That's an understatement! Worth the extra effort though with the TCA047's. Eliminated wheel hop on quick shifts and power shifts. Seems more stable in hard turns at speed. No additional NVH here. Great mod. Thanks, Kelly! GOOD stuff. Keep us posted on the lockout improvements you're trying out...

Mine came EXACTLY the same way... NO plastic film, and NO packing. Just threw it in the box and sealed it up. Luckily, it was fine. With the GT350 throttle body/intake combo, if the throttle body is already mounted, that makes one end of the package heavy, I would think. Don't know, as I...

I think it's a vendor/supplier issue. Ford doesn't make a lot of their parts. I worked for a Tier 1 supplier some years ago. When we made service, rather than production parts, we packaged them (properly!). Your post confirms this is still going on... the difference in suppliers. The folks...

Just got a note from Benny at Levittown. Ford has stopped shipping all manifolds until the packaging problem is corrected. No ETA as of today on when shipments will resume. But... I'd rather wait and have one hopefully delivered intact. Couldn't pass up the price. Still a bummer. That is...

7mm doesn't sound like much, but it's a little over 18% of increased cross-sectional area. The 87mm throttle body is matched to the intake as well. But the biggie is that it's only ~$200.00. That's cheap for a drive by wire throttle body. And the 80mm stocker won't directly bolt up to the...

Yep! Works great on the honeycomb grille and on wheels with recessed lug nuts too! That is all...

That is all...

Yep. USPSALIMITED... The use of red on that one MGW bolt is to keep it there so it doesn't vibrate loose. Remember, you'll be applying torque to tighten it, not just "finger tight". All you'll need is one or two drops... just enough to encompass about 3 threads on the end. Here, more is...

On the "red", I've used either some PB Blaster (let it set) if there's anything rubber or flammable around it, or a propane torch to heat it otherwise. It only bonds up to ~500 degrees. Best of luck! That is all...

I'll second that! :thumbsup: That is all... "Skippy"

And I'll second that! That is all...

Did my compact install on a set of ramps, no problems. The bolt that's been mentioned that's a PITA will come out if you pull down on the tailshaft and move it to the side so the head of the bolt moves towards the rear of the car. Same for re-insertion. 10mm ratchet wrench is a must. No...

:amen: And thanks! That is all...

Square setup with 19x10 +35 FS01's with 275/40 BFG Sport Comp2's. Stock PP ride height. If I drop it... it'll scrape going up my driveway. Life's a bitch and then ya die... or marry one. Here's a straight on shot of the right front: Very, very gloss black. You can see the clouds in the...

Also, the added weight is to the outside of the wheel/tire mass. Minor decrease in acceleration. FivepointOHYEAH Paul is on the money... super grip vs. everyday driveability. Truthfully answer that question, and you've made the right choice for YOU. Best of Luck either way. That is all...

Yes... and it beats the purple dinosaur road rash finish as well! Now you do this AFTER I bought mine! But I'm a happy camper. :thumbsup: What offsets and widths are available for the 18's? Thinking about a set in the spring for the T-Bird. Going to change brakes/hubs and go to a 4½"...

Congrats! Come on down... the weather's fine! We're expecting some snow "flurries" tomorrow night around Atlanta. And a flood watch too! :D That is all...
