Yes, BBR . . . more "drama" . . . .
As it turns out, Summit Racing, not Steeda is apparently at fault here. Summit says Part Number 555-4109 fits 2005-2012 Mustang GTs. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sd...ns/submodel/gt
(Yes, Virginia, that part number sounds like a fake Hollywood telephone number)
But today, Steeda's tech advisor says "Nyet, Nyet" . . . 555-4109 only fits 2005s-2010s. 2012s require a combination of 555-4112 and 555-4027. (And thanks Ford for reinventing the wheel again)
This is not the first time an error in Summit's on-line catalog has bit this summer . . . .
(Recall that using a 460 in the now-failed "Plan A" was substantially based on Summit's erroneous claim that FRPP 460 motor mounts would bolt-on to an '87-'88 Thunderbird K-member . . . which they most certainly won't . . . resulting in a big "time suck" to obtain, modify, and replace the K-member . . . . )
Word to the wise: Look up anything you're buying from Summit Racing on the manufacturer's website/catalog first . . . because the CRAP Summit publishes simply cannot be trusted.
Can I resolve this mess in only three days, or will the Wheel-hop Special (featuring the rubbery factory third link) rebound into BG?
(All those clueless mopes who claim "tuning" modern muscle is "plug and play" . . . I'd like a word with you . . . .)
