Wow. What a welcome! Thank you all.
I am taking my dog into surgery right now. I will post a couple pictures of my SN New Edge when I get back. Bear in mind that I did not build, but I am rebuilding it. Blow-by is getting bad, and it's time to bore and stroke it.
I will edit this post with pictures when I return.

Well, I guess I can't edit my own posts, so I have to double post. Sorry about that.
It's a 99 GT with PI heads and Intake manifold, BBK shorty headers, BBK 75mm TB, Accel coils, Ford motorsport 42lb/hr injectors, SCT tune, leather interior, Vortech V2-SQ with a 3.33 pulley. The wheels are 17"X10.5" out back and 17"X9.5" up front. 275/45ZR17 on the front and 315/45R17 Hoosier drag radials out back.
From what the previous owner told me, it ran a 12.05 on street tires.
It needs work though. the blow-by is pretty bad, the 5th gear synchro is toast, the radio is a cobbled up mess, dash lights work when they want to. Luckily, I am a car guy and can do the electronic repairs myself. The Trans has to go out, and the 0.020" bore and stroke has to be done at a shop. I don't have the tools anymore. Someone broke into my garage about two years ago and stole most all of my tools. I really only have what the previous owner told me (he is a friend) because the guy he got it from really seemed irritated to answer any questions at all.
