    Tuning for dummies

    Interesting... I have never gotten into E85 but a bunch of my corvette buddies run it and they all say a lot of the pump is usually in the 60's... and shockingly Kroger usually has the best E85 around.

    Tuning for dummies

    I cant speak to what those guys call their tunes, but most tuners I believe will build an ethanol tune that is based on up to E85 and the tune has tables for lower levels of ethanol in the fuel... Most pump E85 is no where near 85% ethanol. This kind of stuff is a big reason why the "flex...

    Tuning for dummies

    When running E anything on any vehicle the limit ends up being fuel delivery capabilities... MOST stock fuel systems on DI cars dont seem to be able to run actual E85(they can obviously run it, but they cant take full advantage) because they run out of the ability to deliver fuel. E50 MIGHT be...

    Mirror tap for Radar detector

    Got mine installed yesterday. My mirror tap has been in 3 different vehicles now and the wire had broken where it went into the 2a fuse... So I had to do some wire repair of the mirror tap, but all is good now.

    ST front recovery points

    I wont admit to having any experience with those two jeeps, but every other jeep I have experience with has STEEL crash beams... not aluminum. So guessing those factory Jeep tow hooks thread into a steel crash bar. OR the factory tow hooks are secured to the steel frame rails.

    ST front recovery points

    All the factory tow hook would be screwed into would likely be that aluminum crash bar anyway... Try to get somebody who has that on an early 2020 to post a picture. I bet its a nut welded to that aluminum crash bar... And honestly they arent really, on any car, designed to really pull on...

    ST front recovery points

    I dont think you understand how that bridal works... You hook one T hook on each frame rail and then you pull from the center. You arent pulling to the side.

    ST front recovery points

    This is another "solution" although not as clean. https://www.yellowlifting.com/tow-strap-car-tie-down-c-72/3x30-tow-strap-v-bridle-with-tj-combo-hook-2-leg-5400-lbs-p-2073.html T hooks are what works on the small oval holes on the frame rails just inside of the jacking point. However ours...

    ST front recovery points

    The "crash bar" behind the bumper cover is aluminum correct? I saw another thread where it just bolts on and off the frame horn's... If you REALLY want a screw type recovery point that would be super easy for a fab shop that does TIG welding to drill into the crash bar at the proper location...

    QUESTION: Carbon Build Up

    Does the 3.0 have port injection in addition to direct injection? I cant find anything conclusive on it, but everything says its based on the 2.7 Nano engine which appears to have gotten port injection added in 2018.

    First "mod" already done... mirror tap and blend mount... used the same blend mount as the Chevy I traded so lucky there.

    yea, its my beater POS Z06... it was cheap because it was neglected prior to me buying it. Im slowly bringing it back to life, needs rear end gears replaced and a full deep detail and a few other odds and ends addressed(ive already addressed a bunch). Ive had 6 Corvette's. Ill likely always...

    What did you pay for your ST

    That I cant tell you. If it was an early 2021 it seemed dealers have more incentive to move them. Most of the ST's I saw around here that had pretty good discounts on them AND qualified for the "select inventory cash" i.e. stale inventory were being driven as demo's...which didnt interest me...

    Picked up a 2021 ST last night here in Dallas... 2021 Carbonized Gray no sunroof tech package street package Took 3 dealers to get a deal going. Dealer 1 was working on a left over 2020. They present "the deal" which is like 20% off MSRP... ok good good... then they spring the "$3995 dealer...

    What did you pay for your ST

    I didnt get as smoking of a deal as some got on here, but I was obviously ok with it enough to move forward: 21 ST, no sun roof, Tech pack and Street pack. 56090 MSRP 2299 dealer discount 1250 ford credit rebate 52541 sell price(plus TT&L) Had I gone to a different dealer I might have gotten...
