Today, while getting on the freeway, I wrapped out 3rd before easing off, sliding in to 6th and settling into highway traffic. I checked my mirrors just in time to see a sheriff dept crossing 4 lanes of traffic. OOPS.
I pull off and the female deputy approaches with a grin. We go through the...
I work oil field and times are lean, so I'm watching the budget these days. But I have about $300 to spend on a stock non SVTPP car.
I also just bought a '96 F-350 with the 7.3 powerstroke (sold another vehicle to buy the F-350 to pull a trailer). I know this is SVT blasphemy, but for $300, I...
So after 15 months of ownership, I finally completed my first mod. I replaced the front shifter bushings and shifter to stick rubber with billet pieces. I also swapped to Amsoil transmission lube and diff lube.
Definitely picked up bit is transmission noise in the cabin, and the actually...
I did a search and found a bunch of threads about what clutch to use, but my question is more simplistic. Is the stock clutch adjustable in any way. I'm betting no, but figured I'd ask.
So I got up and running with Dash command finally and started monitoring AIT2. Couple of questions for the board, from my last two drives. Cool weather, easy 45-75 mph driving.
Ambient temp: 35 and 45
Coolant temp: 191-ish
AIT 1 temp : within 5° of ambient
AIT 2 temp : 95° to 115° BUT...

Clean, well maintained car with several performance upgrades. I'm selling it because I replaced it with a Shelby. This car is fun to drive, and still get thumbs up from other drivers. Car is mechanically solid, and everything works, with cold A/C. Has about 185K miles...
My wife was driving the Shelby yesterday. She exited the freeway from about 70mph under coast, still in 6th, and as she approached the light noticed the engine stalled. She said there were no jerks, or noises, and she didn't even notice it stalled until she noticed the charge (battery) light...

The other day my right HID went out. I ordered a pair of bulbs from DDM, and installed the right one to start with. No light. So I tried the other bulb, and still nothing. So I tried the working factory bulb from the left side, and STILL nothing. Not knowing where the ballast was or what...
I have a 2011 GT500 NON-SVPP, that I bought in July with new tires on it. It has P-zeros out back and P-zero Neros on the front. While doing an oil change I noticed the inside edges of the fronts are toast. So now I need an alignment and new fronts. I did notice when I got it, that the front...
I've read MANY threads on the dreaded 1-2 shift. My car will grind horribly if shifted above about 5000-5500 and about 1/3 of those times, not let me in 2nd (although that could be me giving up at the nauseating sound of grind). I really considered the AMSOIL, shifter, WOT approach, but bottom...
Sorry if this is already up somewhere. I saw plenty about each topic individually, but nothing comparing the two. SO, lets assume a guy has just bought a stock 2011 GT500 as a DD in Houston, and he has about $800 for the first mod.
Pulley and tune...
I just bought a 2011 GT500, black with matte black stripes. I like the subtley of it, but then I saw this http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh259/bellanca07/00c63aaf.jpg
How do I get that "pop". I plan to use Klasse polish. Used it for years and love the stuff, but not sure how to handle the...
Just bought my 2011 Shelby GT500, and I have a few questions.
1. How do I know if my car has the performance package (thinking it doesn't, but want to be sure)
2. What are best bang for the buck mods to start with
3. How much DEPENDABLE HP are the stock bottom ends good for?
