I really like the Conti ECS2's! They grip super well in the dry and the rain! I have them on the stock HP rims, so my fronts are 305/30R19 and my rears are 325/30R19. I'm on my second set!

Nice! Always loved the look of those wheels! After I got the Cup2's removed, but before I got my alignment, I pulled the struts down and removed the factory set screws from the strut top mounts (so they could be adjusted) and made sure they were completely outboard. That way the camber would be...

Yep! Can confirm the Cup2's wear down fast! I drove my Mach 1 on the stock Cup2's from Louisiana to North Carolina for the track attack, then went drive the Tail of the Dragon, and then drove back to Louisiana. I checked my front tires when I got back and the steel belts were showing. I think I...

Absolutely! Happy to help! :like: We're all car guys on here - it's not odd at all! Heck, I'd do the same thing if I were trying to see how they look! Huh, I never even noticed the Conti sidewalls were different! Interesting! Let me know if you have any more questions/need more pictures!

Hey! I'm so sorry, I read your reply to the post a while back and meant to post pictures and never did! I just took some pictures of the rears today for you.

I have the pops/burbles on my manual Mach 1. I can make them happen fairly consistently and have taken note of when they occur for me. One condition I've found that's important across all events is the ambient temp. If it's anything below 60 degrees fahrenheit (roughly), the car won't...

I put the Steeda H-Pipe on my Mach 1 and I like the sound of it. It's not too loud that you can hear it coming from 2 miles away, but it's not nearly as quiet as the stock resonator. One thing that you can possibly check (if you haven't already) is to make sure your active exhaust is...

Stock HP 6M here too. Can confirm that the top of 5th is roughly 150mph (I might've hit 153mph - it's been a while). I've also ran 6th gear up to 140mph and it still had more left to it. Albeit 6th is extremely long so you're not gonna get up there fast, but it can do it (if you have enough...

Sorry to hear about what happened to your car! That's highly disappointing. Non-car people just don't understand that these cars mean more to us than your everyday "grocery getter". Some people also weren't raised to respect other people's property and thus refuse to keep their hands to...

I actually did some extremely rudimentary calculations as far as the gurney flap downforce goes a while back! Using the data off of the 2019 GT350, at 120mph the rear of the car gets 238lbs of downforce with the gurney flap mounted. I did some calculations using that data and figured out the...

Sweet! Glad they're able to take a look at it! Definitely let us know what you hear next Thursday, please! Yes I agree, the trans in the Track Attack Mach 1 I drove was insanely smooth and easy. However, I will say those transmissions are put through way more heat cycles and hardcore use than...

I enjoy it a lot! I personally like a shorter shifter, and this one definitely shortens it over stock quite a bit. It gives it a more "stout" and "direct" feeling. I'm also not the biggest fan of the "reverse collar" that the stock shifter has, and this removes it, so even better! The...

Very good information! Thank you for that! For the "tactile barrier", mine still has it after 26k miles. Although, now that I think about it, when the car is off and I try to shift through the gears, I can still feel it. Sometimes I'll go to get into 3rd and it won't go in. I'll have to pull...

Yeah, that's a response for warranty purposes (which is understandable). So, I'm glad you brought this up! I've done some digging into the numbers for transmission fluids in the past and the Tremec HP MTF fluid is WAY different than Ford spec, or even Redline D4 for that matter. Fluid VcS @...

Do you have the MGW? If not, that might explain why you can't hear it. I will also admit, I only hear it when I would hard shift into 5th under normal driving conditions (I don't do that anymore - I'm changing my shifting technique as we speak). I can definitely feel it in the shifter however...

Sure! AZ_Ryan definitely gave a good explanation. To elaborate even more on that, I can describe what I mean by "bite". It's the feeling of, what I assume to be the synchro and the gear, teeth meshing together. Not in the sense that it's grinding, but just a quick 1/4 second jolt you feel...

So this is a topic that crosses my mind every time I drive mine. I'll preface my notes by saying I have an MGW shifter & Motul ATF VI fluid in it right now. Otherwise, everything else is stock. Here's some notes on my experience with my TR-3160 (I have about 26000 miles on my car): 5th gear...

While I don't have any experience with pulling the trans, I've closely followed other threads of people doing it to observe the process. From what I've read, mating the bellhousing to the block is an incredibly delicate balancing act and everything has to be perfect. Here's a thread of someone...

Funny enough, I found the exact same plug sitting on top of my driver's side motor mount...or kinda near the bottom of the strut tower a few weekends ago! Not 100% sure what it goes to. I haven't done anything to that side of the car beyond the Steeda Stainless clutch line, Steeda upgraded...

I enjoy diagnosing my own issues as well. I'm always on the hunt for different diagnostic tools and manuals! For OBDII-related things, here's the list of things I have used: OBDLink MX+, their free app called "OBDLink", the ForScan Android app, and the motorcraft website for all detailed...
