Finally finished installing my Alky Controls Meth kit (Running 100% methanol). I went ahead and bought the trunk mount kit with the 3 Gallon cell. (Curious how long that will last) I really love how this came together and the parts seem of pretty good quality.

Can't wait to see how she feels on the road and at the track!

THE best kit on the market! Upset mine is gone...

3 gallons? Probably not very long at first as you won't be able to keep out of it just from sheer enjoyment...

After refilling it a few times I suspect it will last through 6 or so trips to the gas station.

Lol your right about that! And I'm about to drive from Texas to the east coast on the HotRod power tour so I'll have time to "Check" it out.

6 or so fill ups is still about 3 months so I would be good with that.

Better pack a few extra cans of Meth for the trip, and a backup non-meth tune!  those sort of tours tend to bring out the teenager in everyone.

Looks like mine, I've got the same tank. I doesn't last too long while in the tuning process.

Nice, meth addicts think alike. And no it does not last during tuning. I went thru the whole tank in 3days.

Oh the drama! The squeaking is a faulty motor mount (passenger side mount to be exact) which they do not have in stock... should get the SHO back on Monday...


Funny... when I dropped it off I told them it sounded like a motor mount squeaking....

The senior tech must be devastated lol

I have doubts on the "senior" title...

I didn't update but ford denied the replacement of the half shaft and told them to road force balance the wheels...

Shocker!!! The front driver side was out of balance... which is what I told them I suspected when I dropped it off....

I give up... a week or more for a road force balance and motor mount....

As long as it comes back fixed right!  Was there a missing wheel weight?  Need to find it or else you will still be dealing with those "rocks".

Yes, they said it was missing a weight. And additionally the passenger side was not balanced correctly either.


I dunno... I know my cars... I understand these dealerships deal with idiots A LOT...  but come on..

The tech said if I had talked him this all would have been done on Tuesday... service advisor apparently disregarded what I told him..
