I call
Everyone know's LS1's run low-12's right off the showroom floor and 10's when you breathe on them. No way one ran-13's!
Oh I hear ya. I was being sarcastic. I've seen 10x's as many of them run mid/high-13's and 14's as I have run-12's.
Ha yea, I picked up on your sarcasm. I'm right there with ya.
Not to turn this into a LS-hate thread. It's a fantastic motor... Just not exactly touched by the hand of God.
I dont think he was insulting just saying cars are getting faster. Used to be guys were excited about running 14s and now they are shooting for 12s. Always feels good to get a new best slip. Just wait till you get a 10 something slip! Keep it up man.Nice! 12's are the new 14's
aint that the truth! we were happy as hell when we cracked into the 4 sec range! then when i saw 7.73 after coasting i was thinking he shouldnt have lifted!I dont think he was insulting just saying cars are getting faster.

If i could just figure out whats up with the cooling in mine i could do that. But it gets hot while on the freeway with the fan on forget traffic and a/c is long gone.Ultimately my goal for this car would be to drive it to work Wednesday morning in the middle of July, A/C blasting, then after work drive it to the track, about an hour away, click off a few 10 second passes at the test-and-tune, then drive it back home, maybe pick up a gallon of milk at the grocery store on the way. Daily driver reliability and comfort while putting down enough power to run tens… I’d be pretty satisfied with that.

nope that was the clevor
LOL, no the Coyote is just Ford finally getting off their asses and making an engine worth owning again.
No, this is God trying to figure out how he screwed the pooch on that number 8 cylinder.
Since I just found this thread:
Little update- after taking it to the track, the transmission developed a slight gear whine, so I drained the fluid over the weekend... And I had glitter.
So I think I'm just going to street drive the car for the rest of the season, then when winter comes and it goes into hibernation, I'll yank the trans and diagnose it. Don't think I want to risk another trip to the track, unless I have a tow truck lined up.
