Hell yeah! I also have a stage 2 D4 with a Mcelod rst & 4.09 in the rear & it was the best decision i ever made & even 8k rpm shifts are silky smooth

The octane booster from bobo zone is legit. It makes my 02 signal react accordingly. I’m sure you noticed that also. Thanks again for the good content brother.

[@Bobbrians]

I installed a RAM billet flywheel and RAM power grip single disk clutch on my 2019 GT. With the new clutch and flywheel the transmission had a tiny bit of gear rattle and some occasional shudder on low rpm take off, shift lockout past 7k was eliminated and shifts were much easier, pedal feel and pickup point was significantly improved as well. Car is stock with just a shifter bushing to firm up the mount.

Excellent video! KEEP ON ROCKING! I have a 2013 Mustang GT w/Track Pack and if ever blow up my trans I will be taking it to Ben.

I recently installed the Stage 2 D4 in my 2020, love everything about it, very smooth and shifts are on point. Ben Calimer actually recommended the Lethal Performance LPXHD clutch for my car. Its paired with the MGW X spec short throw shifter, also trans mounted, All three together are perfect. Currently 720whp and this trans allows much more in the future, great video, thanks for the review, not many out there.

[@1slow5point0]

10 points = one octane number. I always thought that say 7 points would make 93 into 100 octane. But it actually only makes it 93.7.

[@carterz_gaming2146]

Shit are u sure lol?

[@angreygt3508]

True, but he misspoke a little, it advertises 7 "numbers" or 70 points with their unleaded version and 8 "numbers" or 80 points with their offraod version. Technically, you are correct, but the product actually (claimed) boosts true 93 to 100 octane

[@1slow5point0]

@@carterz_gaming2146 yes. Although Alex misspoke and said points, not numbers. Most of the stuff you’ll see on the shelf says points. VP actually says numbers on the bottle. I had to go look because I never used any of theirs before.

oh…and do you got a replacement from spec or do you go with another brand?

[@TerronDHardaway]

My mechanic recommended McLeod …but I had went with Spec because they were cheaper….he had told me after I tore up nearly everything in my driveline that it was because the spec clutches were really hard on the driveline seeing that they’re built more for just track use & don’t have much slip

[@HRMN8R]

Alex, you used to always suggest mounting the Barton Hybrid 3 in the body mount configuration to avoid NVH, but then you installed this one to the transmission. What made you change your mind? I'm getting ready to install mine this week and would rather set it up in a more favorable configuration and avoid going back in to reconfigure it.

[@valiant7357]

Did you trans mount ?

[@HRMN8R]

@@valiant7357 Yes, I did. NVH increase was small - totally tolerable. I made sure to use the foam pad they provide, and I stuffed all the original OEM sound deadening back in when I put the console back together.

[@Sigrafix]

This might be a stupid question but what do you do when your engine is down a cylinder?.. how do you fix that? You need a new short block or what?

[@oheightSI]

It depends on the damage. But the short block will either have to be replaced or sent to a machine shop to be cleaned up and machined for a new rotating assembly. There’s no easy way around it really.

[@sylvesterstallone8637]

Phil is right you can’t just take the engine out and put a new piston inside and then it’s fixed, that’s not how it works, you’re better off just buying a brand new short block, do you have to be so accurate when putting new bearings on the crankshaft for the connecting rods and the mains You have to have somebody who knows what they’re doing either to build the short block with all that money spent you might as well just get a whole brand new short block
