100% spot on. My car is a 13 GT and followed his recommendations from years ago and Im still hurting feelings of 10 speed s550 guys on the street. Awesome video Alex.
@@James-in2lt are you fr rn. You really think you get to say “nice try though”. Bro that’s your fault for not saying that from the start. I can’t anymore, I’ve lost faith in humanity if you can’t recognize your lack of communication skills and instead blame me 😂😂
Papi Alex just gave away 10+ years worth of knowledge in a span of 14 minutes. With countless trials and errors through LUND racing. That’s why he’s the GOAT.
Can we all take a moment and show respect to this man here. He gave us all the answer from a 13+ year old engine in 14 mins. How much years or research and trials and errors like paya said in the comment. Follow his advice for success.
In a world full of S550 content the Gen1 love is awesome. I feel like as this channel has aged the informative videos and streams have gotten so much clearer and concise with the presentation of the information. I truly have learned so much that I feel I couldn't have gotten outside of a masterclass. At this point when I want to know something about tuning or performance regarding coyote Mustangs this is the place I come to, whether it be watching a video or busting out laughing during a stream. More videos like this could become a bible for creating a roadmap to build a monster track car or a great street car. I personally would love to see more videos like this one on boosted applications and the pros and cons for both on a Gen1. Keep up the good work!
Thanks to this dude and his high caliber knowledge of Coyotes…not very many cars wanna dig race…I still haven’t decided if I should boost, hell I really don’t enjoy roll races anyway…appreciate all your info bro!
This video is great. I have a 14 gen 1 and so does my brother. Been following your advice for a long time. I appreciate you putting this information out there.
Great advice! My 14 went 12.89 with pmas, cat deletes and tune but on a 275 Firestone Firehawk tire. Probably could have gone low 12s but didn't want to hurt the stock clutch
What was the mph? People always talk et but without mph it doesn't tell us much. If you ran 12.89 at 110 that is good if u ih went 12.89 at 120 that sucks and means you need to get out better. 60 foot tells all. The better it is better et will be but mph doesn't change alot which is why it's important to know.
Im so thankful I found this channel even before I got my 14. My little daily driver build has been so reliable and stress free thanks to the info provided by Alex. Thank you sir!
Alex has helped me with my peasant N/A lol i did exactly what he said in this video and the car really surprises people. Especially when i put stg 3 SR cams and boss springs.
I think the Gen 1s will win out every time in a manual mod for mod comparison, the SRA and S197 chassis is just lighter and better for drag racing from what I’ve seen.
@@CALISPEC1 the s550 makes more power tho. It offsets the slight weight different the solid does launch easier but you can get out fine in an s550 with the right setup. S550 makes more power but is slightly heavier so they are actually pretty close truth be told stock or modified. The gen 2 has the advantage when boost comes in but na it's close edge to the gen 1.
I had a gen 1 now I drive a gen 2. My 2011 put the power down way better, not even close. To get equivalent traction off the line, you'd need a stop the hop kit with irs lockouts, adding more weight to the already heavier car. Truth be told I would trade my 2016 for a nice 2012 if I could.
Really good informative video. Simple and well articulated. I own a Gen 3 and regardless of whether its applicable or not is irrelevant. I find it hard to fathom that a true car enthusiast wouldn’t enjoy this type of video. Appreciate you sharing your obvious knowledge.
Great video Alex! Would you please consider doing one for a Gen 3 manual transmission Mustang? I have a 2019 Bullitt with a host of mods. Last year, I went out to Bradenton Motorsports Park and was only able to run a best of 12.35 @ 116 NA with a 1.9 sixty. I also ended up burning up the clutch during that outing. I’ve since upgraded everything that you mentioned in this video, as well as added some Kelltrac Ultra Spec Inverted Double Adjustable Viking Drag Shocks out back along with with Shock Delete Engineering sensors for Magneride cars, to keep PCM happy. This is going to be a lengthy comment, but here is the list of mods that I have done to my car: - Subframe braces - Diff. bushing kit with through bolt kit (black bushings) - Subframe bushing supports - Hardcore diff. bracket - Subframe alignment kit - Adj. rear camber arms - RLCA Spherical bearings - Adj. toe links - Billet vertical links (delrin bushings) - 1 piece driveshaft - Driveshaft safety loop - Tri-ax Race shifter - Adj. motor mounts (set to drag race configuration) - Idler and tensioner pulleys Other suspension/drivetrain components - KellTrac Ultra Spec Viking Inverted double adjustable rear shocks - Forgestar D5 17X10 beadlock drag wheels with 305/45/17 MT ET Street Radials and 18X5 front runner with MT radials - Ram Pro Street Twin Disc Cerametalic clutch with lightened aluminum flywheel - Built MT82-D4 transmission with Cryo and WPC treated hard parts, carbon fiber lined synchros and a Setrab external fluid pump for cooling purposes - Hitmaster 2 Stage Hydraulic Clutch Hit Control System (controls the amount of fluid and slip to the clutch via valving and programmable digital launch and shift timers).

Great video Alex! I love the format of the info delivery too! Sometimes really good and helpful / insightful info can get hidden inside other videos. This sort of 'generic formula' video should help with frustrating noob questions (from people like myself) from clogging the comments and chat sections in your channel. Keep up the great work man. I appreciate you!
Love it. 13gt tuned by you been going consistent 11.5s with boss mani 4.10s ffe and springs still stock clutch. 3450 with me in it. Got plans for clutch and full suspension trying to go 10s on 93 😊
Just bought a 2012 mustang mt-82 Manley rods,pistons,ported heads,comp cams stage 2s,boss 302 intake,pmas,3.73s on 93.Plan on getting some LU47s and going e85 and eventually going with a tvs or centrifugal blower.
If it has manly rods and pistons I'd throw a gen3r on it and go ham. You can also do the odin if you prefer that design either use same 2650 tvs and it would be beastly with that. Perfect street car setup that can also get down at the track. Thank me later.
Only thing that changes is you go 3.15 gear and a healthy stall converter. Drag radials work better with an auto bias isn't "needed" as much as with a stick shift. That's basically it there isn't gonna be a huge difference between manual and auto setups the engine stuff will be the same stuff.
I was just looking at doing this swap into a S197 with a Gen 1. Your opinion on sourcing the engine, F-150 vs Mustang Gen 1, which would be better to buy. Some say stay away from the F-150 due to often lack of maintenance being that it is a truck. The manifold and the cams in the F-150 vs the one in the Mustang, also the cams in each. Also, what type of price point and mileage to look at when purchasing these Gen 1 or all for that matter engines. EXCELLENT video. This is where there should be a multiplier option for the like button.
@@YDBT4LIFE thank you for the video. Very informative😊. What about fuel pump like DW400 for NA gen1 mustang or even supercharged ones ? Do you recommend with the list you mentioned? Any other aftermarket fuel pump you would recommend other than DW400?
Ive ran a 12.6 1/4 with a 1.9 60ft in my auto 13 gt with 3.15 gears in about 2000+DA on a 255 summer tire. Ive done minimal weight reduction, coilovers, pmas cai, 47lb ford performance injectors, e85, 160 thermostat, and 6r80 race trans tune shifting at 7500 rpm. Planning on getting a 245mm 3800-4000 rpm converter, LTH, ported boss, more weight reduction and alot of suspension to try for 10.9-11.1 in a lower DA setting
@@169abr you can go 10s with the m122 lots of guys have done it just like gen 1 5.0s can go 10s all motor. I've seen guys go deep 10s with the m122 like 10.60s.
@@169abr and you can get vmp 2.3s as well it isn't either or you can have a 2.3 and a vmp blower lol. The gen3r 2650 will make it even easier but guys have went 10s with the small m122. Back when they first came out they did a pulley tune and filter with a catback and was trapping like 124 mph going deep 11s with those simple mods in mm&ff when they first tested the gt500s.
Absolutely loved the video, especially since I have a Gen 1 N/A (Convertible) build in progress. I have done most of what you listed in the video including 18+ manifold and front sway bar delete. Will removing my rear sway in favor of an anti-roll bar help the weight transfer better?? I do have a 2011 Track Pack. Also at what point should I change OPG/CS?? Thanks for all your videos about Mustangs and Corvettes and keep up the fantastic work you do.
@@turbinatorlou I drive both pretty regularly, S550’s are much comfier between the two but both would be a substantial upgrade to a fox as you said lol
@@turbinatorlou you'd prob like the s197 better coming from a fox it's still solid axle so you'd be familiar. It has a much more modern than a fox feel but still kind of raw compared to an s550. Alot of guys think the s550 is too refined just depends what you come from and are used to
This is such a great concept. Super informative super straight to the point as always. Wondering about “sub” category builds. What about maybe a gen 1 daily build that would give other cars a run for their money? Just a thought. Thanks for all the info.
My stock clutch held 30k boosted miles with hard launches until I had issues with my pedal sticking. I went with a lpx twin disk clutch kit . I highly recommend it , pedal feel is the same and grabs at the same point as factory , smooth engagement and isn't loud considering its not a sprung clutch
30k isn't very much honestly. You just got lucky it didn't go sooner but even 30k isn't good my 16 fiesta st (diff platform I know) is on stock clutch working fine with 115k, 60k of that have been fbo hybrid turbo making 280 wheel in a 2600 lbs car which is alot from a 1.6 and over 50% more than stock. That is good. 30k isn't that good even making good power boosted. The oem clutch just isn't good on those mustangs. *edit* Yes I Beat the car alot no lift shifts but I also know how to drive.
Oil pump gears aren't needed on any setup if you aren't bouncing off the limiter like a prick. The need for them is highly over exaggerated. if you're bouncing off the limiter like an idiot especially boosted you can even break upgraded ones.
2 steps aren't really that necessary but the bias ply Def is. Depends on the driver some people don't really need a 2 step. It's helpful but I don't really think it's necessary depends how good of a multitasker you are
@@midnight347 i disagree. To be super consistent na, and to do it right boosted, you need 2 step/launch control. What’s the alternative? Holding your rpm at 5500 rpm and keeping it there all the way threw the launch? There is no way your gonna be able to regulate the throttle as good as 2 step would.
See the good thing about this setup is that you’re ready for a centri setup just upgrade the fuel system and you’re good to go. Might be the way to go when I get my 2012!
My old 2012 gen 1 use to random misfire on cylinder 8 intermittently. Mods were cj mani, gt500 throttle body, ford intake, catless headers w borla mufflers. On 93 pump gas 6r80.
@@169abr it isn't that bad man people really exaggerate this. It has alot to do with the suspension you're running and the wheel and tire setup. On a light drag pack with thick tire they ride much better. The solid axle doesn't make it ride as awful as people wanna make it out to be.
100% spot on. My car is a 13 GT and followed his recommendations from years ago and Im still hurting feelings of 10 speed s550 guys on the street. Awesome video Alex.
The best part is the face of the 10r80 guy when ya beat him too! 😅
Awesome job man! 👏
It’s an amazing feeling when you can run with the 10 speeds in a manual the 10 speed guys are insanely confused lol

You just got lucky it didn't go sooner but even 30k isn't good my 16 fiesta st (diff platform I know) is on stock clutch working fine with 115k, 60k of that have been fbo hybrid turbo making 280 wheel in a 2600 lbs car which is alot from a 1.6 and over 50% more than stock. That is good. 30k isn't that good even making good power boosted. The oem clutch just isn't good on those mustangs.
*edit*
Yes I Beat the car alot no lift shifts but I also know how to drive.
This is awesome hoping for a boosted manual gen 1 video!
Nice, keep on going this is great tutorial for car builders.
Love this format! Thank you sir 👍🏻
Ayyy let’s go, all about that gen 1 life
I haved learned so much from you. Thanks Alex!
I would also add Boss 302 valve springs and billet oil pump gears for good measure
Oil pump gears aren't needed on any setup if you aren't bouncing off the limiter like a prick. The need for them is highly over exaggerated. if you're bouncing off the limiter like an idiot especially boosted you can even break upgraded ones.
Hell yea looking forward to these.. Will you be doing videos on Turbo setups also?
Super helpful. Thanks as always Alex!
Bias plys and 2 step/launch control are a must to get 10’s. I’m not na but I launch at 5300 rpm and do under 1.45 consistently.
2 steps aren't really that necessary but the bias ply Def is. Depends on the driver some people don't really need a 2 step. It's helpful but I don't really think it's necessary depends how good of a multitasker you are
@@midnight347 i disagree. To be super consistent na, and to do it right boosted, you need 2 step/launch control. What’s the alternative? Holding your rpm at 5500 rpm and keeping it there all the way threw the launch? There is no way your gonna be able to regulate the throttle as good as 2 step would.
See the good thing about this setup is that you’re ready for a centri setup just upgrade the fuel system and you’re good to go. Might be the way to go when I get my 2012!
Great series idea👍
I think this series will allow for a lot more followers as people can find what they need for their specific build or goals! Quality content!
My old 2012 gen 1 use to random misfire on cylinder 8 intermittently. Mods were cj mani, gt500 throttle body, ford intake, catless headers w borla mufflers. On 93 pump gas 6r80.
This series going to be 🔥 maybe we won’t get peasants asking this over and over in the livestreams
These recipes have been on the net for years and years it isn't hard to find this info people are just lazy af
Thank you for making this
Turbi said make one of these videos of how to run 7s
Loved if... Love to learn in layman terms. Thank you
Great info ! Gen 1s are great cars , knowing how much easier their suspension is to setup for drag racing makes me regret my gen 3 manual lol
Gen 1's ride noticeably worse, much prefer a Gen 2/3
@@169abr it isn't that bad man people really exaggerate this. It has alot to do with the suspension you're running and the wheel and tire setup. On a light drag pack with thick tire they ride much better. The solid axle doesn't make it ride as awful as people wanna make it out to be.
Excellent no nonsense video
Excellent video, Alex. 💯
Great Contant all as always. Dropping that knowledge bomb
Ran a best of 12.9 when my car was stock, in 5000+ DA with just a tire and stock tune.
Guys have been 12.2 or so on a tire in good da so that is about right. Good for your da
