September ROTM!! Mike93SVT
Mike93SVT
wow, that's awesome. basically i had been playing with mustangs for about 10 years doing the normal bolt ons and drooling on the forums. finally decided that i wanted to build the car i dreamed of, no matter how long it took. i found a great car while in iraq and my wife went and bought it. i came home and stripped it down after only driving it once around town. it went to the chassis shop and got more done that originally planned. that was the only time it left the garage until it drove this year (took 2 years).
what was supposed to be a clean street car that could one day run 10's on pump gas turned into a serious build. took longer than expected and obviously more expensive. i had to seriously step up my learning and knowledge to accomplish it but i'm extremely happy with the results. the car is a blast to drive right now but i still want to drive to the track in full street trim, air the tires down and knock down some 10.40 passes and drive home. one day i'll step that goal up to 9's. but gotta take baby steps. this spring the goal is 11.70's and we'll go from there
it's a 95 GT and was bone stock, one owner when i bought it
now boasts:
10pt chromoly cage with swingouts
thru the floor sub frames
team z mini tub
aluminum trunk pan and rear seat delete
built 8.8 with 9in ends
strange 33 spline axles
strange spool
4.10 gears
all team z front and rear suspension
strange coil overs on all four corners
sits on billet specialties street lites
15x12 with 325/50 et streets
15x4.5 and kuhmo front runners
a1000 pump with teflon lines (supports over 1k hp with pump upgrade)
megasquirt ecu (great piece)
tremec 3550 trans and king cobra clutch
stock 302 shortblock
twisted wedge heads
custom cam from Bullet Cams
victor efi intake
42lb injectors (blower soon)
bbk longtubes
custom made exhaust
custom CAI
initial dyno made 290hp and 290tq uncorrected at 6,500ft elevation. corrected was 346hp at sea level
unfortunately i haven't had time to take better pics. i have a handful of winter upgrades to knock out like stepping up to 1 3/4 longtubes, 3in exhaust including tailpipes (dumps are too loud cruising), better clutch, and a 90mm throttle body. come spring i plan to spend plenty of time at the track and maximize this combo into the 11.70 range until adding the supercharger. i'm contemplating building my own eaton m122 setup.
