For those here that haven't died yet or gone back to living under a rock, I'm curious as to how many of you are still on your original battery. I'm still using mine. I picked up my factory ordered 5hundo on January 11th, 2020. Battery was stamped on 6/11/19. Car is always being trickled and...

I pulled the bypass valve off of the supercharger on my 2020 GT500 in order to prep it for porting at Kong. When I got it back and installed it onto the engine, I needed to reinstall the valve but couldn't find the spec or dimension for the proper amount of preload. That's because it doesn't...

Just trying to be productive while waiting for VMP to get going on an initial tune for me so today I tried removing the plate and transferring it to the VMP lid I intend to use. Didn't use a heat gun. Tried dental floss and quickly realized I was wasting my time. Then I tried a zip tie and it...

So I had a Raptor R supercharger ported at Kong Performance for use on my '20 GT500. I tried to find specs on either unit and learned there is little to nothing out there. Eaton/Ford wants these serviced as an entire unit which is as wasteful as it gets. At least there are a few pulley options...

I purchased a takeoff Raptor supercharger and sent it to Kong for porting. The blower came with its respective throttle body but the electrical connector was smashed during shipping. The mechanicals are fine but you can't buy the electronics separately from Ford. So I had no issue popping the...

...and it involves 3 components. A new rear line assembly (actually two lines in tandem) and two stubs that attach to the lines, run into the case and are secured by new design flanges. I'll try to illustrate as best I can for those that may not be that familiar with the hardware I'm speaking...

So now that my 2020 GT500 is out of warranty I figured it may now be time for a few power mods. I avoided anything along these lines while still covered as I didn't want an issue at the dealer should I not be covered because of something they didn't approve of. So...while I had "Whippled" my...

Barely a pulse. So you got somethin to say - lets see how far we can get with a photo only. No need for a collage, one will suffice. Show us what brought you here in the first place...

I haven't driven my '20 GT500 much in the past few years. Health challenges, endless shit weather, family matters, you name it. I store it inside and it is always on a trickle charger. And as well sealed as it is, every now and then a mouse migrates inside. After having mice build a nest on the...

Why is it so difficult to do the same thing for 2022/2023 engines that was done for 2020/2021? Is it a UAW thing, were there process changes...what? This is getting ridiculous. We've talked about valve cover issues elsewhere but this first one I have to share was issued today. The second "mess"...

Wildcardfox's car, N0012, finally showed up yesterday. A little dirty from the journey but cleaned up very nicely. Post bath... Gorgeous car Brett. Enjoy that beast!

Hot off the press. Thanks again B! Funny thing is I just spent time under the car taking a close look at my own lines. Visual inspection shows both lines are slightly cocked, something every GT500 will suffer from. Anyway, I took some field dimensions and sketched the relevant area just in...

Thanks B!

Thanks again B for the heads up.

Ordered from Lethal last fall and as many here know it has been a bit of a wait. Anyway, delivery truck showed up yesterday afternoon. The box, fairly large, had one opening punched into it but there was no corresponding damage to the wing in that area. There was however, damage elsewhere...

You guys are seeing this, right? https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/ford-debuts-2022-shelby-gt500-heritage-edition-and-2022-mustang-ecoboost-coastal-edition.167627/#post-3411087

This one is interesting. Down just a quart of oil and unable to start the engine? Used to that on a lawn mower but haven't seen that on a Mustang before. Anyway, the nice thing about this one would be the inclusion of the TCM (transmission control module) update to the latest calibration as...
