Tremec would be the way to go. There is a reason why my mechanic can swap the gearbox out in afternoon, done it so many times now its just by muscle memory.The MT82 gets really hot, often hotter then the engine. So changing oil frequently... (see full post)
FWIW I've been using the Motul Gear 300. Not sure what availability of Motul would be in the US though. I have tried BG Syncromesh II (also seemed good, but not available here in New Zealand) and Redline MTL. My totally unscientific review is the...
Please read all the way down. Please PM me with request for shirt, size and shipping preference. We are finalizing this batch by Tuesday May 21 so we can ship out for the 1st event at Mid Ohio on June 7-9. Cost as noted is $47+ actual shipping...
Canadians, especially those around Mosport are extremely polite and helpful.
We've been running there for years, and getting the rigs through customs can occaisionally be stressful.
1. If you have any firearms leave them with friends in the...
Try Dave Zeckhausen at Zeckhausen Racing. If anyone has one lying around, it'll be Dave.Or just find another left rotor and run it backwards. Unless you're running hard, nobody will ever know the difference.
My track events are ~80 minutes per day.
I change engine oil every 2 events, sometimes 3 if its cold weather, always do oil analysis and the oil is always fine. I bet I could stretch this but no reason to.
I use Redline MTL in my MT82 and I've...

I mean that's a $4,500 rear brake setup. The fronts are another $5,500.https://www.essexparts.com/ap-racing-by-essex-radi-cal-competition-brake-kit-generic-front-9660-372mm6471It looks like they have some slightly cheaper options at $4,600...
New motor same old Watkins Glen. Great two days to break in, tune and lap at the Glen with @Black Boss , race weekend at Mid Ohio coming up next weekend.
Judging that a 5.0 can get to flat plane hp numbers simply enough, I would think the added peace of mind of a cross plane would be the way to go. Does ford have a cross plane shortblock for the 5.2 since thats what they race with? (see full post)
Can't second this enough - I ran the predator oil pan, pickup, and pump. My engine vibrated the pickup tube to death and broke the mount and it was balanced to a higher degree than stock.a cross plane crank and cams are a direct drop in for a...
