Like you said, could be a tune, could be operator error, could just not be as stout from the factory. Tough part when people blow it up is getting the truth lol Ford has always been wishy washy about that. GM did it right by saying SS and up on track if you are stock you are covered. Major props to them. Ford gets into the nitpicky ticky tacky stuff. Like if you slip and say you were racing against others your screwed but if you are at test n tune it's ok. Its total BS the way Ford words it. |

Yea I think I mentioned that he is highly modded at this point. I mean, cams and such. Again, I'm starting to wonder if it is just an attention seeking thing or if it is legit. It's just kinda suspicious that him AND SP both are having issues at the same time. And some other dude has a highly modded GT500 and is having issues. These days these YT guys are all looking for new content to keep their viewers hooked. I lost my job, my wife cheated on me, my dog ran away, my daughter is pregnant...and all sorts of other non car related stuff to keep their soap opera going, lol!! Maybe blowing up an engine like the GT500 is the golden ticket for now. |

It does seem a bit different. I think the 350 owners supplement was a little clearer than the 500s is but this is one area Ford was always blah on, no clarity super vague. Quote:

I know this is something Ford has always done but it is really silly to take that stance with a car that they know people will want to take to the track. I could see if they pulled this stunt with the lower trims. But not when someone spends $90K on the top trim...just to be told the warranty is void if you take it to the track. |

Can these blocks and internals handle high hp? For a while, but really at that power level it's only a matter of time before something bad happens. Quote:

Can’t help but think their huge increase in warranty claims forced their hand on this one. |

I think its legit, in his video from yesterday they showed the lower parts of the engine and it was covered in oil and the mechanic gave him chunks of the block. Plus Stangmode is a huge Ford guy and I doubt he would intentionally do anything that would harm their image. The 18 Gt's tranny just went again and now this, doubt he would get any more special press invites from Ford if he was staging stuff like this.

Don't want to touch on 1/4 mile times - you don't buy a ZLE/CFTP for that.
