    New Coilover Option

    The components are MANUFACTURED in Taiwan, and are ASSEMBLED in Virginia. Again, this is a very "creative" company with a good marketing department which skews the statements such that the impressions are that this is a Made in USA company - but which is not. In short, it is very similar to...

    New Coilover Option

    As I said, your description of "Made in the USA" is indeed FALSE. According to the Federal Trade Commission, “Made in USA” means that “all or virtually all” the product has been made in America. That is, all significant parts, ... And yes, you are wrong about this as well... Taiwan is where...

    New Coilover Option

    Kudos for bringing another shock alternative to the Ford GT community. It's great for owners to have choices and different price points. However, your use of the term "Made in the USA" is inaccurate. These are shocks comprised of Chinese-manufactured components and which are (presumably)...

    Pulley/Tune

    Exactly. When Ford Racing came out with their pulley/tune kit for the GT, they included unique spacers that needed to be placed between the block and the power steering mount. Honestly, not easy to do. But, I suppose there's a rule somewhere within Ford regarding maintaining full travel for...

    Pulley/Tune

    Gotcha. I think an OEM idler pulley would be fine.

    Pulley/Tune

    Me thinks you guys might be over-thinking this a bit! Order a pulley/tune kit from Torrie and be done. Easy-peasy. There are HUNDREDS of Ford GT pulley/tune kits installed with no issues.

    Check the supercharger oil fluid level

    The seal on the SC snout closest to the pulley is typically the one that will start to weep. When your car is cold, run your finger along the underside of the snout from the pulley back toward the blower itself. It should be dry. Also, the intake manifold directly below the SC pulley is cast...

    New supercharger kit 05-06 Ford GT

    Good points, but I think the targeted HP is more that you are citing but can always be de-tuned. We've had more that 30 GT's on the dyno and we've had the opportunity to get baseline (stock) HP runs on the majority of those before any power adding modifications. As everyone is aware, the OEM...

    New supercharger kit 05-06 Ford GT

    I wish you great success with this, B.M.F. I think this is a much better, more modern/efficient blower for the GT as compared to previous alternatives. A nice, turn-key, legitimate 800-rwhp kit is the sweet spot I think. Enough power for the GT to be better than virtually everything else ou...

    Transaxle Cooler Kits - Available

    As I heard the story, it WAS intended to be on the cars but at the start of production they were not ready to go. The coolers were then added to the Ford Racing catalog. I assuming that most here already know that a smaller pulley and fully CARB certified tune were also available for the GT...

    Transaxle Cooler Kits - Available

    During Rally 2 in SoCal (2007?) and on a particularly hot day, a group of about 15-20 GTs made a jaunt up Hwy 2 toward Wrightwood. It was a hot day and speeds may have been a *little* high in a few places up this very windy highway. Near the crest we all stopped for lunch and as people climbed...

    Transaxle Cooler Kits - Available

    During the last 18 months or so many of you have inquired about the availability of our transaxle cooler kits. During the construction of our new home and (GT) shop, we didn't have these available but I am happy to report that we now have them back in stock. We've shipped a couple of kits off...

    Looking for cats

    It's not possible to rotate the OEM cats more than a degree or two.

    2 post lifts--advice

    No. My concern with 2 is having them in the way (minor annoyance) but it is VERY rare when I would like to all four tires in the air at the same time. For wheel/suspension/brake work it is one axle at a time. I DO have a static plate bridge which I don't even typically have on the lift. On...

    2 post lifts--advice

    I bought my first lift in 2006 and debated long and hard between a 2-post and 4-post. I went with a 4-post (BendPak) with a rolling jack bridge and after ~18 years of use, I have no regrets. It is SO dang easy to drive on and off the lift with virtually ANY car/height. (Yes, long ago I...
