It's a quirk in the parts system on the website you're on. I went to Levittown and got the same result, but when I scrolled down the page, I saw this, Diagram 2, which is thee correct one:

The diagram shows an S550 rear floating-caliper brake assembly for a GT or an Ecoboost model. A GT350 uses different running gear than the rest of the S550 product line and there are no caps on either axle because the hub design doesn't allow it.

That's on a clean, dry wheel stud. If there's WD40 or anti-seize on the threads, you have to lower the torque or you can damage the stud.

The "oil consumption issue" started with the 2017's and ended after the 2018's. The 2016's were pretty good actually - mine has 50 track days and about 35,000 miles and it goes through a quart of oil every 1200 miles or so and has since new. My completely unconfirmed belief is that the 2017's...

I'm getting a chuckle out of this. Basically, if you want an S550 Mustang bodyshell set up by the Ford factory so you can take delivery, drive it to a race track and then run it for a full day of top-level A group sessions without hurting the tires, the brakes or anything else, all you need is...

There is no separate module for the headlights. They're controlled directly by the Body Control Module, which is behind the interior trim panel ahead of the passenger door in the passenger footwell. The BCM controls a ton of stuff in the car, and it's more likely that the problem is the lamp...

You'll need the code read from the VDM (Vehicle Dynamics Module) to find out what the problem is. Most likely it's a problem with one of the ride height sensors. I had to replace one last year after I started getting an intermittent error like that.

In the decade I've owned my 2016 GT350 I've run Motorcraft, Mobil 1 FS and Mobil 1 Supercar 5w50 oils. I have UOA reports covering all three oils. The car has done 50 track days and I'm still on the original engine. Based on viscosity and wear metals levels, you literally can't tell the three...

I'm struggling to see where P0300 has anything to do with scratched cylinders...

Have they told you what codes came up? When I read this thread, what I see is you saying "I got a CEL, took the car to the dealer and they said the cylinders were cracked". The response from owners of these engines sounds like "we don't see cracked cylinders" when they look at the...

I'm still here Head diameter - 17.5mm (11/16" almost exactly) Shank diameter - 6.1mm (the right size to fit in a 1/4" hole) Shank length - 24mm (measured from the edge of the flange to the top - probably 1" nominal)

Sigh. The min-max stuff doesn't matter. As I've posted over and over in this thread, regardless of when or how you measure it, if there's oil in the lowest hole, your sump is "full". If it's not above the lowest hole, add oil until it shows up in the lowest hole. It couldn't be easier.

I have to say I'm a bit baffled by the idea of putting this 8-4-1 exhaust on a GT350 with a Voodoo FPC engine. The whole point of 8-4-1 is to create an FPC sound with a CPC engine. An FPC engine doesn't need that arrangement to sound like an FPC engine - it is one! If you find some Youtube...

The photo is a factory stock 2018 GT350 non-R wheel with a factory stock Michelin Pilot Super Sport 295/35x19 tire. Probably on the car since the car left the factory. Front brakes look lightly used. Overall, looks like a good choice, actually.

This article by Billy Johnson on MotoIQ lays out the wheel stiffness reality for carbon fiber rims vs aluminum. https://motoiq.com/tested-carbon-revolution-carbon-fiber-wheels/ Check out page 7. This article is why I run OEM GT350 (aluminum) rims bolted onto my CCM brakes on my GT350 at the...
