Not mine to defend but there was word elsewhere that Shelby wanted their royalty fee bumped higher and Ford said not gonna happen. There is legitimate friction now between the two camps. Ford saying things like "Shelby doesn't race" as partial justification for going in a different direction is...
And there you go. These are the age old statements that have been brought back from the dead.
If you want a manual for parades, burnouts, cars and coffee, Ford sells one behind a five liter. Until you've owned a Predator powered car with a DCT and tracked it you'll struggle with this car's...
The car is really directed towards tracking it and the DCT makes perfect sense in that regard. Equipping it with Cup2 R's makes it pretty clear. Good tire for the track, horrible tire for the street. The "but I want a manual!" got old quick 6 years ago and even quicker today. Especially from the...
Using the Shelby GT500 (sorry Farley) wing on the S650 DH SC required not only a new upright but a new dog bone as well. A good friend that does CF uprights got them to open the trunk to allow a peek...
The original dog bones were developed for the GT350 R wing, then used on the Multimatic GT4...
So less than invoice? Sounds like a trade was involved.
Regarding nomenclature....I really don't care, I just want to see quality hardware and innovative engineering.
I watched the video with Stangguy and Farley and I have to say...Farley came across as quite the asshole. Him disregarding...
Removal would be rather easy and then plugging the flange at the manifold followed with tuning. Anyone doing long tubes will end up tuning and shitcanning the pump system as well.
I wanted to add a little more context to the changes we see (or will see) on this engine versus the engine when it was in the GT500. Here's an extra set of GT500 exhaust manifolds I have. Very similar to what came on the GT350 as well. Note the flange, you see the exhaust ports along with the...
They are electric air pumps.
The '20-'22 GT500 didn't need them but more stringent emissions requirements led to their use on the GTD engine first. Lower left corner in the following photo of a GTD, they at least got plastic covers over them.
They are used at start up to help the cats light...
