm Beach Dyno to get the...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Dragy 60-130MPH is tough with this much power. Mine went much faster keeping it in 3rd rather than trying to hook 2nd. I talked with Ken and Rob at PBD and we might try some different things to get it to hook on the street. I also have a BMR rear swaybar coming for the car since right now I am...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Well we got the Calimer Built TR6060 and Strange 35 Spline Rear End Done. I definitely regret getting the 5/8" studs because it limits my wheel choices. If anyone wants to trade axles with standard studs let me know. I also received the wrong brake caliper brackets so we had to delay the first...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Trans and Rear end are in! I received the wrong rear brake caliper brackets for the c clip eliminators so hopefully finishing it up today and will finally be able to drive the car. They sent me 13-14 big rotor brackets and I have the BPS smaller rotors and run a 15" Weld Rear so they didn't fit.

    Nice very similar power to my car.

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    The car should be back together in the next few weeks with a Calimer Built TR6060 and a Strange 35 Spline Built Rear End. Ready to hit the street and get kicked out of the dragstrip for going too fast for the current safety equipment ;)

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Funny story. Ben Calimer Got the trans torn apart and said it was fine. So I decided to check out the rear end and thats when we found a chipped ring gear and a main cap bolt backing out. So now I ordered a Strange 35 Spline Spool setup and new Ford 3.31 Gears to go back in. Our guess is that...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    I have answered this question a few times in some videos but not everyone sees that. VMP was having issues getting the car to idle and run right. It was running super rich and wouldn't come back down to idle after revving and wouldn't hot start. After data logging and going back and fourth we...

    Send me a texr 407-680-3494 on the Trans. Sounds like I'll be out for a few weeks while Ben fixes mine.

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    And one final post for today. It appears the TR6060 has bitten the dust. After the final pull on the dyno we got the car off the dyno and put it in the trailer. I got the car off the trailer next day and while driving at low speed I heard a slight clunking while in gear. I checked over the car...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Dyno Sheet with Boost. Red line = 2.4 Blue Line = 2.6. The 2.4 made some great power but it does seem to run out up top. I am guessing we are starting to get out of the efficiency range. Still very impressive power. I decided to put the 2.6 back on to drive the car around. I want to do some...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Here is a basic write up of the car. 10:5:1 and tested and saw 21 PSI on 2.6 Upper and 10% Lower and 23 PSI on 2.4 10% Lower. I am going to post the Graphs as well. 2014 Shelby GT500 Modular Head Shop Built 5.8L Engine: Diamond Pistons, Molnar Power Adder Rods, ARP Hardware, Sleeved, 10:5:1...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    Well there has been some time since I last updated the thread. We got a Lethal Triple Pump Return Fuel System installed in the car and I managed to get a 3rd to 4th gear pull in. Palm Beach Dyno had the base tune on point! We got the car on the Dyno and it made some impressive power! 1144RWHP...

    5.8L GT500 Rod Failure

    I think I might have misspoke. I am used to S550s since iat becomes iat2 with the maf breakout harness. I am going to make an update on the lower and temps after we dyno the car. I am seeing very different activity with iat2 temps. Rapid rising and falling. It makes sense without the bypass area...
