I think different people call the major refresh that happened in 2019 different things. Here’s what fathouse fab had to say about the “gen 2.”

Just curious, was it a relatively early chassis number 2020?

I’m curious, did you drive the Mach 1 on track or was it a GT with the coyote? Auto or manual? My home track in the 350 I’d be at 8150rpm right at 2 big braking zones, so the thought of being stuck at 7,500 rpm’s kinda sucked, but I figured the low end torque would be helpful is a few other...

Stock platinum plugs are fine for 99% of use cases, especially if the car is largely stock. The only time I’ve needed to go one or two steps colder on the iridium plugs was due to turning the boost up on my turbo cars (and timing via tune). For your use case, going colder won’t harm anything...

Welcome to the “other” club!!

…. This guys mustangs….. And sometimes audi’s

You’re right, they absolutely have, and for good reason. Ford tells the dealership to do minimal investigation in order to determine if the engine is trash. As long as dealerships aren’t flagging the reasons for failures and reporting commonalities, ford doesn’t need to issue a recall if a...

In fairness, that’s because Roush touched it ;)

Holy cow, a miracle!!!!! Nice dude, congrats. On forum?

Odd he thought to blackout the vin….. if I was communicating with the new owner of my old car, what could possibly be to gain from blacking out the vin? He doesn’t own the car anymore any you now own it. Seems a little strange. I’d lay out your concerns for him directly and ask for further...

Oh gotcha….. sorry I’m not 100% up on the lingo ;) Interesting it has a different vin. If it was an error from ford performance, if you emailed them once you have possession they might send you a new one. Have you run his VIN and your VIN through a vin decoder to see if they’re both gt350’s...

Are you referring to the welcome package that includes the FPC model, or are you referring to the gt350 supplement that goes in the glove box? Just the chassis number is shown on the model. Check your year for what should be included: https://www.teamfordconnect.com/owner-welcome-kit

One and done. You’re the only K1993

According to a friend (who I won’t name but is well known on this forum) who has deep connections to ford racing and their engineers, said they ditched the flat plane crank in the racing program as soon as they were contractually able to due to reliability issues. The first year of CPC 5.2 was...

Previous 2019 owner here…. I sold my car at a profit immediately after getting my engine replaced under warranty. I dropped a valve on track at 9,200 miles (approximately 5k miles were track miles). I personally know of 4 people with 2019-2020 cars who have also blown engines, along with 2 who...

Just noticed the bird and the helmet above the cabinet. Dope! edit: as soon as I hit send I realized there was a bird in the picture…. I was referring to the one with sidewinders ;)

The first section doesn’t apply to you, so good to go there. The second section is essentially saying any failure associated with a modification isn’t covered. If you modify the engine and the engine tanks, the warranty won’t cover you. If you install a roll cage and the engine fails, you’re...

Unfortunately yes for the fronts. A cross brace prevents you from pulling the pads out of the back of the caliper. The rear calipers can stay in place for pad removal.

Filler funnel, yes. Oil filter guide, not yet. We made some progress this fall when another member graciously loaned his car for a week….. but alas the solution we came up with wasn’t perfect and I refuse to ship anything that isn’t perfect. Sorry… I wish the design of the oil filter housing...

Thanks for the advice to others as well as the shout out! Glad you were able to complete the job with your apprentice!
