Yea, the quotes I received were in a similar range, I wish I had put the money towards one of those options. The match was decent, but the quality was only okay, you def get what you pay for there.
Also, they Cervini's louver does not come painted, or at least it didn't, so I paid a shop...
Here are two others I've read a bit about and the people who have purchased them seem to be happy with them. I can't comment to much on them as I've not seen them in person or used one. I've never used the drip tray for mine since it's a fair weather car. It's all fiberglass as far as I'm aware...
I've been running that hood for 3 years now without hood pins and no issues. It uses the factory connections without issue and I've never see any signs of wobbling or being unstable in my time with it. The hood is a bit heavier than the stock unit is.
I'd also like to add that while I'm...
When I got my kit, I didn't see anything in the instructions about not using the crash bar, only that they suggested sandwiching the bracket which was ok. But I wound up going behind the thing entirely since it fit that way without issue.
For the clutch, the stock will be fine initially, but I found that after a few really good pulls and some Dyno work that mine was really unhappy and hating it’s life. I swapped it after 1000 miles to a McLeod RXT and the car drives better and feels like it’s holding the power way better. My car...
That's a nice-looking hood, if I had the option at the time, I would have likely gone with that version, but when I bought mine, it was the first and only GT500 replica hood on the market. The other ones didn't follow till 6 months or so later.
I have the Cervini GT500 hood and I'm overall happy with it. A few things to note, it's actually a bit heavier than the OEM hood and it's noticeable if you have hood struts. The front of the hood where it meets the bumper, the lines don't exactly match, it's a bit bulged up, see the pic, it...
I'm curious about this as well, I've got no E85 around me and would like to add the meth kit for summertime safety around here. I was looking at the Snow Stg 2 kit, but I've not pulled the trigger yet.
I agree, it was definitely a two-person job to get the transmission back in, actually, getting it out and back in were the worst parts of the whole project. Just trying to figure out the angle / sweet spot to remove it and get it back in took the most time. Overall, I'm glad I did the project...
You can get those bolts directly from your dealer, I snapped one of my new bolts when I was doing my clutch two weeks ago on my 18, they were only $1.50 a piece direct from ford who was able to get them for me next day vs other vendors who sell them in sets of 8 for $30 + dollars. So if you have...
Thanks for all the comments. I wound up getting them torqued by putting a breaker bar on the crank bolt on the front of the motor and resting it against a pad and bracket, worked great. I was able to get them torqued correctly with my new set of bolts.
The first time I torqued the bolts, I did...
