Just for the record, have driven the car using Boostane with a budget mix of 98 octane with no signs of knock on the logs. Its not for everyone but then again, its 500 rwhp or nearly 600hp to the motor, and thats really impressive! Best of luck...-
I don’t see the value in an Aluminator unless your stock block and crank are trashed. If you have a machine shop you’re comfortable working with you can achieve something at least the same, probably better for less money.I rebuilt my engine...

bnight replied to the thread Gen2 - Spun a bearing.Yeah my point was if I don't want to play with Tune i should go with Alumniator block 11:1.If you don't mind the Tune Gen 3 is cheaper and faster because of the 12:1 in N/A form. (see full post)

Yea same. Still contemplating if I want everything to be new or swap stuff over

Thanks, yeah I have a start at a similar sheet.I already have some of those parts on my busted Gen2 (cylinder heads, valve cover, ported throttle body), but a few of these were not on my radar.

Nothing says , Bang for your buck , like simply drilling the towers and getting -3 degrees that will never go out of adjustment. It's old school but it works!

bnight reacted to honeybadger's post in the thread New Ford Performance 5.0L/5.2L GT500 Aluminum Oil Pan and Pump Kit with Like.While we’ll need to wait until a motor refresh to be conclusive, there’s zero evidence so far that the GT500 oil pan, pickup, and oil pump is anything but stellar. Fitment for me was good, build quality was good, and I’ve seen no indicators of...

Buy the car that's fun to drive. With maintenance, insurance, etc... you'll come out much better in the markets with your money than betting on sports cars to appreciate.
