  1. Underhood "Ford Performance" Engine Dress Up Kit

    Just note, it's really hard getting the beauty cover off with the tower-to-tower strut brace in place (I was able to, but the top and bottom most surfaces got a little scuffed). This would then necessitate the removal of the bar for more maintenance scenarios so you don't scuff up the paint on...
  2. Underhood "Ford Performance" Engine Dress Up Kit

    I was thinking black, like the S550's. Harder to see the rubber grommets and holes too.
  3. Underhood "Ford Performance" Engine Dress Up Kit

    I'm really digging the Bullitt/Mach 1 underhood engine dress up kit. I did some comparing between our S550 and S650 and it looks like the S550 kit would/could/may fit. We removed the ugly "beauty" (not to this beholder) covers so now you can see the four mounting studs. Anyone have any...
  4. DIY: First Oil Change w/ Ramps

    He's great. I wish he'd do a video on Coyote BBQ/Typewriter Tick. It goes away only to come back after a fresh oil change. Theory out there is that some suspended carbon has a beneficial tribological effect, which we get from blow by. Too much and it's a wear agent. And that the cars from the...
  5. DIY: First Oil Change w/ Ramps

    Correct, that’s Dexos-1, Ford spec calls for ILSAC GF-6.
  6. First Oil Change at Dealer - Sloppy Job

    Also note that the 0W and 5W are different but related measurements than the -30 and -40. It’s centipoise vs. centistoke.
  7. Catch Can

    That’s why I did UPR, the tradeoff being it’s hard to maintain with the strut tower to strut tower brace. I was also looking at SPE Performance, more compact design with the price point in between UPR and Ford Performance...

    That’s where the PCV side mounts for J&L. So even though it’s on the driver’s side it’s for the passenger side valve cover. Has very long hose routing. https://www.jlosc.com/j-l-oil-separator-3-0-pcv-side-2024-2025-ford-mustang-gt-5-0/
  9. $500+ 15k Miles service - drove from TN to CA to get ripped off!

    What the heck is Premium Universal Coolant Conditioner? I imagine it's something like this:

    I did this analysis, some parts are the same some are different. https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/ford-performance-2024-mustang-oil-separator-kit-now-available.161107/page-2#post-3368586
  11. Any Whippled Mustangs have hidden trouble codes?

    I recall in one of Misha Charoudin's videos in a Dark Horse around the Nurburging Nordschleife that he was having fueling problems. He didn't report on any codes, just he could feel the lack of fuel and speculated it was g-force induced.

    As long as they have a pinch weld protector so the paint and/or sheet metal don’t get damaged. I use power pad.
  13. Catch Can

    Do you have strut tower to strut tower brace? I do, makes UPR difficult to clean.
  14. New recall: water intrusion into BCM and connectors (25C43/25V546)

    I am confused. There's two recalls: 1) water intrusion corroding BCM's affecting a lot of cars including my late 2023 '24 MY GT, and 2) LED driver control module failure affecting Mustangs (and other cars) built between March and July 2025. I thought the stop sale was for the LED driver control...
  15. Catch Cans - Do They Really Do Anything Beneficial?

    I like them for two reasons, 1) hoping to improve my octane since I drive in very hot conditions in a state where we don’t have 93, which I have to make from 91 and 100, and 2) as a diagnostic since you don’t know if you need one without having one. First downside is you don’t want it to fill...

    JLT or J&L? I have the UPR, it’s really well made but difficult to get to for maintenance. I was considering the J&L as it seems easier to maintain. FP is too overpriced for the S650.
  17. Catch Can

    Well Ford recommends them for some conditions in the owners manual. Like anything else, it’s a tradeoff. Disregard the self draining feature that’s a misprint from the GT500.
  18. Side grill insert removal. Can it be removed?

    Drivers side cover is removed for oil cooler. Passenger side has been removed for other applications, Shelby does for some of their builds.
  19. First Oil Change at Dealer - Sloppy Job

    Question is what did the dealer do (or not do) to the OP’s vehicle. Pay dealer price, expect at least factory level outcome.
  20. First Oil Change at Dealer - Sloppy Job

    Not to scare you but oil changes in the GT S650 are a little tricky. They may have removed the belly pan to get access to the oil filter. The belly pan contains over a dozen small screws and 2 each of 2 different types of push pins. One of the push pin types (attached pic) does not come out...
