Ford like all manufactures rates HP at the crank. So if you are making 403 at the wheels you should be making more like 440-460 at the crank.
Put a 2018 intake manifold on it and bump up the redline to 7500 for the best bang for the buck horsepower.
This sums it up. Business is slowing. Revenue is falling. The upcoming generation is rumored to be untunable using the normal process.
Lund looks to be a one trick pony that has just broken a leg. Pretty normal behavior from a company that has coasted off of previous success with most of its...
Knock is not a mythical creature. A setup can be created to find the source of the sound. I havenāt chased knock in many years but before the smart days(GN days), microphones were used to find it. For the coyote it looks like the knock frequency should be around 6.18khz. Putting a few...
If your brakes will make the ABS work from XXX until you are stopped, you donāt need more braking force. Your tires are the limiting factor.
What bigger brakes will give you is more cycles until overheated. I would go for the cheaper brakes and put the money elsewhere.

I am glad you have an awesome car to show for it now thou. Looking forward to so number from the track.
I think the misunderstanding here is that changing from E10 to E20 will increase octane. Nope all it will do is allow the companies to make money by lowering the amount of octane additives. Gas companies want it and corn farmers also want it.

I hope they are in good shape. From a cost prospective though, itās all the little things that add up and get you. From taxes, shipping, head stud kit, new oil pump, gaskets and other small odds and ends, when all the receipts are in you hand it will be pretty close.
If you add in you can sell...
With no core, 3800. It really is a tossup of just putting a used motor in it though. He would probably have 6k in it after everything. A good used gen 2 fetches about the same.
It probably burned the oil. 1250 miles per quart isnāt a crazy burn rate if you drive the car hard.
Check the cam caps to see if they are scored. If they look good buy yourself and a factory short block and a parts washer. If they are messed up decisions will need to be made.
I didnāt realize the cooling effect of E was that large. I always knew there was some benefit but 4.5x gas is massive.
Moral is all Mustangs should be alcoholics.
I donāt know but you can search or purchase a factory service manual for you vehicle.
If you are OCD, having step by step directions along with every torque spec will be something you will greatly value.
