    Ralphie, your always more than welcome. Your the only one with grayer hair than me. I'll see you in Kingman Thursday night. Sorry you can't make it Jason. Maybe next year. Should have more details posted tomorrow.

    Leno likes 05/06 GTs better!

    I ran into him at SEMA about a month after he got his GT. I was wearing my GT build team shirt. When he saw that, he asked if I was on the program. I told him that I was, and that I had driven his car at MPG before it was delivered to him. He gave me a giant bear hug and thanked me. We chatted...

    Where are the GT Guys?

    I can, without a doubt vouch for Rich and Dennis, The GT Guys. If I had a GT and didn't do my own work, I'd move hell to get it to the guys. I went on the GT program in 2003. They had already been intricately involved years before that. I'd venture to say they know more than most of the people...

    Where are the GT Guys?

    Atomic, I've been doing GT work around the Southwest for years now. Most of my clients are in the metro Phoenix area, but I have done work and PPIs in LA, So Cal, Vegas, even Texas. What is nice is that I come to you. Let me know if I can be of any help.

    Pulley & Tune Vacation Day

    I doubt the aluminum idler pulley was made for weight savings. It's a lot easier to machine it out of aluminum than steel. Believe me, it's a work of art. Rich and Dennis (GT Guys) did a magnificent job on this piece. I'm just sorry that, due to it's location, nobody will see it. Great job guys...

    Is anyone running Amsoil 5W-50 in their FGT?

    Some years ago, while dyno testing a prototype Ford Racing crate motor at Roush's dyno lab, we ran back to back comparison pulls between Mobile 1 and Amsoil. The Amsoil pull was within 1 HP of the Mobile 1 pull. A statistical dead heat. We didn't try the Motorcraft (Conoco-Phillips) full...

    Poking a hornet's nest

    :facepalm: I'm sure this will get HUGE responses, (likely not good ones) but I feel it is necessary to express some thoughts. Shouldn't the new GT be called the Multimatic GT? Let me explain. We all know that the original GT-40 was farmed out to various non OEM builders. Ford supplied most...

    Autometer Replacement Gauges

    One of my clients has a bad speedo. He contacted Auto-Meter, and was told replacement gauges were available, but they would not sell directly to the public. Strictly through a Ford dealer. Seemed strange to me as small gauges are available directly. Scottsdale dealer wanted nothing to do with...

    Got my Ford GT Recall Notice Today for Air Bag Replacement

    I'm not sure if the dealer did it, but it's really important to disconnect the battery ground cable before proceeding with any air bag removal. I've installed or changed more than a few air bags and really would not relish getting a face full of air bag caused by an errant spark or power surge...

    Who will build it?

    I love the new car. Not as much as the 05/06 as I was heavily involved in that one, but it has a blue oval on it. Looking at it from my point of view as part of the 05/06 build team, Who is going to build it? Saleen wanted to build 100% of the 05/06 GT, but Ford demanded that it be finished...

    Ford GT on Cranky Ape

    Thanks Jeff. I'll remember that. Now if I can only find the rest of the 4000 or so pieces needed to build a GT, I can have one of my very own.
