Shaeff: It's not so much the stock mount is restrictive it's more that the Cooler circuit has it's own 40 psi relief valve which blows off and dumps any pressure above 40 that the pump will make after shimming. :(
Add the squirters into this as an organised leak and the 7M GTE pump is moving...
Nick: As long as the Combustion Chamber isn't shrouding the valves the Bore shouldn't affect it, on a 7M when you go OS Valves the CC does Shroud the intake so it needs to be laid back some.
On our motors there isn't enough spacing to go larger than 1mm os on all 4 valves so it will work fine...
SB:Sorry if I mislead you (I posted late at night DOH)
I meant if there's any play in the bearing it will cause a noise.
As for the mystery rattle there's a bunch of stuff back there that can rattle when worn, does it sound metal on metal?
SB: Yep
Mine was grumbling when they were on their way out.
WM: Squealing could be a lot of things from glazed pads to missing antisqueal shims/clips/springs.
The "squeak" would have me concerned though.
I don't drag and have 285/35/18's so don't think I'll have either a problem or traction with my 4.1 Torsen :) !
I love how drivable it is as my 4.30 LSD made the car an understeering pig!
Jon: I have trouble believing you just wrote that!
Your talking about your new motor/combination yet you say you need to be rich to buy a $300 rack?
You enjoy driving the curves I'd think new precise steering would be right at the top of your list of must haves?
I got my rack and pump...
Jon: Find a nice windy downhill section shut the motor off and coast down it then decide if that's what you want all day every day.
(you'll have enough brakes for one or two applications so keep this in mind)
(surely a new Mustang rack can be bought cheap there?)
