Dang! The blower and six speed would be a lot more than that.

Oh, I was thinking about conversion parts to make a GT500 and the engine, transmission, and running gear seemed like the place you would want to start. What could be more fun than a GT500 that looks like a stock GT!!!

how did you get all the parts for $700?

and what all is involved with the swap?
is it just skin changes + grille + heads/fogs?

or is there substructures that must be swapped out. I want that smiling front end

There are a lot of parts involved that you dont think about. Bumper guard, the fender shields etc

there is no way you can get it for $700 and get all parts....its 1200 MIN

Here is the list of parts from mellows thread

http://mustangforums.com/forum/5450184-post439.html

You should still call Kevin and go over it to make sure that is it

a GT that's as fast as a GT500 and weighs less with better weight distribution. Seriously.

Tip of the Month, October: Do not buy the $730 Roush Exhaust which a Mangnaflow rep says costs to $117 make (polished, all ss), buy the $170 Roush Exhaust Tips estimated to cost $46 to make and weld them to another company's muffler. This also lets you choose how your car sounds.

Tousley is by far the cheapest dealer for Ford parts. Just look up a few from Mellow's list and you will see what I am talking about. Even with shipping, they cheaper than any place else when I need a Ford part...

I suppose I can compile a list of all the msrps tomorrow. I can't afford the kit right now but if I can see what all costs the most I can start looking fir good deals unless I change my mind
