Sweet vids! Shame the night didn't go as expected on the runs though. Also that mph though!
 
Right now I am installing the DiCunzolo Gen 2 trans mounts. Front one is a breeze, while the rear is a PITA. Exhaust pipes are in the way so I had to deal with micro turns with my ratchet. Lol. I noticed the rear mount has teeth which I did not expect. So we’ll see how this goes.

I did mine in 10 minutes.... of course, I took a chisel to the nipples as I didn’t see the benefit of them, but I sure saw the downside.

Thanks.  I'm pleased over all.  I wish I ran the car on the tune longer.  Seems to mature and feel better even now driving home.  The power is there for sure just need to dial it in a little and do more with my prep (ice) and lighten her up now

Chris I knocked mine off just like stealbluesho said. The only thing I noticed buy doing that. Was locating the stock mount kinda sucked putting the stocks back in without it.

ShoNoff, you need to get your suspension and tires "fixed" then you can put down some serious & consistent times.

H&R's are coming this week, Im going to order a RMM today just not sure which one to get. Do you recommend one over the other? I may also put some lighter wheels on this thing too. Part of it was me as well. I need to find this cars happy place launching. I was very inconsistent on my 3 passes.

Well a good baseline at least! How did Andrew fair? I figure he will chime in pretty quick eh?

All in all im not upset for what it is. Like I posted above part of it was me on the launching. That really was the first time I got on it hard since I bought it. Plus I was at full weight and had Andrews luggage lol. Just removing that and the spare would easily knock off 100lbs.

Thanks for your son filming. I friggin spanked that 5.3 chevy. The best part was he looked at me kinda funny when I put my helmet on lmfao. The whole night went to s***. I really wished I got runs in early so I could film you. If I didn't tell you to get in the lanes and load your stuff in my car. You may not have gotten more then 1 run. That easily was one of the slowest nights up there in a while.

Those look familiar lol. Should be nice and broken in as well. Think I put like 1500/2k miles on them.

Tim I would say they are well broken in. Just did some normal daily driving, and the vibration was minimal. I noticed it, but only in the steering wheel; and it felt like how an old V8 would feel. As for noise, the engine sounded much beefier which I don’t mind at all. The handling is great as well, much more responsive. I wasn’t prepared for it when I made my first sharp turn. Lol. And of course the SHO feels much more responsive when I accelerate. I have to say these these are defiantly a worthy investment. Thanks again Tim!!!

No problem at all. Glad they went to another car in the community. I loved the mounts easily one of my favorite mods I did to sho.
 
Hello, EBPF Family!  Forgive me for not posting or contributing in a while but I have been crazy busy especially with traveling. 

I wanted to share with you my latest update as to my newest modification of my '16 Explorer Platinum.  I haven't taken her out yet on the highways as I literally just got this installed about an hour ago but I'll have a chance tomorrow on my way to Des Moines, IA and will post videos of me opening her up later.

In the meantime, thank you to Mike Bambic at EcoPowerParts for the inspiration and my boys at Car-One Tire & Auto for all of my modifications. She sounds awesome to me.

Got my PPE catted DP's installed today. Already feel a difference and hopefully my PTU stays happier because I wrapped them.

 
I turned it on today... did some datalogging... put it back in the garage...

Then promptly started comparing a ZL1 and GT350 lol

GT350 https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/a28568041/twin-turbo-mustang-shelby-gt350-quarter-mile/

Yup, but it’s not about just the power... it’s about the experience... the GT350 is a drivers car. I miss having a drivers car.... lol...
