    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    How much fluid is in your tranny? Try refilling it with regular dino-oil to around 3.4qts. My T3650 shifted like cr@p when filled any higher. I wish I could have kept the T45.. that tranny never gave me any problems. :(

    Clutch pedal vibrates until I press the pedal down an inch...stretched cable?

    No, to make it tighter you'll have to do it yourself. Get under the dash and hold down the plastic tab that meshes with the quadrant; while holding down that tab, push upwards on the quadrant (turning it counter-clockwise) until you hear a click. If you dislike the new setting or it doesn't...

    5w20, better gas mileage?

    I've used both grades and haven't observed and noticeable change in mileage. I'd go 5w20 if Walmart had it in the 5qtr jug (Mobil 1), but I usually run 5w30 instead. 5w20 is usually pretty hard to find too - even the Ford synthetic blend.

    It's been awhile since I posted any car pics. This one wasn't taken too long ago:

    Back From New Orleans w/Pics (56k Die)

    Nice pics. That bridge you were driving on looks LONG, and the dome is definitely a huge!

    Went to replace gt badges on the side, but, we have a paint problem...

    That exact thing happened to me when I decided to put on "281" emblems on the side of my Gt. Since I had the front end repainted, taking the GT badge off resulted in the same outline shown in your pictures (never be using that bodyshop again!). I ended up just putting the GT emblems back on...

    test drove the mach 1

    Thumbs up to you for being able to resist! I ended up trading in my 00' GT for a Mach 1.. I'm glad I did it, but at times I miss the GT (especially the cheap payments, and the fact that I almost had the car paid off :doh: ).

    Mach 1 owners... anyone ever remove the hood stripe?

    When I had my hood repainted, I drove the car for a few days without the stripe. Didn't look good IMO.

    Will a 01 Cobra Gauge cluster work in a 01 GT?

    Mity got it - PATS is stored in the cluster. If the Cobra cluster has never been installed in a vehicle before, you can program the PATS in your driveway; otherwise, if the Cobra cluster is used you'll need to have have Ford reprogram your keys for the new cluster. I had a 03 Cobra cluster in...

    Can Exhaust Get INTO Tranny/Differential..?

    Sounds like you should get one of these. :)

    Taking the air silencer off my kenne bell stang

    Think of it this way: If it is safe to put on KB's cold air intake, why wouldn't it be safe to remove your silencer? Removing the silencer and upgrading the intake plumbing both are a step towards more airflow, which is good for making the KB perform better. Yank it, and don't worry. ;)

    SAGGING EIBACHS??? GET IN HERE!

    Justice? Don't ever buy anything from them again. I had Eibach in my 5.0 and the rear sagged.. I never bought Eibach again.

    Can Exhaust Get INTO Tranny/Differential..?

    Turndown = loads of bass & lots of car alarms going off. I personally dislike the sound, but you may love it. :p

    What kind of shifter handle do you have?

    I use the stock Mach 1 ball and love it! :) *I also have a new 98 leather Cobra knob & a White MRT Ball I'll sell if anyone is interested.

    Can Exhaust Get INTO Tranny/Differential..?

    :nice: Exhaust "turn-downs" are used to point the exhaust at the ground. Exhaust that is allowed to exit with no forced direction away from the undercarriage can contribute to excess heat in the differential & fuel tank. Same issue could apply to your tranny if exhaust gases are constantly...

    how much spray can the plastic intake take?

    I'm with ya. I've never played with nitrous before, and I'm not thinking of going with a 50 or 75 shot - DRY.. just something to have fun with every so often when getting on the highway. My only concern is that I'd probably use the nitrous so seldom, that it may not be worth the hassle come...

    please dont yell at me.. need a quick response

    :stupid: 315's would probably fit, but it will be real close. Aside from that though, 315's are expensive! 255 front/285 rear is my vote.

    tired of Magnaflow; should i get Borla or Bassani?

    I hated Magnaflow too. I recommend Borla Stingers.. but if you dare try chambered mufflers with an X, MAC.
