    Driveline Shudder

    I got tired of putting up with Ford's under-engineering of the GT500 driveline and suspension. And, I got tired of fighting the whole Ford beauracry for warranty fixes. I solved my clutch chatter, driveline shudder, u-joint clunking, and rear suspension banging. I now have a Roush 427 -...

    Tire Traction

    The Goodyear F1 tires seem to be EXTREMELY sensitive to temperature. I have noticed traction trouble when either the pavement temp or the tire temp is low. Tire hookup doesn't seem to be predictable in the first 2 gears. Anyone usilng ET Steet radials for everyday use?

    A Good Combination!

    I did a 3.89 gear change, an aluminum flywheel, and a SCT tune all at the same time on my '05 GT 5 speed. I also raised the idle RPM to 1000 to quicken the engine accel at the touch of the throttle. The engine does accel/decel much quicker. And, the RPM falls quicker between shifts - no more RPM...

    64 Mustang 289

    The press release info that I have read for the '05 Mustang keeps referring to the 64 Mustang with a 289 cubit motor. I don't think there was a 289 in 64. Wasn't it a 260?

    Ford Stuff at PRI

    I spent some time at the Ford booth at the Performance Racing Industry trade show at Indianapolis last week. I found it strange that they had very little for the SOHC motors - not even a block or crate motor on display. They were pushing the 5.0 Cammer DOHC 4-valve motor. It was interesting to...

    Programmable Engine Management System

    www.andersonfordmotorsport.com showed a new product at the Performance Racing Industry trade show last week. They have products for EEC-IV Mustangs and EEC-V Fords (all). The system is a piggy-back on the factory computer. It does not require a laptop to do the adjustments. An included control...

    SVT Focus @ PRI

    I just came back from the Performance Racing Industry trade show at Indianapolis. THE most impressive car that I saw there was a Focus SVT - looked like a stock silver car. ATI Motorsposts (www.atimotorsports.com) did a couple of small modifications; a 4 valve supercharged Cobra motor and rear...
