- stevbd replied to the thread S550 Budget rain/street tire.That’s the first time I’ve heard the SS described as “scary” in the rain but I don’t doubt the 4S is improved. New to new comparison? I’ve used the SS for years as my track rain tire with good success, partly because 4S doesn’t come in a... (see full post)
Junkyard Dog replied to the thread Thoughts on GTD Style Fenders?.15 degrees on the oil temperature alone is a huge reduction. I you were bumping up against 280, that's only 265 now . . . That's a big change for just a hood change to the GTD vents. It makes me wonder how much more those huge open louver... (see full post)
67GTA replied to the thread Pulling Axle - What’s Needed.You can swap studs without pulling the axles. There’s a hole in caliper bracket large enough to allow the stud to pass through. Line the first stud up with the hole, tap it out, rotate until the next one lines up and repeat. Install is... (see full post)
TheTed replied to the thread Thoughts on GTD Style Fenders?.It was as close to the same as I could get while being on the same day. I'd say it's enough to show a definite improvement in temperature. (see full post)
mrw2442 replied to the thread SN95 1994 Cobra #1555.Here you go. You will need Ford Racing's Deep Rear Sump Oil Pickup Tube (M622DRS302) to compliment it. Here are some pics of the clearing the MM k member and the Kenny Brown front sway bar. (see full post)-

Junkyard Dog replied to the thread S550 Budget rain/street tire.I have had some scary times in the rain on the Super Sport. I did not even realize Michelin still made them. That is why I went to the 4S after one turn on some sort of 3 season Michelin. (see full post)

TheTed replied to the thread S650 Dark Horse KRM Fuel Pump Review (and one issue).You're correct, KPM. My mistake.Yes, the fuel pump cured my issue on left hand turns. And I'm not blaming the pump for the reading, more just that now I have to pay more attention to it to prevent running out of fuel on track. Before it would... (see full post)

TheTed replied to the thread Thoughts on GTD Style Fenders?.Roughly 10F on CHT and about 15F on oil temp, but that's with the inferred oil temp reading not an actual oil temp. (see full post)

- stevbd replied to the thread S550 Budget rain/street tire.I personally still use the old Michelin Super Sport (basically a 4S) for street and rain and it’s awesome but not the cheapest. I’d second the Conti recommendation. I use 275/40/18 square.285/305 sizing is going to be a bit of a compromise... (see full post)
