I have to admit he did do more than me. He's a fast worker.
He's also much more patient with electrical wiring.
Coming together....
Wood,I now have wood.Oh,sorry,I'm sure no-one needed to know that.
Finished and running! 5,591.4 miles!
By the way,does this effect the factory warranty?Not the wood,the work your're doing.
His friend Ed stopped by too.
BTW the Whipple pulls like a raped ape!
It won't void the entire warantee, but If the motor goes I have issues. Ford does have to show evidence the blower was the reason for a motor issue to not honor the warantee. Google "Magnuson Act" to find out more about that.
Looks nice, Now change you sig.
Your wish is granted;)
I dropped the car off at the body shop to have the Steeda hood painted and installed today. Should be ready by the end of the week. They started not 20 minutes after I dropped it off. I would have taken more install pics, but I left the camera's memory card at home and had to rely on the internal memory of the camera.
Pauly, looks awesome dude...see you at Carlisle!
Not belittling your work or this thread or anything, but...
...I need to see MUCH more of this car.
Absolutely incredible.
These are the only other 2 photos I took. I have a chance to take more this Sunday if the weather is nice.
...thanks man, I'd love to see the interior. Was that a kit or is it all steel, hand formed, etc.?
Dude's got some serious cashola tied up in that bad boy...
dude, that pulley is HUGE! looks good, though!
Cool
Now you need to put a blower on the Cougar ;)
I think that Whipple's pulley is far too large.... ;)
6 PSI is fine for now. I'm right around 400 HP to the tires with this setup.
Eric, the body is steel. Sadly, it has a GM motor lurking under the bonnet. Like I said, If he's at Captree Sunday, I'll grab some more pics.
Need to turn the wick up on that...
The GTO made 411rwhp/430rwtq with a drop-in K&N and a tune...
:D
The dyno tune is in 2 weeks. BTW 300 hp Mustangs smoke 350 hp GTO's all day long......
No they don't. Because GTO's are 400HP :D (05's and 06's, the 04's are 350). We ran 13.34@108.2 dead stock. OE tires, spare in the trunk, paper air filter, factory oil, the works. Exactly how it drove off of the lot. A set of DR's nets 12.80's to go with the MPH. A tune drops it to 12.60's. We'll know for sure on the tune numbers by fall.
Your combo is good for 500+ rwhp if the ads are to be believed, and I'd LOVE to see that! The only 4.6's I like are blown/turbo'ed 3V/4V ones and the Whipple is one of my favorites. Plus I like that your keeping yours clean and a GT instead of ricing it out and turning into a confused horse of many names :hick:
I was speaking of the '04. I am quite aware of the bigger motor installed in the '05 and '06 models, hence the reason I din't generalize and say just "GTO's"
FYI there are manual equipped BONE stock GT time slips at the time you've shown. Stop granny Shiftin!:hick: :hick: :D
Like you said though, it don't take a lot to get alot more out of them (the GTO's that is).
Thanks!
I wanted to keep the stock hood for another year and throw on a hood later, but that decision was taken out of my hands when a Jeep Wrangler with a rear mount tire backed into my parked and unoccupied Mustang creasing the hood. The Steeda hood is on right now and SHOULD be getting painted as I type this (the body shop is a 5 minute WALK from my house!)
I had actually thought about different emblems for the side quarters. The ones in the pic are what I would go with (with the red area painted blck for my car), but sadly I cannot find them anywhere........
those look like old style gt elblems
That's exactly right! Someone makes new ones. I just can't remember -- or find -- who.

i had tons of mustang sites saved cause of my 66
That may fit even better! Looks easier to clean too!
Looking good Paul wish I could have been there. Looking at the back round that place looks familiar.
Here are some old style GT emblems :D
