The wait is a right of passage for 2011 GT350. The car was delivered to SA in December and it just hit the lift this week.
Soon enough... I will definately post pics when I get them.

I'd like to say hello to all you mustang drivers out there. I'm the new guy on the block and I would like to join the Mass. chapter. I own a 2010 GT that's been warmed up a bit. (484 rwhp/ 565 fhp). I see that the members are planning a ride in May. That sounds like fun. Hope you accept R.I,er's

Well, my name is Alan Roberts. I live in Pawtucket R.I. Work in Newton, Mass. My 2010 GT actually is my wife's daily driver. Built by Tasca Ford, my buggy has a 4.6 3v, 2.3 L wipple supercharger at 12 pounds of boost, Gt 500 high flow fuel pump, bigger injecters, long tube headers, comp valve job, and last but not least, a GT 350 forged short block. Found out the hard way about those connecting rods in the 4.6

I was going to say 12lbs is pushing it on a stock bottom end.
Who did the tuning? No disrespect but a whipple at 12lbs with longtubes/fuel should make more than 480...
Also, comp valve job? Care to elaborate? Did they actually go oversized valves, or head porting, or cams, or some combination!? We need details!

Tasca ford mod shop did and does all my tuning. Car came out of the shop 12/27 and has been de-tuned until first oil change. The way my wife drives, that will probably be April before the oil needs changing. When last block blew, pistons met up with valves so Tasca replaced bent valves, brought seat widths into specs, and polished the runners just above the valve head. Stock valves, stock cams, on 3v heads. Have a 5 speed auto trans so the tune is different. They won't tune it to make the same power as a standard trans.
