Default The time has come....

Hey guys its been about a month since I was on the forums last. I have been on leave back home and shipping my car so its been a relaxing break from work and the military but in 1 week I will be down in Pensacola, FL and will be starting the big build that has been several months in coming.

For all the people that werent here or dont remember heres the last update that I put out for my plans to build a street legal monster.

Supercharger - KB or Whipple
Transmission - 6speed Racing Tranny (not sure on brand)
4.6L Stroker Full Longblock Assembly - MMR, Livernois, or DSS
Pro Fuel System - 05-07 GT Ultimate PRO Fuel System
Pro Fuel System - Ford GT Supercar Fuel Pumps
Cams - Comp Cams 05-08 GT Xtreme Energy Stage IV Camshafts
Driveshaft - Mustang GT 1000hp 4" Driveshaft

Moser SFI 32 spline Axel Tubes Welded to 9" Housing Ends
Differential Cover Girdle - LPW
or
Moser 9" rear end complete kit

Detroit Locker - TT 187C-145A
Springs - Steeda Sport Springs
Shocks and Struts - Tokico D-Specs
Mounts - Steeda HD Strut Mounts
UCAs - metcomotorsports.com - METCO PART #MUC2005
LCAs - metcomotorsports.com - METCO PART #MCA2005
Panhard Bar - Steeda Adjustable Panhard Rod and Brace
Anti-Roll Bar - BMR XTREME ANTI-ROLL BAR

All of this bought and installed is going to cost over 20,000 dollars most likely even with huge discounts for sponsorship and buying in bulk so thats putting a slight damper on my plans but what I am posting about today is what yall think I should do first.

The KB 24psi 2.6L kit is what I am leaning towards for my SC and thats a must for this first section of my build. After that I am at a loss as most of the things I listed are only needed based on HUGE HP and thats not a MUST for this first half of the build. The suspension is something I am also leaning towards for this build so thats probably going to come next in my list of definite musts.

Gives me tips the price tag on this first install that must include parts AND labor (estimate 25 dollars an hour) is 15,000 dollars give or take a few grand.

Glad to be back by the way and hope to see some old faces around
