So I finally got my Paperweight running again. for how long? god only knows. So I decided to take some pictures of the Roush before I send it into hibernation until the new motor.

Spent all day today detailing it, finally got it looking flawless again... Also lowered the car down a little bit more than previously, about 1/2"-3/4" in the rear. Sits perfectly in my eyes. The car is certainly a work in progress to say the least... thanks for looking!

Love the car, hate the interior color.

Thanks man! It grows on you when you own it. I didn't buy the car for the interior, I bought it for it's capabilities haha.

Looks great man. Need moar low.

Haha thanks dude. If I go any lower I'll cut the tires in the rear. I'll be rolling the fenders once it's no longer a DD then I will be slamming it down even further.

Looks sick bro. Got any engine bay shots? I'm very intrigued by the 5.0 you got in there and also noticed you said there's a new motor coming in the future? Im assuming the 5.0 currently in there is a coyote? If so, why going for a new engine? Lol, lots of questions I know...just very interested. Sick whip again man, very jealous. :headbang:

I've got no recent shots, but it just looks like a stock 4.6, I've done very little aesthetically to the motor. The 5.0 in there is actually just a 4.6 with a 5.0L Livernois Stroker Rotating Assembly. Going for a new engine because I want higher compression, less weight (aluminum block). Besides I want to keep this block as a back up if I ever do have a failure. Thanks for the compliments!

Oh, very cool man. Already got the new engine picked out?

new engine is at the machine shop as we speak. I'll be starting a thread on it as soon as I get it back and start assembling it.

i love the lighter front end of the aluminum block. im sure you will. although i had to go to stiffer coil over springs for speed bumps and pot hole clearance. my oil pan was taking a dosage of abuse.
