T-top structure being safe from flexing
What would be a good hp and torque level for a t top model stang, as far as being safe and not twisting the body. I will have sub frame connectors on before I do any serious modding. Any recommedations on what power and what other types of extra support I would need to keep the body and frame from flexing?

i dont really know. but i would think it could hold as much as any other hard top stang if the chassis was strengthened enough. I will be putting about 350-400 rwhp and about 400-450 tq in mine. i will be getting some subframe connectors, welding some in car braces, and all the suspension mods needed to support the power i am doing. *maybe a 4-6 point roll bar, MAYBE*

subframe connectors, maybe a floor bar.. but mostly.. a roll bar
they look hot in ANY stang
