If you have a V6 in your S550 buy a 3.5 ecoboost motor or just turbocharge your cyclone. The V6 is a very very capable motor and people who tune coyotes will be able to tune it. You can pick up a used 3.5 ecoboost for like 2k right now. Because people havent caught on to how awesome these...

Why.... That would be a stupid swap. Huge waste of money to put in a ridiculously heavy motor. And for what just to say you can? There is no performance reason to do that swap Also it should be noted that Carol shelby HATED large displacement engines. He never wanted to put the 427 in the...

Yes actually it depends on how the muffler is designed. The more "free flowing" or straight thru the system the greater the chance for it to spit flames and crackle. Also a shorter muffler will have less time for the exhaust to cool so anything marketted as "race mufflers" or "extreme" will...

Has to be catless for flames. What happens is when you hop off the gas pedal, you cut the air going into the engine abruptly which makes the afr go rich for a second when the rich mixture hits the exhaust pipes it ignites... That's the "poping" you hear. With cats on the flames die off on the...

Sounds like the timing signal was fucked up and the ECU was advancing it too much which melted the piston. It could have been caused by the timing being improperly set. You said you changed oil pump gears if you were off of TDC slightly that could have thrown the timi,g off but not enough to...

It will still pop and crackle with the X pipe. Its doing it because there is no resonator and your hoping off the gas so the Air fuel is a little rich. My car pops bone stock when driven hard... If You get headers or cat deletes the car will start spitting flames...

A 1 Is that a 50th anniversary grill on an 18? Didnt know those fit those years

Absolutely. Unless You have 5k to respray/wrap it. Changing the color also risks your resale as the new owner will logically assume the car was in a wreck you didn't report why you changed the color, with the panel fitment issues all s550s come with its gonna be hard to disprove that. Just...

To focus on just the engine of this car is to ignore 90% of what the car is about... And its a real tragedy and a diservice to the engineers and the guys who put it together. If You want to go fast in the 1/4 just buy a fox.

If All you care about is drag racing i get why this is a hard choice. And if your aim is to drag DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. save yourself the money buy a foxbody and a used F150 motor. This car is not going to survive drag racing long without grenading that trans, guaranteed. And theres no escaping...

Yeah basically

And credit where its due The Voodoo for ford represents them pushing the envelope unlike the LS, where GM has been building basically the same engine for the past what almost 30 year's... Reliability and longevity doesnt just happen it comes from evolution.

Let's stop living in denial here we know the voodoos have a rep... How many have we seen blow up under 10k miles... Just statistically speaking getting to 60k is impressive. 100k will be astonishing. Does that take away from the car no. If you look at it in the context of similar classed...

Agreed thats unacceptable.. Worse you're out the labor cost. Sucks man

Gotta protect your beer from mermaids I guess

Stangmode is giving away a free gt500... It's got to be fake...

lol I was close. You always want to double check the air gap on these cars. Sucks ass

Wait... Why did y'all have guns on a boat... What were you hunting sea lions?

Then buy the gt500. You'll never have to worry about anything

Exactly why i think, for the money these are the best cars on the market right now
