Thatās because one turbo sits farther back than the other under that cover by about an inch and a half. I imagine they tried with longer tubing to make it look even, but probably found there is some power losses due to it.
That tube you're referring to is actually the pressurized air tube coming out of the turbos and going into the water/air intercoolers before going down below to the intake manifold, which is on the outside of the engine vee. I doubt that extra half inch makes any performance difference at that point.
Its not the length of the tube, its the pressure of the manifold?
No clue, but I'm not the engineer that designed the engine. I do appreciate the 600+ hp though and don't notice if there is an issue with the length of the stock charge pipes.
I went this route and also removed and painted the overflow bottle flat black. Result the bottle looks awesome.
We do get problems from time to time with these engines where the fault is essentially a bank to bank charging balance issue. That can be very difficult to diagnose, as they have a separate ECU / PCM for each bank.
Looks like you got it but it was season 7 episode 1 āEasy Does Itā. I couldnāt believe they put a new custom built full frame under the car then used the stock engine cover but they sure did.Any idea of what season/episode that was?
Edit: found a still shot....
Compare that to this beautiful installation (Gen2 Coyote... so yeah...)
I agree. Iāve always been a GM man up until this Mustang, and as you know there have been countless small blocks put in Fords over the years. Nobody ever questioned it. But given what the Coyote is and can do that would have just been wrong here.
I'm a former GM guy as well. Many cars and trucks, including an original LS1 F-body. I'm not really onboard w/ putting an 350 SBC into a Ford, either. The cost savings over a 351W is miniscule, if *any at all*... Not sure where the argument came from, but a 351W and the Chevy 350 have basically identical power potential based on how they're built, and I just don't believe the hype about a 350 being that much cheaper.
Thanks! I used VHT High Temp Plastic paint and a Duplicolor high temp clear.
To be fair i am a bit distracted by the yellow dealership protectors on it... xD Or does he keep the window sticker on too? Or just unwilling to read the owners manual?
