good luck with the install man.i hope it's a quiet one.

rampant racing

did you go with the motive gears or something better?not trying to be rude but they are known for being noisy.

rampant racing

well what's the news on the gear install? good i hope.your probably out enjoying the xtra ooomph.

thunderbolt

gears are in...definitely an improvement over stock 3.31
lots of go power from a standing start
we got some gear whine going on, but not irritating at all...tech figures it may go away after a break-in period
motiv 4.10 + Ford trak lok + aluminum cover

next is to re:calibrate speedometer with my SCT tuner...speedo off by about 20k

rampant racing

i hope it goes away for you ,mine never did.got any pics of your car,it looks pretty sweet.are you going to the mustang car show in wingham in august?i might go up to check it out.

ChadStang

Good news. As far as hearing gear whine, that just means you need louder exhaust.

thunderbolt

LOL maybe!!
I actually don't mind the whine so much.

got the tuner out and reclaibrated my 4.10's + added the Bama tune
she's got some get up and go now for sure!

did a 50 mile run over to my daughter's place and back...got some vibration going on...at 60 mph. need to take a ride without the wife to see if it goes away at higher speed.

I assume there is some sort of "break in period" for the gear set...any suggestiions? around town, she's a rocket.

thunderbolt

car show? maybe..we'll see.
work in August is busy for me and wifey has plans for my vac week in august.

I'll try and post some more pics. done a fair bit of add-ons chromed bits 'n pieces inside and out
