  1. Rust on wheel hubs

    Damn I wanted to give my suspension a little hat! And yes to the car seeing salt, it's in FL now but still some salt in the air. I'd love to get under it someday and get all that surface rust off, but then again a full exhaust would take care of that issue too . . . 😎
  2. Rust on wheel hubs

    Ok, looking for thoughts on a thought I had recently when taking off wheels after a wash. As you can see from the photos, the center of the rotors (the hub? Not sure the exact title for that specific area) has a ton of surface rust that just kinda looks nasty. Of course, it is cosmetic only...
  3. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    I know some have posited that the "root cause" is the engine and how high it revs, and the result of how fast it spins everything is the issue. It seems to make sense to me, but I'm not as experienced as most. If that's the case, the "root cause" is simply the engine/car/design themselves...
  4. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    Filled up today for $4.739 per gallon for 93. Ordered a case of Motorcraft 5w50 and FOUND AN FL-2087! All in for about $230 (160 for oil, 70 for filter with shipping). Seems maybe this "oil shortage" stuff hasn't hit 5w50 yet? What a fun time to have a Shelby :crazy:
  5. What are you paying for 93 octane now? [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS ⚠️]

    Anyone else notice a .50¢ price jump Monday this week? Down by me 941 area of FL. Driving into work 745am - "wow $4 a gallon flat, I'll fill up after work!" Driving home around 515 - "wow $4.59 for regular, tracks for a Monday"

    Looks good. How's the difference? Did you go straight from stock to that? I forgot until your last post that there are other material for one-piece driveshafts, at least.
  7. What are you paying for 93 octane now? [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS ⚠️]

    My personal stash of 93, mixed daily every morning after my workout and protein shake, is free for the masses.
  8. One of 562 ? Which is mine ?

    OP, I'm not sure if this forum is the right one for you. This is for the S550 mustangs from 2015-2023; the GT350 from that gen that is the subject of this forum is vastly different from your car. Different gen, made by Ford Performance and not touched by Shelby American, bespoke drivetrain...

    Uhhhh . . . Only one you say? My procrastination strikes again . . .
  10. Engine rocking aggressively

    So glad I clocked that dumb statement about a "regular mustang" as soon as it was made, lots of entertainment from this thread 🤣 OP you are entirely justified with wanting to ensure a shop knows there are differences between the GT350 and a GT. One could be faced with a 30k bill if they treat...
  11. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    I say it is a sign to go ahead with a weight savings opportunity. That is my plan for when all that crap eventually shits the proverbial bed. Maybe I can get away with treating the AC the same when my compressor goes like everyone else's 💀 But I won't pretend the convenience they bring won't...
  12. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    Girlfriend went to a game night with some girlfriends, so I drank beer and cleaned up the Shelby for Cars and Coffee tomorrow 🍻🐍 I am definitely never going to beat the "middle-aged white guy with a sports car that would rather spend Friday night drinking beer alone in the garage and detailing...
  13. 2017 GT350R spark plug change

    Any issue getting to any of them, or upon removal? I am approaching 37k on my 2018 and I'm sure it would help me sleep at night to swap them out. Hoping they aren't seized and/or I make a "now the head/engine needs to come out" mistake. I haven't read of any issues like that but curious on...
  14. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    TLDR: GT350 helped me retain sanity and get back to normal 🐍 Completed my cross-country trip in the 15ft U-Haul box truck (a certified heap - had to call uhaul about several lights and then a misfire that popped up right as I got to Sacramento). No tickets or other issues, all items...
  15. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    I did nothing TO it today, but here is my chariot for a 2300 mile drive out to Cali for family reasons. This thing handles slightly different from a GT350 . . . makes me appreciate her even more! Maybe one day I'll make this drive in the Shelby to even things out . . .
  16. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    I will definitely keep that in mind for when I eventually have to address the spoiler.
  17. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    Cleaned up all the adhesive. I got about 99% of it, hoping the rest comes off in the regular wash. Either way, I can drive it now! Definitely some damage to the underlying black paint but hey, they're side - view mirrors . . . They can always be replaced. I may actually try my hand at...
  18. What did you do to your GT350 today?

    Today, I used my girlfriend's hair dryer (one of several) to de-carbonify the GT350. I took off the covers on the side view mirror and the door handles. My concern was that they were holding water and causing unnecessary corrosion risk. Upon removal, it tentatively appears that is not the...
