R10's are fairly streetable. These cars are heavy so I would not recommend a fits all pad.

Mark, The system you designed seemed to work pretty well. Rotor temps stayed pretty low for your pace. What pad are you running? Those temps are pretty high for an OEM pad. Again. Nice job being able to test it our. It looks like you really need a big oil cooler.

Fill it to the bottom of the hole off. If you have a cooler run it, shut it off and re-check it.

Tremecs typically fill to the bottom of the hole. I think you may be trying to hard. It should be near the hole and move on.

Oh, I'm not concerned about his current failure, that is simply a surface finish issue most likely. The rest of the motor of unknown history, tune, maintenance and use is why I wouldn't be running 5-20 in this car. The reason they go to 5-50 is because it causes less issue with the VVT control...

5-30 is fine for NA, I would not be running 5-20 with a power adder, temps come up instantly under boost.

4 Piston brakes did not come with any type of performance brake pad. At those speeds the pads will give up in seconds. They are designed for normal speeds. You would have likely seen 1000+F rotor temperatures with a pad designed for a maximum of 600-800F. On top of that you have no brake...

Use an open lug nut, take a measurement to the end, remove wheel, run nut down to the same measurement, cut off wheel the stud, then unscrew the nut (which will clean up the thread, round the sharp edges with a flap disc, then you can run OEM or closed end lug nuts. We offer a mid-length stud...

Yes, not advised to fill it till it pours out, these things run pretty hot even with a cooler. Our kit always included the dipstick. As far as changing it without a service tool, either put in what you took out (which requires a lot of faith it was properly filled to begin with) measure the...

What issue are you trying to resolve?

Same as normal, just don't empty the M/C.

Hammer always works for me.

We have offered metal clamp in stems for years, most are aluminum, but they all accept the OEM sensors. https://www.opmustang.com/store/p239/2010_-_2020_FORD_MUSTANG_METAL_TPMS_Valve_Stem_-_Clamp-In_SET_OF_4.html#/

On the braces, did you keep the braces loose at both ends and try starting all the bolts first?
