    what else do i need with my accufab tb/plenum

    Get some VT stage II cams and 4.10 gears installed. You'll get close to 300 rwhp and tq. Friend of mine put cams in his and it pulls like a freight train. Hard and will put in close to 12's at the strip.

    2004 GT 40th ann. Needs Power

    Most 2004 GT's seem to dyno 223-228 SAE on Dynojet. To get close to 300, you would need cams, exhaust, intake. To get fast without spending a ton. 1) gears 4.10's. 2) Predator tune. 3) JLT RAI for GT. http://www.jlttruecoldair.com/

    I need lots more power

    Started going to the track this year. Found out some things. 1) People are real friendly. Must be the common interest. 2) It's a family sport now days. Junior Dragsters is fun to watch. 3) Meet all age ranges. I fit in with the old farts. 4) Man, people that drag race are do it...

    I need lots more power

    If you go to the strip, you'll redline 4th just before the traps with 4.10's. That's really why you need the 3.73's. Once you have the KB installed, you can either upgrade to the intercooled someday or just put in some cams like VT's blower cams. The right cam's make a huge gain in a...

    Timing Advance with predator

    Yep, doesn't run hardly at all anymore. Actually, the car run better now. NAPA carries them. You'll need a new o-ring with the stat.

    Every shop says 3.73's over 4.10's

    If I was going to stay n/a, I'd consider 4.10's., but going to put a KB on this winter, so it's 3.73's. Even if I wasn't putting a SC on, I might go with 3.73's. Since I drive a lot on the freeway in rush hour traffic, I don't want to be shifting anymore then I do now.

    Timing Advance with predator

    Don't know. Would love to see Diablo document the base settings for each revision. I came away from the dyno with these for settings. Timing 2-4 Range -5.0 Timing 4-7 Range -5.0 Fuel 2-4 Range -5.0 Fuel 4-7 Range -3.0 Also, changed to 180 degree thermostat. Since I couldn't...

    Every shop says 3.73's over 4.10's

    5700 with 4:10 = 106 (T3650) 6000 with 4:10 = 111 (T3650) You don't want to drop into 5th with a T3650 at the strip with a SC and 4:10's. 3:73's with a SC with give you low 12's at 116.

    1/4 Times for an '04 40th Anniversary GT?????

    stock the 04 gt is 223-228 sae rwhp on a dynojet. Mid 14's stock with average driver. To work your way to the 12's, here's a good link. http://forums.modulardepot.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1877 If I had to do it over again, I would go immediately to SC or CAM's and skip the bolt-on's.

    I need lots more power

    Just get a KB 6 PSI kit and don't worry about your bottom end. Not enough to hurt it. http://www.kennebell.net/superchargers/ford/gt96-03_2v/gt96-03_2.htm

    Help me understand a custom tune

    Take it to a well regarded performance shop in your area. 375 or so is cheap for the expertise and it's verified on a dyno.

    supercharged 2k gt

    Not only would it be safe and put out more power by getting a tune, but driveability would be great. No bucking, stalling, idle problems, etc. At that a/f under power, won't be long for a piston to go BANG. :( Must cheaper to get a tune then replace parts.

    180 Degree Thermostat W/ Predator?

    I did. Picked it up at NAPA. Now the fan doesn't run most of the time when running the Predator tune.

    Too many mods... Not enough results?

    Certainly not an expert here, but reviewed my dyno charts and also Kenne Bells N/A charts before supercharging for the 2v. Slight variations depending on the tune, but for my car. Typical Peak TQ is 280-290 @ 4100-4200. Down to 210-215 at 5700. Typical Peak HP is 242-247 @ 4900-5000. Down...

    2004 FORD MUSTANG MACH 1 CONVERTIBLE <<MY PROJECT CAR>>

    35k for a GT convert? Man, you can buy those for a 22k here along with a used Mach I for 22k and have 8k to swap parts. Your going to need to swap a lot of parts, so might as well have both cars side by side and just take parts off the GT and swap the parts from Mach right in. This would...

    Too many mods... Not enough results?

    Your 14.5 @ 95 suggests rwhp around 220 or so. http://www.modulardepot.com/hpc.php The hp curve on the 4.6 2v drops pretty fast after 5500. If your shifting at redline or above, your losing time. Try shifting at 5500 for your N/A run.

    problem after chaning oil and dipstick question

    All 4.6's that I know about take 6 qts. Put in the 6th quart and see what it reads. I'll check my dipstick number later.

    Good question about Predator

    Feeling the hate here. Yeow. Let me say this all. 1) I agree that the Predator has value other then HP. One reason I got it. 2) This is from Diablo "The Predator was created with one thing in mind, POWER! Average power gains are in the 15-20 RWHP range. The Predators additional...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Put a steeda or Pro 5.0 shifter in, then change to Amsoil ATF. When you shift, just push the shifter forward without guiding it for the 2nd to 3rd. Just my opinion, but I think the Mobil 1 synthetic ATF is so slippery it doesn't let the syncro match speeds.
