wow...

the dude goes from a 4.6 n/a to a 5.4 L FI, with an eaton blower, and then decides he needs twin turbos.. hahaha

gotta love it!

Actually I went from 4.6 n/a to 4.6 on a 125 shot.
Then I went 4.6 with a 2.6L KB (left the nitrous on for when I built the motor).
Then I dropped in the 5.4 Cobra motor in.
Then I put on the smaller pulley and idler and hooked up the spray again.
Then I ordered the 2.8L KB which I canceled the other day to go with twin 60's instead.

I think I might have a mod problem![8D]

AND men think women are indecisive!!!!!!! [8D]

I like the new look......the car looks soooooo good with it's new stance....and it's sex appeal just tripled. Looks like you have yourself a full-fledged chick magnet PLstang~! Not bad for a guy that was once appearance-modification challenged~!

RE: New Shoes!!

I'm sworn to secrecy on some of the costs (my car has been a rolling test bed to some extent). However, If you PM me I'll give you some numbers.

The engine and trans came out of a wrecked GT500. The back end was crushed by a tree in Chicago during an ice storm and totaled. I bought the front clip from the wrecking yard.

RE: New Shoes!!

I swapped my wheels today and put my razors back on the car. I have to use it as a daily driver while my truck is getting some work done on it.

I took the opportunity to weigh the new bogarts and tires.

Back wheel and tire= 36 lb./per
Front wheel and tire= 25 lb./per

I was amazed at just how light they were. Didn't get to weigh the old wheels and tires (just didn't think about it) but I will next time. Interested in seeing the difference.
