    Power Steering hose

    Well that was tricky. Had to loosen the support ring thats bolted near the oil canister so to slide the old line out and new one in. My new line was also about 3/4" too long v's the OEM dogleg.....the rest looked very similar. The dogleg with the uncut length was crashing right in the bottom of...

    Art 138. You're lucky to have the T-31 pliers shown above. It superseded the T-25 (circa 1966) that would not been able to execute the superior moves that you obviously pulled off with the post 66 model on your GT.......hat tip Another must have tool in the GT garage.

    Power Steering hose

    Just reading through an old post that the new hose might need to be aligned at each end for "no touch" clearance + make sure its routed the same as OE path. Any other tips?

    Ford GT goes 310mph

    What are the specs on that incredible rockets engine/rpms & drive train changes Wonder how smooth a runway has to be to do 300mph (with one hand on the wheel at 300mph) That parachute haul down is amazing.

    I bought some Allen wrench round heads with etched edges but they were not actually physically big enough to grab and twist I might investigate your idea but I’m not sure if you think it’s worth doing I can’t tell by your last post

    Checked the oil belt tension setting.... it was very close but I made it sight up a bit better. Also added some race tape to the heads for waaaay easier finger spinning in/out. The cover is a poor design when used on the GT.... just a parts carry over I guess. What would be ideal would be a...

    No squeal.... I followed the manual on the oil pump belt loosening and removal. Was tricky to get the belt off over the tensioner and back on.
