Im still shocked that trans didnt just shell itself. And you hadn't destoryed input shafts, axles or u joints.

Interesting to see what so called "upgrades" were actually performed.

:popcorn:

One thing found out from my buddy that works at the plant that builds these transmissions. The cases are different between 6f50 and 6f55. There are extra webbings cast into the 6f55 so a 6f50 could never be a suitable replacement for the 6f55.

As for now the known limits are when it goes boom! When it goes boom is uncertain, only ford engineer could truly answer that question as for now.

I am hearing that LMS has a fuel upgrade coming......  Not sure how or with what they are getting it, but I am in line for this with the new engine.....

I have also been told that the trans is the next weak link.  I don't drive too hard off the line, so I am hopeful the stocker will last......??

We shall see!!??

Tuner Boost

Were close to releasing the billet version of the stall converter for these, .5 sec plus reduction in 1./4 mile times.  Mike will have the details.

That is great news!  First I've heard of anything like this after the custom Circle D darreli was running.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Very interested to see results from this experiment. Half of second is absolutely huge in the 1/4 mile.

I was kinda thinking the same thing , the Police Interceptors with the 3.5 ecoboost are starting to break the half shafts on a regular bases ....

The po po are lead foot's and hard on cars .....
