Was a 3.7 V6/auto. Now:

- 427 windsor (Dart block, forged rotating assy, 10.5:1, Trickflow roller cam, AFR 205 heads, Edelbrock intake, QuickFuel Q850 carb, Accufab headers, ARP fasteners)
- 439 RWHP, 454RWTQ (Mustang in-floor dyno), 505 crank HP
- Accesssories (alternator, A/C, power steering pump) and brackets from a fox body
- Hydraulic power steering rack from 2009 Mustang
- Tremec Magnum XL 6spd
- Max Motorsports caster/camber plates
- Koni shocks/struts
- DUB springs
- Boss 302 SLA front LCA
- Eibach sway bars
- BMR UCA
- Cortex watts link
- Slotted/dimpled brake rotors
- Max Motorsports 4-point roll bar
- RACEQUIP racing harnesses

Still to do:
- Supersnake strut tower brace (if I can find one)
- Wilwood brakes
- Racing seats
- Paint refresh

Your car is ridiculous! Love it!

Any plans for the rear-deck lid badge?

I have some ideas, but those faux caps are damned expensive for what they are, and I'd like to make a couple different ones.

My primary thought is a Cobra with 427 on the left and "Power By Ford" (using a Ford emblem) on the right, and then paint the "FORD" in the cap and the recessed ring Guardsman blue to match the stripes.

My second idea was to do a Terlingua bunny with the text "Terlingua Racing Team 427" around the perimeter of the bunny image.

Both sounds like great ideas. You have a pretty unique and special car there. She deserves something more than the plain V6 emblem on the back. Your plans sound good and will really make the car pop when viewed from the rear!

Looks good Terry. When I had nitrous on my 2006 someone came up to me at the track with a question.

"Why does your radiator smoke every time you go up?"

Jim,

..... Man you just never know who you might meet on one of these internet sites.

That's funny as I can actually envision someone saying and asking you that.

It's going to be interesting to me to 1-day see and read what you end up with in regards to another Mustang.

Any thoughts you care to share on that subject Big-Guy

Still don't know. I looked at a 2015 GT on the sales floor still - then looked at Lincoln MKS with AWD and the V6 twin turbo like the Taurus SHO. Or I may just keep this one and just drive it.
