unfortunately this is not a new issue. A couple of years back this same thing happened to a member over on the Corral. His name was Trumps (Jason Trumpio, even though he's not on there any more) and he had a 99 Cobra. The only thing he had changed was the gearing in his car (who hasn't done this? ) Anyway he broke the tranny and bad, and the block broke because of it. They voided his entire warranty because he had changed the gears... less than a week before the car went south. They even sent someone from SVT to come look at his car, and he said since there was rubber in the wheelwell that he was SOL...

I think he looked in to sueing them but found it wasn't worth his time. Dunno what happened after that though because he wound up leaving the Corral. I'm sure there are people on there that remember the whole thing and the outcome of it though.


Also, isn't it every manufacturer out there that will void your warranty for doing any modifications, not just Ford?
