  1. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    10-4. As far as radials, I know auto's generally run a radial. I just thought this situation may be different...obviously I wasn't outside the car to see weight transfer and only making 700-750whp, but launching prior felt like I had freaking 100% anti-squat. I'm afraid I'm not going to have...
  2. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Ahah I thought maybe that was the case! I've actually already watched your video man. I think a 10.5 would be ok....I believe you're right around 12.5 inches affected width and while the 10.5 will be stretched, it won't have the same poke. Regardless I can't 100% recall backspacing we talked...

    You’re the man, Crank it is…question…but no flames lol…I know there can be some negative buzz with them. Mmr crank no good?
  4. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Was the the t bar because of the width or height? I appreciate the heads up, I may got a bit smaller. Are you running aed knuckles?
  5. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    So I ended up ordering some Hoosier 27.5 front runners bias ply's along with 30x10.5 Drag radials...however I think I'm going to go bias ply all around despite the auto. Reasoning is I actually think the setup will be able to take at least 1700 wheel being sleeved...that, the nitrous off the...
  6. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Lmao, exactly why I skipped 8's ahahah I mean, at the same time...compare that to the number of 8 and 9 second cars. Dime a dozen in comparison.
  7. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Ahah maybe I'll do a little 7 second time lapse at the end as a parody :p With all the backorders right now though I have a feeling this is gonna take a minute. So, I've officially ordered 3 things twice, forgetting I had already purchased them :cwl: In order to keep myself in line I'm going...
  8. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Also....if anyone runs fathouse fabs cage and reads this....could they shoot me a line? I'm worried about some of the bar placement in the back interfering with the air lift tank. I know it'll be close.
  9. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Nitrous in, tank mounted. Doesnt look like Ill be able to keep the carpet unless I just butcher it. I'm going to have to run a square 5 gallon ice tank on the other side as the wheel well has the airlift motor and manifold, and I'd rather not reconfigure them, leaving a bunch of holes where the...
  10. 5.2L head gaskets FYI

    Unfortunately they have or else I would :| I'll sit on them for a bit...maybe Ill try to move them and pick up a new pair.
  11. 5.2L head gaskets FYI

    Bookmarked for the future when the Cometic MLS 5.2L headgaskets I ordered two days ago give up the ghost :cwl:
  12. Kentucky Gen 2 ARP main studs/Head studs

    Unfortunately it looks like those pieces are on backorder until March. I'd like to get my build going prior to, so if any awesome person has an extra set laying around, let me know.
  13. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Ah man I can only imagine being diagnosed at that age. That's one aspect I felt "lucky" for...although Im not old, I've lived a decent live. But thank goodness it's managed well on her end. I understand the fear of things getting worse; I can empathize. I have a little impatience with this build...
  14. If you ain't first, you're last; 7 second S550 build

    Little steps here and there. Temp dropped hard this week; unfortunately the individual I had scheduled to come run electricity to the workshop recently never showed up, so I think it'll be my propane heater and portable lighting for the winter. Really waiting on the bulk of the engine...
  15. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    Interesting. No I won't be doing the tuning, that is out of my wheelhouse and not something I want to experiment on with the cost involved. I had decided to go standalone for a few reasons...firstly my good friend that tunes extensively uses Haltech quite a bit, secondly, a lot of car sectors...
  16. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    Yep, dedicated. It's a 2017.
  17. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    Yooo man, will do! What area you in?
  18. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    Im overbuilding the car for the future. I don't want to spend X amount, hit one finite goal, say Im finished...and then want more ...which always seems to happen...to have to go for a WHOLE new setup. In the long run it'll be money saved.
  19. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    I don't know enough in that realm to comment. DI is efficient but I just personally am not upset at the negatives vs any benefits for my setup. The GOOD thing is, obviously Mustangs are a popular platform and I'm sure tuners out there are making it work. I had an odd platform...I turbocharged a...
  20. Standalone FI guys...whatcha running?

    Yes. DI is a different beast. Learned that the hard way turboing a brand new DI platform no one seemed to be able to tune for.
