Thanks for posting the pics. I plan on doing this to my Mustang once it comes in. I may even tape the holes at the dealership before I drive away. So did you have to remove the belly pans or side skirts (or whatever they are called) to remove the few pebbles you mentioned finding in there before...
Ok that's fair. How long in your estimation does it ake for the rings to be seated? I mean if I pick my car up and drive it 30 miles on the highway hopefully that's not an issue? I can vary speeds and RPM's while doing so.
My GT is due in at the dealer any day now. I only had a very short, slow test drive of the GT before ordering it do to the weather and roads being not ideal that day. I did test drive two different EB's before the GT. I do plan to take my GT for a much further test drive when it comes in and...
That's an interesting observation. I do plan on using 93 but maybe using 87 needs some investigation on my part. I know I've asked that very question on this forum and the vast majority say to use premium for better performance,etc.
Your one of the few I"ve seen who are using regular 87 Octane. I believe most here are running Premium (91 or 93). Just curious if you've ever run Premium and if you have did you notice any difference in mileage or power?
Well that is concerning at I'm the same height as you. Honestly I don't remember not being able to see out the rear window fully during my test drives but maybe I wasn't pay much attention, lol. I will for sure have to check this out further as my car is due in any day now:)

Not sure if those are the shipping spacers or not but I'm curious about the rust proofing you had done. Did the dealership do it? What brand or method was used?
Not sure how I missed the post with your pics but thanks for pointing it out. Sounds like the install isn't too bad. It does look like they have a deluxe or heavier duty one's coming out this month but not sure if those are really needed. So your pretty happy with the quality of them overall...
Wondering if you got the ZL1 splash guards installed? If so any pics and how do you like them? I'm looking for some splash guards as well. I've seen a few others mention these as well:

Again congrats on getting the car. Did you clean out the stones/sand that you heard banging around in there before doing the 'fix?' If so did you remove the covers to get everything cleaned out? Someone else had mentioned that in order to remove the covers you need to either have the car on...
You mention not cruising on the highway at a low RPM? Surely you can take a little trip on the highway in your new Mustang without harm I would assume?
I would likely assume that when we pick up our new S650 GT that's it filled with 87 octane from the dealership correct? I would be surprised if they filled it with 91 or 93.
Awesome on finally getting your GT. Did you notice any issues with the car itself (stone chips, panel gaps, interior rattles, etc)? I plan on bringing my big laundry list to go over before I sign on the dotted line.
I've been having issues with Experian today trying to manage my credit freeze...
Just curious if anyone here has a S650 that doesn't have any annoying interior rattles? I've read a lot of users complain about interior rattles in various threads around here. I know this isn't a luxury car but when your spending $50K+ on a car it would be nice to not have any rattles (at least...
I was under the assumption that one could cover the holes with tape without the car being put up on a lift? I'm pretty sure others have taped the holes at their dealership in the parking lot as a temporary fix (this is my plan as my car is coming in any day now).
Curious as to what tape and...
Thanks for the info and congrats on your Mustang making it to the dealership. Did you get a chance to see it in the flesh yet? Make sure you give it a good going over and don't forget your duct tape :)
