@dusman59 ...... exactly - back in the day when we built engines everyone let their engines cool between races which were, of course, scheduled to allow that. Some guys used big fans to help cool their engines I even saw some guys with mini ACs and burlap bags that had dry ice in them to cool...
@Topic ..... the Full Synthetic should help a lot. A super lubricant with great VI packages that shed heat. If doesn't help then there are plenty of aux. cooler options that aren't too expensive. Good luck!
@Topic ...... First, if you planned to "pull" a lot you should have put FULL synthetic in your engine. Full synthetic will have a better VI (viscosity improvement) package that will build long chain polymers faster and in a more robust state than even a good semi-synthetic - which is likely...
@GWink ..... my 2024 GT Convertible was build in September 2023. It has no lugging issues on hills at all. Different programming? Different adaptive logarithm? Don't know, but it goes like stink even uphill.
@Cruisesader302 ..... AWESOME. AWESOME post! Loved it!!!!! I will print your cool pics for my Mustang and Corvette buddies, we'll look at your pics and laugh at them over a few beers. No doubt those pics will be pinned to a few garage bulletin boards --- certainly in Corvette garages! My best...
@JimC.....and as we all know running an engine lean is absolutely disastrous, as running lean causes to the engine run hotter and risk catastrophic failure. That is why such care is taken with high performance engines to ensure steady, adequate fuel delivery.
@azo0ozi ..... I hope they didn't just add water they should have added a mixture of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. Check several times yourself on a flat surface. BTW Great advice from @Zig
@kagemusha2662 ..... and according to several side-by-side comparisons you'd be wrong on a number of aspects. BTW - IMO the Camaro dash is the effin' ugliest piece of crud I've ever seen on a vehicle ..... zero ascetics ...... just weird and ugly. BTW ll the trunk on a Camaro convertible is...
@Germansheperd ..... thank you for the side-by-side picture. It 100% confirms why I bought the Mustang and money had nothing to do with it. I want a real muscle car, aka a pony car not something that looks like a misplaced child's transformer toy. I never look at late model vettes that I see...
In an incredible display of the power of AI for good or bad a group of researchers challenged an AI system to program compounds/chemicals to fight known diseases. It produced an array of amazing new potential treatments with incredible speed. Then one of the team wondered if the program could be...
@Q6543 ...... AI is this millennia's discovery of Fire. A total human/societal shift in existence. Now we will have AGI. Look at Abilene Texas at the massive 1GIG farm there. Canada has a 4 GIG AI farm planned to run on nat. gas and nuclear power.......this will separate nations and societies...
We ran various air filtration systems on dyno for fun. None of them showed statistically significant performance increases - BUT - once any of them got a bit dirty they quickly fell below factory filter performance specs. We opined that the "oiled-type" air filter elements actually attracted and...
@kinelisch ..... IF your oil was originally at the proper level and IF you aren't beating the crap out of your engine then NO it's NOT normal to burn, what - almost a pint of oil in that space of time. I have had three Mustangs and none of them burned oil. My 2024 GT burns nothing at all - as it...
The holes were an error - made obvious by the fact Ford fixed them. The JB Weld is not messy if you have any skill at all and completely seals-off the area eliminating water, salt, dirt etc. from getting all down the interior frame and belly pans causing serious damage. Unlikely Ford will issue...
@MarkS650GT10 ...... you already have the best car in this classification. Camaro is a definite downgrade from the 650GT. BTW you swear again on this forum (mentioning a crappy GM product) and you will owe everyone a beer!
@MORIDER ..... several years of discussion on this topic across multiple forums. I used the DIYvan.com patches. They are super easy to install, virtually invisible after a couple of weeks driving and do not interfere with the removal of the fender liners. Ford has now recognized this flaw and is...
