Anderson Composites has been the best for me. I have used many of their parts and win tons of events with them. They hold up to Track use and TX Mile 187.7 mph so far!

Here is my latest report.
This is my 5,2L voodoo with CPC engine that I built in 2016 now making 530 whp and 438 torque NA and i have run 125 shot of nitrous on road course and during TX mile events.
I am super pleased with the motor and now have over 34K miles on it with at least 1/3 raced...
I bought the VCT cam lock outs and spare set of Phasers and checked the PTV with cams at Max advance and max retard. It is what I was told to do by the Engineer. I was also testing the 5.0 rockers with the higher ratio than the 5.2 rockers/followers.
That's impressive! Breaking the crank with turbo is very surprising! Was that block built? I'm curious about internals? What cause it to fail? I want to build one of mine for twins eventually. It may go in my 2005 TX mile/Drag car with a 6R80 conversion.
Any reason not to go to the...
I would check Piston to valve clearance. The valve pocket don't look near as deep as what is in the Voodoo. 11:1 is less dome so that may be the reason. OEM 12:1 Mahle pistons are 9.8 cc dome and -2 cc for the pockets.
Looks like a nice build though. Coyote crank or the Voodoo? There is a...
Correct but the cams for the Voodoo with 14mm lift and 270 duration are also the same specs used for the 5.2 CPC conversion cams so the PTV is same if you are using stock pistons. OEM dome is 7.8 cc.
Wow $$$ just like the 302S pan. I just email my guy today at WBL ..guess I should have asked him. Not sure I will spend money on it. So far I haven't had issues with the composite pan. Anybody actually put eyeballs on one? Is it the same 302S pan?
Yes!, I'm going to clean up the bowl area and around the guides. I only worked on the exhaust ports on my currents head and only in the port...smoothing and matching to headers. I never pull the valves out as I had limited time on build it. I have pics of each of the intake ports now with...
@honeybadger
One is the intake phaser and the other is the exhaust phaser. the gears are attached. You need 2 of each.
The M*6004*A50R is just the phasers and the 12 bolts to attache them on cams. I didn't mean the full timing kit...I don't know if the GR3Z phasers even come in the full...
This is what came in the FR upgrade phaser kit:
These are not the part numbers for ordering though. The FR kits is probably the easiest way to get them. they come with new bolts too.
From the engineer:
<<<<Valves: All 5.2L valves were produced in Germany. Recently, they went through a manufacturing relocation change to Mexico.
FR valves will change over to the Mexican valves once we’d depleted the German valves. I’m told they are supposed to be flow neutral...
I am building my 2.0 version of 5.2XS using the new GT500 voodoo Gen 2 block. Just ordered most of the parts last month and ran into some
variations for part numbers. I get my info directly froma Ford engineer that develops the Voodoo and other engines.
The following is what I email to the...
I just emailed the engineer about several things and also asked about the intake valves for clarification. I will update when he responds with any new info.
I have yet to hear of a failed intake valve. I saw the new valves posted from FR but was unsure of any differences from production. Is Aaron/Rich certain of the 5.2 valve being made in Mexico? I assume the coyote valves are.
I thought Rich was using a 40* backcut valve? Or was that just...
GR3Z are a "low leak rate" phasers better suited for higher rev use. better for racing. They are going in my new build.
FR3Z are still the ones used in OEM engines if I understood the engineer correctly. So far these are working in my current motor but I'm hoping to get more hp higher up...
This is correct. The carpet along the rockers between the seats under the rocker under the Mustang lighted/ non-lighted sill plates.
There was also one near the clutch and throttle pedal also.
