Imagine if Formula 1, Indy Car, Nascar, IMSA, NHRA, etc. had this knowledge.... they could save so much money.
F1 engines last 7-8 races, NASCAR rebuilds theirs after every race.
If ***** could educate them, he could change racing as we know it.

F1 used to be really cool when they had good engines. It's still interesting engineering, but not nearly as fun to watch/listen. Likewise, to me NASCAR was a lot better when they were based on actual production cars and engines.

Haha I’m at 37k miles and I’ve had mine on a track several times. Gen 1 voodoo. How’s your cars and coffee mustang treating you?

What the hell is "copart"? Auctions and sinister vehicles? Why do you think this car is one of these?



Accord to Ford Spain the international warranty corrosion is 2 years:

For my Job I have access to trafic system, and the info the seller gave me is true. A finland client who recently has came To Spain, registered here the past november. Before this I have no info, I take your advice about carfax, I’ll do it.

Now im asking about warranty and the possibilities to change the hood (paying), also mantinaince here.

If the warranty has expired (I’ll rely on you folks overseas for the warranty period for international cars), you’ll need to source a new hood. Having that hood repainted won’t fix the issue as the issue is the aluminum itself.

Not sure how easy it would be to find an OEM GT350 hood overseas so you might need to find an aftermarket hood. Your Ford dealer may or may not be able to help with an OEM hood, I just don’t know how all that works for a car that was never sold in your country.

My take would be the DH from a reliability standpoint, especially if it will be tracked. I don't believe we'll ever see any real data regarding the gen 2 Voodoo being any more reliable. I've personally seen more of them let go than gen 1 engines. I also lost my gen 1 engine, not under warranty.

Unless you really want the subjective little extra bit of fun that comes with the Voodoo, it just isn't worth giving up the reliability of the Coyote motors. I don't expect the gen 4 Coyote to be any different.
