Alan...You're doomed. LOL[/QUOTE]

Stop pointing out the obvious Steve. I am keeping the car stock. I am keeping the car stock. See, it is easy to say.

I figure if I can push enough of his parts maybe I will get a really big discount lol!!!!

Most of the guys with the SVTPP use the Eibachs, and they sit really nice. Of course I am like you... If mine was newer with the SVTPP I don't know if I would lower it or not, they sit pretty nicely stock.... not at all like the 4X4 look my car had from the factory. Check out www.fordGT500.com message forum. There is a lot of tech info on there and it is a really laid back place (kinda like here). My screen name over there is RTSteve, you can search and find about anything you want to know.

If you want, I will take you for a ride and the noise that it makes when you crank the boost up will probably have you on the phone with Dan scheduling a custom tune before you get out of the car.

Gotta work every angle you can, smart man. Thanks for the link, a co-worker suggested it as well. I will see if I can find some pics of his cars, a 67 and 07 GT500.

I definitely would like a ride, trying really hard to resist the tune/pulley direction.

Alan, get the Avant Garde in 20x10 on all four corners. Hyper silver they're awesome and fit perfect.
