What's Your Mod List (See what others are doing)
Ok, went browsing around the forum, and the 4.6L forum has a sticky like this and it went fairly well, so I figured I'd see how it goes here. The thread is simple. Post up your current mod list of your 5.0. Don't include what you're gonna do, or what you'd like to do, only include what you have purchased that's on the car or waiting to go on as you can always follow back up on your post. ONLY POST YOUR LIST, NO REPLYS.
Also, in addition to your list, make a DOs, and DON'Ts list. In other words, list what you liked about your set up in the DO area, and what you're kicking yourself in the rear end for in the Don'ts. Yet again, don't list things you don't have. This is for those of you that love your exhaust set up in comparison to others, but you're kicking yourself in the rear end for getting a MAC x pipe, or ebay CAI, or just whatever you've done you regret doing so.
A few, not a lot, but a few pics would also be nice so people can see what these mods will look like on their ride.
The reason for this thread is so that people can learn from other people. I see so many post about what CAI to get, and what gears feel best, and what exhaust to get, etc. The point of this post is for people to see what other people are doing. If somebody is split between CAI A, and CAI B, and a new member sees that CAI A seems to be the most popular, then they might get that one instead, or ask a different question about that CAI, instead of an "In General" whatCAI to get thread.
Like I said, mod list, dos and don'ts only, and pics only, no replys, andno reccomendations on stuff you don't have, etc.

Pros - Well so far I love everything I've done to the car, made sure to learn from some of my mistakes with the old sixer. I guess the best things about the car is the exhaust, and the gears. The exhaust sounds great, nice and rubly down low, but not loud, and very aggressive sounding up top with a lot of sound control compared to other systems. The gears are also nice in that they offer great off the line control and decent boost when you need it, they seem perfect for street 5.0s with a manual tranny.
Cons - While all the dress ups under the hood are nice, I've learned that should be the last thing you do simply because every time you need to work on your car they get scratched. Also, the Tweecer RT program is awesome, but the damn learningcurve is so damn steep that I kind of wish I went with the PMS tuner instead.

RE: What's Your Mod List (See what others are doing)
In a 67 Coupe
Production 5.0 roller block bored .040 over
Production crank, .010 under mains, crankpins cut to 2.100 SBC crankpin size(yes, you can see this is heading towards Chevy parts so shush!)
Scat Premium forged i-beam floating pin dowled5.7" rods for SBC
Mahle Motorsports Powerpak forged flat top pistons for SBC strokers with 4" stroke and 6.0" rod and 1" pin heightand Mahle file fit plasma moly top ring ring pack with oil rail support(this setup still gives stock 3" 5.0 stroke, but a 1.9 rod ratio and allows the use of the 380g pistons and Mahle's 1.5mm ring pack and short wrist pins, low weight and low drag internals)
All pistons weight matched, all rods weight matched, assembly dynamically balanced with Fluidamper Streetdamper balancer and production early model flywheel rebalanced to HO balance.
AFR 165 aluminum heads for pedestal rockers with 60cc chambers
Crane Powermax 2031 hyd roller cam/lifters(dur@.050 214int 220exh, lift .513int .529exh 112LSA 1.7 rocker ratio)
Fel Pro 1011-2 head gaskets for 9.44:1 static compression and 8.31:1 dynamic compression ratio with .045" quench height
Crane Energizer full roller rockers for 1.7 ratio pedestal mount
Comp 26986 Beehive valve springs, 123lbs seating at 1.750" installed 284lbs open at 1.175" 280lbs/inch rate, takes hyd roller cams with .650 lifts out to 6,500rpm
Comp cams magnum double roller timing chain
Melling high volume oil pump
Weiand's new Action Plus pn 8124 low(medium?) rise dual plane manifold
Holley Street Avenger 570cfm carb
MSD 6a box and electronic dizzy, with Mallory coil
Powermaster 140a alternator
Milodon high volume water pump
March serpentine underdrive pulleys(just turning the alt and water pump)
Flex-a-lite flex fan w/ shroud and 3 row radiator
Hooker Super Competition long tube headers, Hooker Aerochamber mufflers, dual 2.5" with h-pipe, dumps in front of the axle
Centerforce dual friction clutch, 10"
Toploader 4spd manual(built Ford tough) with Hurst shifter
FACTORY 1967 driveline(built Ford tough) with heavy duty u-joints
Factory axle housing and diff carrier with Richmond 3.00:1 ring/pinion and Powertrax titanium alloy locker
Competition Engineering subframe connectors and traction bars("slapper" style)
Factory suspension with new shocks and 1 1/8" front and 3/4" rear sway bar
Wilwood front disc brakes 11.75" x .810" vented steel rotors and metallic composite pads
Pros: Engine should revpretty quickly(light piston/pin package with low drag rings)and make decent power with good reliabilty for a daily driver, with good mileage. Brakes are great, car stops like a beast and the disc/pad wear is acceptable for daily use with that type of breaking performance. Mufflers are quieter than Flows and sound great, still scream pretty aggressively at WOT with some rpm's. Powertrax locker freakin WORKS for straight line traction, what a beast
Cons: make sure of a good machine shop, this setup required the Scat rods to have the big ends cut narrower on a lathe to fit the ford crankpin and have rod side clearance, the bearings had to be cut narrower also. The March pulleys are nice, but somehow I keep having pulley misalignment problems, keep changing crank spacers and shimming the waterpump and alt to get the stupid belt to align!! I think that's from the Fluidampr though. Should have it running this week(cross fingers), so if there's any other cons I'll let you know after something breaks! Also the Powertrax makes you have to change driving habits, you'll get push on the throttle through curves, and it can get pissy depending on how you get on/off the clutch in slow tight radius turns(parking lots etc), it'll slap the driveline around and get jerky, also has a fair bit of driveline backlash(everything is a tradeoff though, ain't it?)

Wilwood front disc brakes 11.75" x .810" vented steel rotors and metallic composite pads
Pros: Engine should revpretty quickly(light piston/pin package with low drag rings)and make decent power with good reliabilty for a daily driver, with good mileage. Brakes are great, car stops like a beast and the disc/pad wear is acceptable for daily use with that type of breaking performance. Mufflers are quieter than Flows and sound great, still scream pretty aggressively at WOT with some rpm's. Powertrax locker freakin WORKS for straight line traction, what a beast
Cons: make sure of a good machine shop, this setup required the Scat rods to have the big ends cut narrower on a lathe to fit the ford crankpin and have rod side clearance, the bearings had to be cut narrower also. The March pulleys are nice, but somehow I keep having pulley misalignment problems, keep changing crank spacers and shimming the waterpump and alt to get the stupid belt to align!! I think that's from the Fluidampr though. Should have it running this week(cross fingers), so if there's any other cons I'll let you know after something breaks! Also the Powertrax makes you have to change driving habits, you'll get push on the throttle through curves, and it can get pissy depending on how you get on/off the clutch in slow tight radius turns(parking lots etc), it'll slap the driveline around and get jerky, also has a fair bit of driveline backlash(everything is a tradeoff though, ain't it?)
