What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[Dr. Norts]

I put in a trunk net I got off Amazon I like it!

I've had one of these for years. One of the most practical mods I've ever done.

Got around to installing the RedLine Hood Struts. Came up with a nice solution to the washer hose as well.

Just a zip tie?

I'm ready to order those, what tools are needed other than a zip-tie?

Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge and experience.

New set of Michelin ps4’s for the car. Taking of the cups 2’s to save them.

I'd be very interested in hearing your observations after the tire switch.

NVH? Steering feel?

It does feel different. They certainly don't look as good as the cup 2's. I drove straight home because they damaged one of the wheels installing the new tires on my new car which has 420 miles on it. So i was mad and upset. The tire store will be ordering a new wheel from Ford. Maybe I'll get it out in a day are so to try them out some.

Just received a mishimoto radiator the box was open on both sides. The packing looked alright, there’s bent fins. Do these matter?

If not. Whatever I will Toss it in. It’s twice the size of my current radiator it’s crazy big

IMO - I would never accept that - not after laying out money for a brand new radiator and receiving it damaged.

If it was damaged like that, there is a high possibility the core rows were tweaked. If tweaked and not visible to the naked eye, those rows were they intersect the tanks have the possibility of having cracks and will leak in the very near future.

Call Mishimoto and tell them the unit arrived damaged.

Don't spend the time installing a damage part.

Added a Holly Sniper shift light today.
Have the FP pp3 and the car goes ape anywhere over 6k... and last thing I want to do is look down. But then missing shifts sucks too. So, problem solved!

I do like that the digi dash can flash and beep. I have mine set to 6500 to start making noise and flashing because I am with you. I do not want to look down at full boogie, even on a NA 5.0.

Your a little late. Post 41114.

Actually, it's 138 deg F.

I’ve never seen someone correlate engine COOLANT TEMP to engine OIL TEMP before - and decide that because engine oil temp was “high” that the radiator needs to be replaced and that will reduce engine OIL TEMP.

What am I missing?

—-
Also to note - the factory radiators afforded to the platforms are more then adequate for daily driving, even in extreme geographic locations.

If there is a coolant problem - aside from leaks OR air pockets OR internal blockages (water passages, rad core or heater core) the thermostat is first source to check, then water pump would be next on list.

No offense at all, but if oil temps are running higher than Ford Manual temp specs (NOT green vs red on a dummy dial), then other diagnosis is needed to determine what is causing the higher oil temps and what remedies are the right choice.

Does the trick. Don’t have to worry about ruining my washer line....

Anyways, the kit will come with everything needed.

Put the rear and passenger seats back in and street wheels back on after a trip to the drag strip last night.
