I bought the Bullitt about a year ago, the biggest selling point was it already had a Vortech S2 and it was in decent condition. When I bought it, it had a noticeable tick, which I thought was an exhaust leak. For $5k I thought it was a good risk to buy. I initially bought long tube headers thinking the stock exhaust manifolds were leaking, but after I got it back from the exhaust shop the tick was still there. Took it to a local shop after buying a new timing chain set, but this didn't fix the problem either. So it was time for a rebuild.

I brought the Bullitt to Modern performance here in Glendale AZ for the work. Here's what the Stang has now:

- MMR forged kit w/forged Manley Pistons & Rods
- Comp Cams Stage 3 Xtreme 270 cams
- 42lb injectors
- 90mm Lightning MAF
- BBK dual 65mm throttle body
- Vortech V2 supercharger
- front mounted intercooler w/3" piping
- Hedman long tube headers
- O/R x-pipe
- Magnaflow mufflers
- 325 Aeromotive fuel pump
- McLeod Street extreme clutch
- Ford racing aluminum driveshaft
- Ford racing 3.73 gears
- BMR 1" lowering springs
- FR500 17x9 275/40/17 NittoNT555 / 17x10.5 305/35/17 Toyo Proxes TQ drag radials

It put down 464 rwhp & 409 rwtq

I took it to the track a few weeks back and ran a 12.8 @ 113 mph. It has been about 12 years since I've ran & need to work on my launch, but overall it felt great!

I'm contemplating installing a line lock to help my launch. Also need to replace the rear control arms.

Thank you, it is a 20 footer right now, it needs some body and paint work to look it's best, but that will have to wait until next year.

I also have swapped out the stock Bullitt interior which was tore up with a nice set out of a 03 Mach 1.

Nice work! You've taken my favorite SN95 (bullitt) and put the best appearance parts on it (cobra bumper, fr500 wheels, Mach 1 seats) with the power to back it up. Keep us posted!

Thank you! At the track now, but it's 100 degrees here so probably won't get good times, but the practice is always needed!
