  1. Stainless Power headers almost touching ac

    Do you think that the silicon hose will cause false knock? I’m hoping since it isn’t metal to metal that it won’t. I’ll do a data log and send it in to PBD and see what they say.

    Thank you!
  3. Stainless Power headers almost touching ac

    Something like this. First whiskey tango mockup. šŸ˜‡ Might keep a little bit of the heat off of that ac part also.
  4. Stainless Power headers almost touching ac

    It's not touching, but I can barely slip an envelop between the two, so my guess is that under load that it would make contact and probably have the computer pull timing. Not a unique problem, might try loosening the engine mounts and moving the engine as far to the driver's side as I can, as...

    Just stalled some long tube headers over the weekend and had stripes done by a shop on Monday. Other than, just PP2 wheels and the track kit, visually.
  6. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    I installed some Stainless Power long tubes over the weekend. I've read it should take 10-12 hours, but like many say, what a pain in the ass. It ended up taking me a lot longer than that, mainly the studs, holding up the headers with my head while trying to put in studs where I could and just...
  7. creaking sound in back going over speed bumps

    I've seen some of these types of posts, with different parts (or stock) where nuts have backed off. One poster had one lower front strut bolt completely missing and the bolt was halfway backed out on the other. Did you tighten all of the suspension components with the weight of the car on...
  8. X pipe vs H pipe

    I have an X-pipe, never had an H-pipe on a Coyote. I still think an older 5.0 with Flowmasters sound amazing (has three Foxbody cars over the years), but with the new one I wanted to stick with the higher rpm sound, and it seemed like the X-pipe better complimented that. I love the sound, and...
  9. 2024 DH just went 156mph in the 1/4 (at 4,270 lbs)

    This. I watched a Beefcake vid on this the other day. Whipple is working with a few shops to tweak the tunes to optimize it.
  10. How to get rid of these spots

    Late reply, but great vid. Thank you!
  11. What's the deal with the foam?

    Washing in the sun is tough. When it's too hot I don't do it at all. I use the air compressor foam cannon from Chemical guys and their Pink soap, and also two bucket wash. I also have a CR Spotless spot free setup and it works fantastic. I still won't use that in the heat though because I do...
  12. Post Pix of your S550 with aftermarket wheels and tires

    Love the hood and the stripes. Looks great!
  13. ESS or Whipple

    It really depends on what you want and what your goals are. I had a few Fox body blower cars back in the day (when I got my 1989 notchback, the Vortech A-trim and Paxton were the popular ones), but for this build I want to keep it streetable and set up for handling. We sometimes hit the...
  14. Alignment Settings after Ford Track Handling Pack Install

    Word up. I will find a place with experience, this shop had just started doing alignments.
  15. Got the Ford Track Handling Package installed last weekend

    Thank you! So true. This is my fourth Mustang (three Foxbody cars) and I've done the 'too low' thing. It's just right for a daily, like you said. šŸ‘
  16. My babies got beat up last night

    Damn, so sorry. 😢
  17. 2024 GT or back up ?

    You'll always be able to hop it up (eventually it will be unlocked), so stock performance is more of a temporary disappointment. I'd go for what you like the looks and feel of better myself. It's hard to justify the price of a new car, though. I recently bought my 2020 10R80 PP1 with PP2...
  18. Drag Strip Results and Questions

    So true. I'ver only had mine for about six months but within a month I got a bone stock dyno (for a baseline) and ran it bone stock at the track for the same reason. The elevation of Firebird Raceway in Idaho is about 2,650, so I used the NHRA elevation calculator to let me know what a similar...
  19. Throttle loss in third gear 3500rpm

    I was going to suggest the tune (happened to me when tuning, the tuner sent a new one and fixed it), but it looks like yours happens on the stock tune, too.
