Thoughts on this wear pattern on this 1 lobe? It's definitely more worn than the others.

I've been looking to replace my 25 year old SUV off and on the last few months. Needing something with 4 doors and (very mild) winter capable as the mustang hibernates. Could be a car or SUV. Don't really prefer awd, either. Almost everything that I have test driven so far is just flat out...

Anyone else have really rough cold starts with E85 when ambient temps are 90 degrees Fahrenheit? Only happens if the car sits for a while, like overnight. I sent the datalog of tbis happening to the tuner and the tuner says it's normal. This doesn't sound correct to me at all. I can't imagine...

I would post a log but apparently the file extension isn't accepted. Installed a Paxton a few weeks ago and it was running great. Only in the last couple of days have I witnessed that the car seems to stumble a bit when at half throttle around 3k to 4k rpm. Feels similar to when an engine is...

Gen2 with an 18 mani. IMRC delete. No aspirator. I'm installing a Paxton and am running a return style fuel system. I have a question about how to run vacuum lines. For the BOV, I believe I can use the brake booster line, install a check valve, and then tee off after that to the BOV. But...

Experiences with this company? I have hit a few snags with them but they seem so well regarded that I'm wondering if I'm the anomaly. I purchased their return style fuel system based in a brief conversation I had with one of their tech support guys. Told him my plans (paxton Novi, E85, size...

Stupid question here fellas...but uh...how much force should it take to put this lock ring on? Or am I an idiot and overlooking something? (No sleep lately so entirely possible 👍) I am riding the struggle bus. I feel like I'm going to break something if I put any more force on the tool. I...

I went to the Street takeover in KC last night and watched a TT gen 3 go 6.97 in the quarter....it was in the Street Class. Lol If I would have known it was going to be that fast, I would have taken a video. Though I would bet you'll see it on 1320's youtube channel here in a while. I'll snap...

Canadian "study" consisting of a survey given to 18 year olds seems to align narcissistic and sadist traits with....louder exhausts. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't want to wake up the dead when I drive by but like most enthusiasts I do appreciate a good exhaust and rumble. This whole article...

Is this O2 sensor supposed to have a bung threaded into the manifold on a 2015 GT from the factory? This is the only 1 of my 4 O2 sensors set up this way, where there is a hex head bung in the manifold rather than just a smooth bung. Hard to see in the Pic but the O2 sensor is red and the...

....what is the difficulty level? Assuming a person is mechanically inclined, wrenches on their own car for 99% of things, has basic tools, has (most) of the knowledge, etc. I am in the middle of doing the timing set and OPG in preparation for boost. I have found this process quite...

I have read that a possible cause of crank snout failure is bottoming out the crank pulley bolt during install. (Aside from aftermarket dampener and/or a bad crank) Since the crank saver bolt is longer and designed to fill the void that Ford left in the crank, wouldn't this crank saver bolt run...

I am in the process of doing the timing set on my gen 2 coyote. Car has 100k miles and runs fine I pulled the timing cover, and sitting on the passenger side tensioner was the metal piece pictured below. It was just sitting on the front of the body of the Tensioner. I'm surprised it didn't...

I'm a bit surprised how clean this looks at 100k miles when compared to other vehicles I've worked on. Not that I was expecting sludge, but at least discoloration and maybe some small buildup. Cam wear looks pretty OK. No grooves that I can feel. I use Penzoil Platinum at 3k interval, if...

Am I missing part of my piston?? Lol I did a compression test on all cylinders as I'm preparing for FI. All cylinders tested 212 psi except cylinder #5 which tested at 240. I borescoped the cylinders and found some carbon buildup as expected. However....on cylinder #6 I see what looks like...

Did a compression test on my 15 GT with a cold engine. All cylinders read at basically 212 psi except cylinder #5 which reads 240. I repeated the test multiple times to verify. Wet test still increased readings verifying the increased reading isn't from oil. All spark plugs looked basically...

Can anyone confirm the OEM part number for the crank pulley/Harmonic balancer for a 2015 GT? I am getting some very mixed results online. Is the same as the V6 ? Same as 2018+?

I have a 15 mustang GT and while I love it, my eyes have started to wander. Especially, since car has 90k miles From a performance goal standpoint of ~700bhp and fun factor I have started to entertain the idea of getting into a GT500 or ZL1. My goal was always to boost my mustang, but there...

2 versions of the Hurricane I6 TT will be available Standard and HO, with the latter boasting 550hp. Could be an interesting car/platform. Time will tell. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60082380/2025-dodge-charger-sixpack-revealed/

Wife wants a mustang after falling in love with mine so we have been watching prices for a couple of years now. She is being patient and knows what she wants. Good grief s550 prices are still crazy high in my area. Anything from 2015 to 2021 is essentially $33k+. But even stranger is that...
