  1. Am I running too hot?

    I would keep an eye on it and check with Ford to see if those numbers are OK. I might (would) put the spurs to it to see where the temps go. Best to know before the warranty expires. It goes without saying that you kinda need to be discreet where this is done. At best, second gear gets you a fat...
  2. "OleYeller" GT350

    Uh, sell it?
  3. Check Your GT350 Oil Filter!

    What filter wrench do you use to torque the filter and what method do you use to remove the filter?
  4. Check Your GT350 Oil Filter!

    Thanks for the info and I may order the oil filter removal tool and magnets. Before removing the original filter I did take my new filter to the parts store and bought a filter wrench that fit pretty snug to the bottom of the new oil filter. It wouldn't budge the filter on the car. It simply...
  5. Check Your GT350 Oil Filter!

    I just changed my oil last weekend for the first time. Dang, the filter was nearly impossible to get loose. During the process I almost destroyed it. A lot of foul language involved. Is there a special filter wrench I should get? In addition, I was really surprised at the twist off plastic drain...
  6. Another man down

    If it goes through insurance it's gonna have a bad Carfax. But it could become a good deal in the future if it's repaired properly.
  7. Gt 350 oil consumption

    Mine is black with no stripes. I do like white with blue stripes. Very traditional. I think it would be cool for Ford to bring back Wimbleton white. I am basically trying to stay "under the radar" with the black paint scheme. I hope! Speaking of radar, I need to buy a good detector. Any thoughts...
  8. Gt 350 oil consumption

    I'll get some photos soon. I picked up my TP 350 this past Monday in Chicago. I drove the car to Georgia on Wednesday. When I picked up the car it had 700 miles on it. I drove it about 800 miles home. I checked the oil when I got home. It was just below the add mark on the stick. ??? I'll...
  9. Gt 350 oil consumption

    What kind of initial oil consumption, if any, is everyone experiencing with the new 350 engines? Have there been many dyno tests done by folks on the forum and if so would you share the results?
  10. S550's For Sale!

    Thanks for the feed back. It's been a real difficult decision. I actually had to sell my 13 Laguna Seca with under 7000 miles to make the R happen. The LS is a really great car. Did everything extremely well. I would have loved to have been able to own both. I decided today to take the deal on...
  11. S550's For Sale!

    I plan to actually drive the car occasionally. I really don't want another garage queen and I would probably not track the car due to it's rarity. Another set of wheels and tires would be needed for the R because of the fear of damaging the carbon fiber originals. I believe I'll take the money...
  12. S550's For Sale!

    Possibly wrong place on the forum for this but my R finally arrived at the dealer last Friday. After a mishap it in their parking lot it is ready to bring home. I have someone that wants to trade the R for a track pack and 30K. Kinda amazed and don't really want to part with the R but is there...
  13. 2017 GT350 orders

    Sounds great! Keep us posted. Like to hear how it turns out. I spoke with my dealer last weekend and he was unable to order any 17's except the Fusions.
  14. 2017 GT350 orders

    I also wonder if the dealers know their allocation for the 17's at this time? Anyone have any info, thoughts or rumors?
  15. 2017 GT350 orders

    Anyone have an idea or any reliable information if Ford is accepting orders for the 2017 GT350? Are they going to be allocated like the 16's? Is there a option list available such as colors etc.? Kinda curious as to the possible changes in the cars.
