Great news, so a fix for the trans and diff is finally out and wil only cost tech/base owners $650 which will include the pump , hoses, brackets, radiator, install and a full unlimited mileage warranty .

Thanks for the heads up :thumbsup:
You must be an English professor to decipher that.

Ok.. My Friends, I will repost this important message in simple English! IF you purchased a 2015 or 2016 Shelby gt 350 and the dealer ordered without the TRACK PACKAGE option ( $ 6500) There's a very strong chance your Transmission ( TREMEC -TR 3160 ) will overheat. Especially when put under Track like conditions .... I was warned of this almost three months ago from a person who most certainly knows ... and that it can freeze up ... and there is no WARRANTY. Further ? See your Dealer

If the transmission fails in the warranty timeline, and you have not modified the powertrain then it is covered under the designated powertrain warranty.

I hope that last reply is completely accurate for everyone's sake! There is small print disclaimers as to miss use and FPP parts are non warrantied I can only believe the Performance Group guys will do all possible to correct this . Their at the top of their game right now and deticated! Don't forget Edsels at the Helm... he's the nicest guy you can know

The stock Tech pack transmission is NOT a FP (Ford Performance) part. There is still a debate with the new replacement transmission with the pump offered from FP wether it comes with a warranty or not. Not sure if this is what you're referring to.

When I spoke with the Performance Group... and the Contact there openly and clearly varified what I had been made aware of 3 months prior .... He had know access as to how it will be made available $$ wise or not ! Only that he was on the project team to make coolers and they were six weeks out! I don't know what will come to be with this and I'm not affected by it . It's not my business ... I just have always done what I can for fellow Auto/ Racing Enthusiasts

The whole thing with this Turbodurbo guy sounds like one of those email sacams..... something like this?

DEAR SIR, I am Prince Kufour Otumfuo the elder son of the late King Otumfuo Opoku ware II whose demise occur following a brief illness. Before the death of my father, King Otumfuo Opoku ware II, I was authorised and officially known as the next successor and beneficiary of my father's property according to African Traditional rite
Sound familiar?

Happy birthday to you as well, and word to your mother. May your A1c tests be low and your post count exceed 7 before the end of autumn.

There are only enough tacos to feed Hank.
Steve..... I laughed my ass off at that one. I woke my wife up I was laughing so hard. Thanks for the laughs during trying times.



:D

I think it's safe to say that English is not Turbodurbo's 1st language.

That doesn't excuse dropping the same info that we discussed months ago, like it was just discovered by him.

It also seems that he doesn't even understand the info enough to accurately pass it on to us. Not understanding what has a warranty and what doesn't.

I just hope my transmission doesn't default and lock up.

Maybe we should want it too, so Ford gets us a new transmission. One with Coolers. :lol:

Are there any other members attending SEMA ? I thought if we could get a group together we could go talk to the FP gys together and maybe get some straight answers.

Ford has washed their hands of our problems.
