Mulling this all over in my head, it sounds like a worst case scenario putting a gen 3 truck intake on my gen 2 truck which is tuned to rev to 7000 should yield better power past 5000rpm where I believe the gen 2 truck intake starts to fall off. Sounds pretty reasonable for an intake you can...

Not to hijack this a ton but I've long wondered how much better the Gen 3 truck intake is compared to the Gen 2 truck intake. I know years back people on this forum were playing with Gen 2 truck intakes on Mustangs and I thought you were one of em. Gen 3 truck manifolds are cheap and I have a...

Define "warmer than I'd like", 6R80's are meant to run in a 180-215 range give or take.

Add this one to the list https://www.iaai.com/VehicleDetail/44721413~US 1FA6P8RF3F5501509

This has worked on Fords going back into the 2000's, my 2004 Marauder will do it. Pretty sure my 1996 Bronco will also do it. As stated above, foot to the floor (all the way to the floor, not half way, not 3/4) hit the start button, let it crank and after 10-15 seconds you should build some oil...

E85 has never been easy to find in NJ so this is good to know

This forum really needs a like 'Carlisle Master thread' sticky every year or something, I see the thread stuck in the mid-atlantic section is from 2020 I've gone every year since 2011, the show is mainly mustangs but you can find other Fords if you actually walk around the showfield (last year...

Sure, but I can't promise I'll have all the answers. What color is your Mustang Oxford White

This is the pig tail I used. Unlike some in this thread, I did not hack off every wire and splice in the entire new pigtail. I depinned the factory harness, replaced only the burnt wire, added in the ground wire and spliced in the repair. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09N3FN8XZ

Yeah, it's probably super melted. I haven't dealt with this (yet) on my Mustang but I had to fix it on my 16 F150 last year, some guys on the F150 forum had plugs melted so bad they had to hack it off piece by piece. Mine was pretty stuck, I had to pull pretty hard to get it to finally break...

I have a friend who used L&M for his gen 2 coyote with good things to say, they've been around a long while. I plan on having them do a rebuild on a set of 4v mod motor heads I have in the future.

Did you ship it over there and back and not even get to drive it? Whatever the case that really sucks to hear, I always wanted to ship my E39 m5 over there as I felt like it'd been the absolute perfect car to drive in the city and out in the country. I was interested to hear how your...

When I lived in NJ I never ran a front plate on the Mustang (told the dealer do not drill or I won't accept the car) or my Bronco (broke the mount off on the trail and never put it back on) I never got bothered in the Mustang, I got a ticket in the Bronco one time by a state trooper but it was...

Eh? all the ones I go to in the lehigh valley and the one in carlisle have E85. You're right about it being virtually non-existent in NJ tho

Can't say I ever knew about this. I have Apex VS5's with PS4S tires and my tires didn't lose anything even sitting all winter. I would just go with a bead sealant, that is usually what shops use for old wheels with corroded beads that don't seal so well.
