So what did you do to your SHO today!?

[Deezuz]

Oh and I tossed it on the lift, changed the belt, looked at an oil leak, possibly front main, and stared at my new pry on the bench and said "maybe another day"

Replacing the stock turbos with new billet ones, currently stuck on the rear. Btw the turbos are from maxspeedingrods

I weighed my SHO for the first time today. 4418 pounds...haha. (I knew I had a big girl). I also cleaned my K&N filters.

In progress today, the magnaflow cat back gets installed, and the resonator gets deleted! Should be throaty, and better flow for sure!

Cleanly done if I do say so, and a true 2.5"all the way now! Sounded pretty good for the mere 5 miles I drove it home in the rain

Drove it. Longest trip ever

Hope to get alignment to fix a rear tire whine, possibly front struts, it'll help me decide if I have a 6th gear shudder under load, but I dont think it's the trans, probably road feels

Time to do spark plugs soon, ones i have in have maybe over 100k on them tuned the whole time. I ran Brisk for a couple years but had alot of issues so put the Motorcraft sp534 back in a few years ago gap at .028. I see rockauto has sp580 and 580x. Im staying with motorcraft, they are reliable for stomping it. The new part numbers working ok for others?

Weren't the SP580’s the stock plug? The heat range cooler SP542’s were superseded by M-12405-35T

Eh beats me anymore. I have too many Fords so i dont know what goes to what anymore. I did find a picture with sp-580 spark plugs. So i guess that whats in the 2015 sho. Maybe the other number is what i put in the 1990 sho last time.

Edit: I found my older set of sp-534, they were the factory spark plugs in my 2015 sho when i bought it. Running colder plugs i kept having issues with the ceramic breaking with motorcraft and then with Brisk. Ran a couple different brisk part numbers and they would break at WOT same as the motorcrafts. Factory sp-580 i guess is what is in now and they have been fine.
