I have had a few requests to sum up the mods on my car. The fact is it isn't much of a list, I may hold a record in that my car has seen three different power adders, 5 gear swaps, three completely different exhaust systems, two torque converters and a myriad of appearance changes.
I have never had failure of any stock component on the car.
For this write up I'm just going to focus on what is on the car now.
Power:
The stars of the show, custom ground cams and ported and polished heads. The heads were machined to accept Cobra valvesprings. (I have had shift points set as high as 7,000 rpm). The short block is completely stock. Current exhaust consists of shorty headers feeding a stock exhaust system from the cats all the way back. Yep single exhaust and it runs mid 12s.
Zex 82034 kit - 100 hp jets, just pulled 4 degrees of timing from my tune, no other changes for the 93 octane fuel tune, no race gas at this time. No window switch, no purge, just the base kit. The thing is a breeze to install.
Powertrain:
Stock 5R trans with a Supernatural TC at 3,500 - it really rocks.
Stock driveshaft ( I must be the last person in the world still running a stock DS)
Ford take out 8.8 with Tlok and FRPP 4.10s
Chassis/Suspension:
BMR sway bar delete
Competition Engineering coil overs with adjustable shocks
CHE Anti squat brackets
CHE non adjustable LCAs
Stock UCA
Misc:
KB 40 amp BAP
