  1. UPR Billet Oil Drain Plug - Thoughts?

    The driver side crankcase vent is open to the atmosphere via the intake duct. Would need to be plugged.
  2. UPR Billet Oil Drain Plug - Thoughts?

    I made this post last December: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/ronin-oil-drain-plug.118401/post-3893186 The basic message is "don't use anything other than the OEM plug on a Voodoo"
  3. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    Relax! If it sits there like that for 20 years it'll be worth millions...
  4. Any reason why the GT500 differential cooler components wouldn't work with a 350?

    If you do a Google search on FR3V-4C159-AC it comes up as a part for the GT350R. Note that the first four characters in the part number - "FR3V" - designate it as an FP part from the 2015 model year. It might be used in the GT500 but it didn't start there.
  5. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    The factory parts have an "Engineering Part Number" on them. The dealer parts department parts are sourced through a different supply chain and come with different part numbers that look similar but that aren't the same even when the parts are exactly the same.
  6. Should I Buy It?

    That it's GT in GT350 clothing
  7. Should I Buy It?

    The lower side stripes and red valve covers are definitely not OEM GT350. Does it have an "engine built by" sticker on the passenger's side valve cover? It might be worth putting the VIN into a VIN Decoder: https://www.fordpro.com/en-us/fleet-vehicles/vin-decoder-and-guides/ Just to see...
  8. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    Yes, if the LCA connects to the knuckle behind the centerline of the strut, then it'll rotate the knuckle toward toe-in if it's too long. I'd be inclined to shorten the LCA a bit to straighten out the wheel. The steering tie rod is at the length that works for the OEM parts, so leave it...
  9. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    It sounds like your matching the arm lengths was off by a very small amount, but in the confined quarters where the geometry it set, an error of 1 mm can change things a lot. At this point, have you measured the toe-in? It's not hard - requires a measuring tape, a couple of jack stands, some...
  10. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    The steering tie rod is in front of the center of the axle, so you want to turn it so the front of the tire is pushed out to reduce toe-in/increase toe-out. Looking toward the inside face of the wheel from under the car (on either side), looking along the tie rod toward the rod-end, hold the...
  11. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    Here's an idea of how you could do your own: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/track-alignment-setting.162531/post-3484610 As @galaxy said, once you've done your own, going to a shop loses a lot of its luster. The setup in @Tomster's post probably costs less than an shop alignment...
  12. GT350 Carbon Ceramic Brakes - 2022 Update

    Good point on the weight - I run the heavy 30# OEM GT350 rims and I've got about the same, maybe a bit less, unsprung weight on the front than I'd have with factory brakes and GT350R CF rims. The rear is lighter too but about 7# heavier than rear CF rims would be. When I first ran the CCB's...
  13. GT350 Carbon Ceramic Brakes - 2022 Update

    Your use case is within the capability of the factory brakes with maybe a pad upgrade. That said, if you want great braking combined with almost permanently clean wheels, CCB's are for you. I haven't scrubbed a wheel with soap and water in the last three years, including track days. CCB brake...
  14. Misfiring on 3 cylinders

    Has it had a crank relearn?
  15. SPL adjustable LCA and tension rod install

    Whose spec is the 160 - 180 ft lbs torque? The factory torque for both of the outer control arm nuts is 76 ft lbs if you've got an SVT vehicle.
  16. 2020 GT350R Heritage Build Thread (Heavy Build)

    When I wrote this in this thread a few days back: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/2020-gt350r-heritage-build-thread-heavy-build.152939/post-3940056 I was describing exactly that solution. It's been around since 2016. I helped someone do this change a few years back and spec'd the...
  17. Alignment recommendations in the GT350 supplement

    It's a bit of a hybrid. Front is -2.2 degrees negative camber, zero toe (the average of the 2019 R and the 2020 R front setup). Rear is -1.75 degrees camber, 0.3 degrees toe in. I couldn't quite get -1.60 degrees of camber as called for in the R specs for both years in the back so I settled...
  18. Alignment recommendations in the GT350 supplement

    A couple of thoughts on the issue. First, the more aggressive front camber settings came when the GT350 started having adjustable factory camber plates in 2019. Until then, front camber recommendations were limited to what you could squeeze out of the non-adjustable factory setup. As for how...
  19. 2020 GT350R Heritage Build Thread (Heavy Build)

    Magride deletes solve a problem you can sidestep quite easily if you leave the ride height sensors in place and wired. You just plug resistors into the plugs for the struts and dampers. The VDM gets all the sensor data it needs and it thinks the shocks are still there and all is well. If you...
  20. Looked at a 2016 GT350 today! Buying advice?

    My 2016 GT350, which has 30,000 miles on its original engine, has done 44 track days since I bought it new in 2016.
