God damn. I’m sorry, brother. I know you can’t see me, but I winced. Couple thoughts off the bat (most have been mentioned): possible causes: Phaser bolts…. Over torqued during install? Did you reuse the old ones? My money is on this. Timing chain jumped a tooth during install? Maybe, How...

Made it to Wall Drug and Corn Palace....American is an amazing country

Well, delayed response for sure. But she made out it! I'll drop a few more pictures when I get iCloud to cooperate!

Just reached out to him. As I just received my FRPP Throttle Body and should get my "hot rod" cams in the next week. I minored in Spanish while at the Academy, so I opted to dust off the spanish section of my brain and write to him at a 5th grade level. I'm sure he'll write back in perfect...

I feel silly even weighing in… but I will. I’ve got an O7 Shelby GT, low miles, talking about 20k. Always premium fuel with sea foam on an erratic but consistent basis. I’m going to change them this year… Following Ford’s process, but probably using PB blaster. The plugs are fine, it just...

Keep us updated! Super interesting post. I’m learning a ton just but lurking.

Alright team, Car is good to go! Engine oil, Tranny Fluid, Fuel Filter, Exhaust Hangers (Unneeded, but I already ordered the parts); and the sway bar bushings. Car will be getting the interior car upholstery re-glued this week as well. (The passenger side started to go). I'll post pictures...

Alright! You guys are bullies! Hahaha I appreciate everyone’s input. I did more research and I think you boys are right.... Lito is likely the way to go. I’ll be reaching out to our Venezuelan friends shortly.

I don't want to detract from @Garrett brittain 's post...But, I plan on doing little additions at a time to my car. Throttle Body one month. Cams six months later. Long headers some time next year. Each addition will require a tune. Not looking to drop $600+ over small tunes over time. Maybe...

Yikes, that's not fun. The easiest thing to do would be to reach out to Bama. I've been researching tunes a lot lately and it seems Bama is usually willing to go back and re-do their tunes if a customer reports a problem. Hopefully that's the solution, because that would be the easiest. Keep...

Close, but no cigar: https://www.carrollshelbyracing.com/store/p348/SHELBY_GT_ENGINE_CAPS.html#/ I know CSR is starting to stand up more and more stuff to sell. They acquired the license or patents to most of this stuff. They might be able to help you out!

listen man...I gave up that kinky stuff a long time ago! just kidding, but what for? In the event the cooling system starts to leak?

So the car has the Ford Racing Swap Bars and accoutrements. It was “stock” for the Shelby GT. So, I presume that’s why a couple folks didn’t recognize it. I got the bushing replacement set for about 45 bucks. I think it’ll do the trick. Just cannot believe the dissolved like that.

Ford is telling me I should get this part, it doesn’t look quite right compared to my stock part. I wonder if this is one of the Ford performance parts that was left out in lieu of the stock parts. anyone know?

holy missing rubber Batman.... Got a look into the car and realized the sway bar upper bearing bushings are shot! Will low miles, I cannot believe this just disintegrated.
