In reality, not very often. I changed mine after 15 years and 20,000 miles. They seemed fine. However, if the front of engine is being worked on and the cabin access hole is open, change all three. Most engines run over 100,000 miles with the original belts.

Canisters are fairly generic. Someone should be able to adapt one over. Good luck. Keep us posted on results.

Why do we do that?

This is from one of my posts a few years ago. Maybe it will be helpful. - The oil pump belt cover is held with the same style screws used extensively throughout the car. These cover screws are a PIA to remove and install. I had to remove some through the cabin engine cover and some from the...

They are recessed. https://www.fordgtparts.com/maintenance/oem-ford-gt-oil-pump-belt-cover/

It was easier because your selection of sockets is much better to match up to the limited space. I seem to remember using a 1/4 inch socket to turn the screws. The socket also instantly fits onto the hex head.

I replaced mine with hex head bolts. Far, far easier. Much, much easier. Oh and by far, much easier.

This might help. You can see the part number trend. The 10 means 10 rib, 6 means 6 rib. The last four numbers are inches 0884 = 88.4. 4G7Z-8620-AA Belt, Supercharger 48.00 4G7Z-8620-AA Belt, Supercharger Dayco 5100883, AC Delco Heavy Duty K100884HD 4G7Z-8620-AA Belt, Supercharger...

Based on your test, sounds like belt slippage squeal. A couple of things can cause that. The belt V ribs wear out causing it to slip. Or, the belt tensioner is near it's end of adjustment range. Or, an old hard belt. Or, possibly a combination of all three. All are cured with a new belt as...

BS, that is the next step.

I have a pretty long list of common parts that I have developed since I have been on the forum. Not as long as some others, I am sure. I would list it here, but I don't know where??? I have seen excel spreadsheets on other forums. It could be available for anyone to access and update. Only...

Yeah - the EGR valve seems like it should have been an off the shelf already designed for some other car type of part.

Pete - I know you know this. A dyno measures torque and RPM and then calculates HP.

The largest and most used performance gain is in bragging rights.

So true. No matter which way you do it.

I did mine by-my-self with the clamshell on. I placed double harbor freight moving blankets on everything. I carefully considered removing the clamshell. Two issues, takes at least two people. And having anything stored on the floor risks damage. If i was to have a second person over to...

If you are vacillating back and forth, it is not worth the money or hassle to change out. If you really thought it looked great w/o then go for it.

The canister shows to be readily available from Ford Parts or discount suppliers on line. You posted an incorrect part number. The correct number is: 4G7Z-9D653-CA.

I don't have a NGT just a GT. So, I have no driving need to see StormCat or Derry's nuts on display for all to see. Although, if they do display them, I will look, just to see what they look like. BTW, my nuts work fine.

Also Kendall Pond @nota4re Cool Tech. He has great info on everything GT.
