It's pretty close to the catalytic converters -- I don't think felt tape would handle the heat.
I've got an email out to Ford Performance asking if they've A. Heard of any similar metallic rattles, B. Have any additional guidance regarding the position of the line spreader or C. Whether...
Last fall, I added the factory pump equipped transmission and cooler pack to my Tech pack 2016 GT350. Since then, I've developed a metallic rattle between 3800 and 4000RPM since then which I have traced to play between the cooler hard lines and the bracket that bolts to the the back side of...
The price on the trans depends entirely on what Ford Racing dealer you purchase through. It took longer for Ford to 'approve' and ship the order than the freight company took to transport it. I got mine through Auto Nation Ford White Bear Lake -- and their price on the trans and other parts to...
Honestly, 3/4 inch change in diameter is within the range of speed variance you'd see on the OEM tire between full tread and fully worn. I wouldn't sweat it that much.
Just a heads-up to anyone wanting to enable trans/diff temps on a tech pack car -- you may have issues using version 2.3.9.
I finally got around to using Forscan to enable trans/diff temperature on my GT350 last night. I was using the latest version of Forscan (2.3.9) and received an error...
With respect to the OEM Diff cooler (and I apologize if this has actually been covered I may have missed a critical bit in 157 pages).
1. We know we can enable/disable the gauge display in the dash cluster via forscan.
2. We can buy the pump, cooler, brackets, sensor and other components...
I'm aware of the recall. I was just curious whether both sets of lines have similar crimping issues and the transmission lines had been deemed 'acceptable' due to lower operating pressures. My car is a tech pack so I don't have transmission lines to do a visual comparison.
Ford needs to shit or get off the pot. Right. Ow the options are homebrew cooling with loss of warranty or potentially taking a bath trading up to a 17 with ADMs. Trading up to a grandsport will soon be a very real option and may be a better deal than a 17.
Possibly three sku's? One for the coolers and lines. One for the electric pump. One for the transmission swap? -- You buy the coolers and then whichever pump option you prefer.
(Pure speculation)
How do you feel about the additional viscosity of BG Syncro Shift II when transmission coolers are present? I'm assuming since it is thicker that it will increase the pressure. Do you feel it would impact the service life or performance of the gerotor pump in the track pack transmission? What...
