    V6 goes 11's!

    Seriously, I doubt a head gasket change would change the "performance" of a motor in any way as it would not increase hp or torque. But as I was saying if you put on the "locking" type of gaskets which then would prevent the heads from blowing it could possibly still be considered stock...

    V6 goes 11's!

    "changing headgaskets can change performance, as to where i doubt valve cover gaskets can" I guess if you install the valve cover gaskets wrong and they leak oil all underneath and then you don't get traction off the line WOULD change performance :rlaugh:

    procharged 05 V6 article in 5.0 mag

    The article does go on to say that "we have no doubt the V-6 Mustang with ProCharger's blower will easily cover the quarter-mile in 13.5 seconds at 101-102 mph, provided weather conditions are better thant the heat card we were dealt, and certainly if the car is equipped with a free-flowing dual...

    V6 goes 11's!

    Stock longblock in some views could be stock internals but more heavy duty head gaskets. I guess if the heads were machined in any way that might not equate to stock. But by adding say a heavy-duty waterpump where a standard-duty waterpump was in my book would still equate to a stock longblock...

    V6 goes 11's!

    Hey Mike, you said those numbers were with a "stock" longblock, does that also mean that the heads are as they came from the factory? The reason why I am asking is that I believe I read on your website that it was stated that one of the weak points on this engine was the heads when applying...

    procharged 05 V6 article in 5.0 mag

    Yeah, I read the article too. I liked the rwhp numbers, but was disappointed in the end time slip. I think they said something about they probably could get those end times down quite a bit though, but don't know what the variables were.

    Engine Break-in Period = No Road Trip?

    Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it too much. The dealer brought my car to me here in the Detroit, MI area from Cincinnati, OH before I even seen her and I have about 2500 miles on her now with no problems so I guess what Chldsplay says would be true, as long as you vary your speeds somewhat and...

    14s at last

    Ditto on the 6, with that 60' time and the end mph it does look like you have some room to get the ET lower. Good Job Fazm83!

    V6 goes 11's!

    Very Cool Pwrhws!!! The bar has been raised yet again! Runnin the 4.0L in the 11's is sure to make ripples across this board! Milan is a pretty cool track to run on too eh? I have been there a few times myself. I thought you were doing your testing and tuning in another state than Michigan...

    Im fighting a mighty war...

    @Twofocused re: "Im not sure what is more ghetto, having one muffler on a GT bumper, or hanging the left muffler so it looks like I have duals." I would definitely say that hanging on the left muffler (if it is not functional) to look like you have duals is DEFINITELY ghetto. In my book...

Has anybody else tried this or has any other info...

    What happened to MSP?

    I don't mean to start anything, but from what I recall MSP was banned from Stangnet after an incident that included Blackstang (I think that was the name) and shortly thereafter he was not heard from again. You might want to ask Jenn as I believe she would have the answer to that. Again, I am...

    shifters

    The concept on a short shifter versus a longer shifter is like this: If you take a yard stick and put it on the floor and move it from point "A" to point "B" which is six inches when you do the same thing with a 12-inch ruler it takes a lot shorter time to move the same six inches. I know...

    shifters

    I think I am going to wait until someone comes out with a real nice shifter instead of the "economy" one, especially from what I understand of how these are a pain to put in as I don't want to put something in and then regret it a little later down the line when a nice 'hurst' or 'B&M' short...

    Winter Tires and Rustproofing

    Here are the tires I am going to be putting on they are 225/55/16. The Dunlops are new and the Firestone Winterforce are used (with very little mileage on them) and I got the whole set for under $200. They fit on my stock rims and I hope they treat me right. I know they will be loud like a...

    Just Tootin my Manual V6 Horn

    I just picked up this real cool book at Borders entitled "Mustang A New Breed of Pony Car 2005" and in it Thai-Tang (the new Mustang Chief Engineer) says "a real "sleeper" in the Mustang line will be the V-6 equipped with the five-speed manual. The V-6 manual is also a really nice package as...
