Bullitt vs. GT
I have an oportunity to purchase a 2001 s/c bullitt. I am dropping out of school because i just obtained my wholesalers dealers license. I trhink i remember reading somewhere that the heads on a bullitt are different from the heads on a Gt. i also read somewhere that the bullitt bottom end is pretty much bullit proff. can anybody give me any info on this?

yeah bullits have a better intake, slightly better suspension(me think) and better brakes...i think they onyl produce 10 more HP than stock gts

RE: Bullitt vs. GT
That's correct, It's a GT engine with an aluminum intake with a weird plenum part which takes a cobra Throttle body. One or two of the pulleys are underdrive. It's got different struts shocks, springs, swaybars (not sure about subframes), some intererior and exterior dress up(pedals, wheels, fuel door, sidescoop deletes, no spoiler). The intake only gives like 5 more peak torque/hp but it does raise up the whole curve so it actually has more impact that you might think. I believe it also came with better mufflers.

Dropping out of school is not good. At least get some kind of degree. No one can ever take that away from you and it proves to future employers that you can handle the work that is given you.
What they say about Bullitt's is true. Nice car, great color (most common is green which is my favorite color) and improved suspension and brakes. The intake is also an improved design. The Mustang model that all the auto publications went nuts over, and, rated the most bang-for-the-buck, is the Mach 1. If you are thinking about buying a Bullitt, find yourself a Mach 1 to test drive also. You may just be happy you did.
Good luck with your choices.

They were rated @ 272 hp while the GT was rated at 260.

RE: Bullitt vs. GT
OK well i found out where i thought about the heads. my 5.0 magazine did a comparison between the ullitt mach 1 and 99 cobra and they said the bullit had lighter heads for a lower center of gravity. ill take a picture.
and on the school issue im sick of school. my dad didnt go to college and he owns and runs 23 apartment complexes across texas. so a degree is not neccesary.
