Schroeder02 FF 2013 Build



Out with the old Motor
The new Motor

The new motor is a proficiently built low 8.5 to 1 compression motor, that has been dyno broken in and ready run.

Crower rods
CP Pistons
ARP Studs (head and Bottom end)
Billet main caps
Billet Oil pump gears
Head work (over sized valves)
Ford racing intake manifold

The turbo will be a precision GT3071, Miltec turbo manifold, 3” turbo back exhaust. Stage 4 clutch, upgraded fuel pump. I’m also adding oil cooler and power steering cooler, new radiator and hoses.
I will be rebuilding the front suspension with new poly bushings, CFM lower cross member brace, and new end links.
I’m also looking to replace the driver set, possibly with a Sparco Circuit Seat.

The helmet has a special meaning for many drivers. How important is it to you? - It protects my head.

Do you have any special rituals when the helmet is concerned like many have? - I wipe it so that I can see better.
