The dead cat is probably due to a problem with the O2 sensor and would most likely be due to heat. Since the O2 sensor is part of your wideband setup its critical in keeping your engine alive and running well. I once had a bad sensor and the heat it caused, burnt a hole in my header!!!

Hmm.... I would guess it had more to do with the O2 sensors then the cats. DO NOT TRACK the car if your O2 sensors are reading funny or sending codes. Logging the car before a event is always a good idea. My O2 sensors tend to die after a season or two, always keep extras in my track bag.

Totally agree, thighs are much better then breasts..... But we are talking chickens here.

Oh Boy, that would do any piston in and maybe two on Sunday. Gen3 shortblock is a good way to go, Very happy with mine.

But do you really want to let some else do the BBQ?

look on the bright side! My brother has a lot of knee problems and is living in the UK and his doctor said try cumin with pepper capsules. He said they worked a lot better then the pills he was popping before. That and in the worst case, how about a new knee!! A track buddy got one and now he...

If you have a SCT device to put back the OEM tune then you can change the ratio. Basically whom ever puts the OEM tune in can change the ratio.

I would just add that even getting 75 psi at the track on a Coyote is RED ALERT time.

That would be without me, but with 1/2 tank.... So add another 190lbs, heavy helmet!gads... that would be 3655lbs!!

Was wondering about that as well.. I am at a porky 3465lbs

take offs are great! Love them

The Hoosier official tire pressures are a little bit nuts for me. Totally agree with the above with 32 hot as the max pressure I would shoot for. If you get over 35psi then you know your going to go slow. My ideal hot psi is 32F/30R for the R7's. Dunlop slicks like 30F/28R

If not going for a Watts.... then I would keep the original PB brackets. Ford did do a lot of things right on these cars.edit... I guess I 3rd it!

Just think, with a some good suspension, brake and engine mods, the S197 can keep up to Porsche GT4's that are also race prepped. Not the Clubsports though... thats in a whole different category.... But then again, for the price of a clubsport you could buy/prep/race a 1/2 dozen S197 cars...

Naa... nothing you can't handle!
