Hey Guys,

I'm new to the forum, but not new to the Mustang world. My 1st car was a '69 Mustang coupe when I was 16 & have had the Mustang bug ever since! To have a car to drive at 16, I had to learn how to keep it going and restore it, people think when I say I had a 69 Mustang at 16, my parents must have been rich, but far from it, they weren't & it was a piece of sh*t! It at least was a factory 302 car lol I've owned a 69, 99 GT, 94 GT vert & 01 GT (in that order), with my current Stang being a '01 Bullitt DHG #1661. I also currently own a White 1994 F150 Lightning #2909.

I bought the Bullitt last year, with what I thought was a timing chain tensioner issue, but turned out to be a cracked crankshaft. It's currently in the shop getting the motor rebuilt with forged internals to handle the Vortech. I should be getting it back by the end of next week! I can't wait

Here's a couple of pics of my projects.

My motor is put together! Stopped by the shop today to pick up my intake and timing cover to paint to match the valve covers I painted. Here's pics of how it sits today

Thanks! I'll find out what it puts down once it's dynoed tuned. Modern performance here in Glendale is doing the work. They're estimating 450-475, so we'll see!

It's been awhile since I posted and wanted to provide an update:

The Bullitt is back on the road, just had it back on the dyno this afternoon and it's putting down 464HP & 409TQ.
