Well this was my last track car, a 1995 Ford Mustang GT with just about every mod you could throw at it... (Over 30,000.00 in mods...) Here is a pic of it on the dyno at Steeda pushing 625 rwhp and a pic of the 347 stroked and supercharged 302...
This was a very fast car, I sold it about 2 years ago... She was set up for auto-x but could pull high tens on radials at the strip...

Well sold her off about 2 1/2 years ago right before I got the 996... She was pushing over 90,000 miles and after the last rebuild was just sitting in the garage next to all the other toys; so it was off to the next project... Most don't think of the mustang as a good handling car but with the right mods on a smooth track that car can handle, just ask the guys at Steeda...
The 8 starts off a much better balanced ride than either the stang or the 996, so now after just a few mods is handling just about as good as the best out there... Now once I get the power up to were I want it; she will be a force to contend with...

It was fun with the viper and the Z06 guys, oh yeah not to mention the Porsche turbos (They used to get really upset...)

Yes the clear marker lights was something I did custom... They are mercedes parts, traced the outline of the cut outs from an slk then cut them into the fenders with a dremel and wired them up with the turn signals...

Another...
Here is a shot during an actual dyno run, she is pushing 12 psi of boost and had just put down 625 rwhp and 575 ft pounds... Ford Motorsport ceramic coated headers, high flow cats and flow masters, when she was at full song sounded like a NASCAR (very loud)... This was a 3rd gear pull with a 2.75 rear, the wheels are turning at about 140mph here...
