That’s good idea! The dealer said they are expecting the springs in from FP September 3. If that fails I’ll come back to you both. Thanks for the good idea.

I’ll try there thanks.

That’s a long wait. Hopefully they are available before winter.

Thank you

Hi does anyone have the FP M-5300-W lowering springs for sale? Seems like they’re 8 weeks from being available anywhere. Thank you.

Will do. Thankfully it can just be the OEM spec.

Great that’s good to know that no additional parts are required and no special alignment is required. Thank you.

Hi all, I have a stock 2017 GT 350 and have an opportunity to get a cheap set of FP lowering springs. I don't track the car, it's a daily and I realize it's necessary to be mindful of scraping. Totally just doing it for wheel gap. I'm sure this was discussed heavily in the day but is there...

Not so sure about that. The few Ford engineers I’ve met a few years said they weren’t necessary and no evidence they possessed through testing convinced them they were beneficial. I believe they were engine guys if I remember correctly. I note that they are on the 500 and I found that 2019...

I notice that Ford didn’t mention in the 2017 owners supplement anything about Track Apps and using a catch can on track days. This section is in the 2019 manual. Are they saying that you should not be using a catch can pre 2019? Are they saying that you should not use a catch can on the...

750 but I sold it to get a 350

Thank you for the advice.

What would high revs be? I’ve probably had it over 6k a couple of times shifting but no dumps from a dig or burnouts.

Thank you. That seems to be the consensus for aftermarket clutch’s I’ve see as well. I double checked with the Ford tech I know fairly well and he checked their data and found no such similar warnings.

Thanks everyone.

Just had the clutch installed and can’t find anything in the manual specific to the break-in procedure. The Ford transmissions tech said just drive it normally and that there wasn’t any instruction regarding varying speeds, low rev shifting etc. He mentioned that new materials make it so you...

Long run yes. Right now they sell for more on autotrader.

For one reason if the gen 1 was replaced with gen 2 the value of the pre-2019 are higher. Can’t imagine a numbers matching car would matter this few number of years since the end of production…maybe different for the more limited run of R cars.

Good to know. My replacement was built dec 21 or Jan 22 (can’t remember)decoded from the engine plate so hopefully I’m done with replacements. I did note they didn’t change the original builder’s names on the engine when itwas replaced. They just used the 2017 stamped plate that was on the...

Is it true that you can no longer get a Gen 2 replacement long block from Ford? My understanding from the dealer is that they aren’t manufacturing these any longer so they just rebuild the failed Gen 1 or 2 engines. Seems wrong since the last model year was only 2020.
