This was so good to discover and listen to. It took me back to early 2000 when I had some transmission shudder in my '97 4.6 MN12 and posting on the TCCOA. Jerry was just a town over and said "swing by". I am pretty sure we tested some of his first tunes between Schoolcraft and Haggerty Rd in my 4,000lb slug (in addition to riding in one of the first Terminator Mustangs). I learned so much about the 4R70W and the Ford EEC. Jerry is simply of the best automotive experts and teachers this planet has been blessed with.

So glad I found this podcast

Just saw this. Great video Ken! We will be eternally grateful to Jerry for getting us started many years ago. Never wanted anything from us, except for us to get better. Besides his obvious knowledge and genius, I was very impressed with him eating Atomic Hot Wings at Quaker Steak. It was after that day in Dayton that was referenced in the video. He never batted an eye eating them and just the smell was making my eyes water. 20+ years later, we are still going strong, thanks to Jerry!

Great to hear from you!

Great to see Jerry again! He is a gentleman and a scholar. He tuned my ‘95 Tbird with a 2000 Mustang GT engine and the Allen Engine Development supercharger kit. That car never let me down. I was the author of how to install his “Jmod” on the Tccoa. Brings back memories. Great video.

I still daily drive my Jerryfiyed '94 Cougar/'97 M8 mostly because my BT Focus ST build is on the back burner after a recent quadruple bypass. Thanks for all you've done for me old friend, happy to see the knee is still going strong!

[@jasonmiller9157]

I've had the good fortune of having Jerry turn my Tbird 3 different times. Besides the turning the info he gave me on what directions to go with future mods was fantastic. Great guy to hang out with and listen to stories from. Never met another guy like him. Fantastic times!

[@josephshaw2747]

As a young mechanical engineer at a large jet engine company, the Triton spark plug and 99 cobra stories are eye opening! I'm looking forward to the future podcasts.

[@shaunhinton3691]

Very interesting 👍

“In God we trust, all others bring data!” Great interview! Love the video! I am an OG pro racer package customer and still have the X3 installed in the glove box of my 02. Everything about the interview had me reminiscing about how passionate I have been through the years about engine calibration as I have worked at an OEM as well as some smaller names. Maybe we could chat someday - I am in FL and would be floored to be a part of the industry and your team!!

[@kellydoyel2449]

I ran the Pro Racer package on my supercharged F150.....great video....lots of knowledge there.

[@carlossobrino8790]

That was one of the best podcasts I've ever seen. I've never felt dumber 😢lol

[@jefftarr252]

Absolutely riveted for 1:48:05, really enjoyed the interview, Thanks Ken

[@NITROUSnBIASPLYS]

Learnt lots watching this. Quality I terriers Ken!

[@ALail-e7z]

Enjoyed watching, been a while since I’ve seen you guys.

[@ford9050]

I met Jerry and he tuned my car under Ford Chip. I had to laugh at the part of his temper. I saw that. He did a tuning day and got mad and punched his laptop screen and broke it and asked people if they had a spare laptop he could use..lol. He really knew his stuff back in the day. You tell him your mods while he's plugged in and he gets the tune in like 2-3 pulls. I still have the video.

[@KeithDeluca-g2j]

Ken I still remember the class Jerry did at the ford dealer outside Chicago, some of the attendees there became some of the biggest tuners out there for along time. Having worked with Jerry on a couple dyno days was a lot of fun. Good memories, good interview

[@obucinajoseph]

Wow, I feel old! Jerry custom tuned my tbird 23 years ago!I did the jmod at the same time!

[@DWH300]

Somehow the word needs to get out regarding both your excellent U-Tube channel and new Podcast. Nice choice with your first Podcast quest. It was Interesting finding out that Jerry was a mentor with his informative background including time with Ford and another Mustang icon builder Jack Roush. Not only can you build fast Mustangs, but you did a Fantastic job mediating your new Podcast. Great Job Ken.

[@route59performance34]

Jerry flew into Cleveland to tune my 2003 Cobra in 2004! Has some conversations with him, what a great guy and yes he wrote the book

[@jimmymccormick142]

[@websterzx10r1]

[@mikes1292]

[@joelubner3879]

Great Interview Ken

[@silverstang500]

I got a gt500 track pack went on the website but I don’t see the cx1000r package what’s the pricing?

[@shaunhinton3691]

Try john deere tractors 🤷‍♂️🙈👍

[@LongStroke01]

Would Jerry or anyone else that you know be willing to make a MOTEC alternative? You know, one that is available and maybe a little cheaper?
