Truck motor is 10.5:1 compression and Mustang is 9.5:1
Thinking about sending the rear saleen wheels to get widened to 9.5" up from 7.5" I know it will severely impact their resale value, that being said I think I will keep them permanently because only 500 sets were ever made. It would look much better with the 9.5" as opposed to the 7.5".
Speedlines that are a 1 piece 17x7.5 for all four rims, I initially thought they were sterns till I saw made in Italy stamped on back of the rims.
My buddy had to be a separate wiring harness for the body to control all of the lights and blinkers and all the other stuff...you made it to this point yet or even heard about it?all the wiring is pulled out that is no longer is needed, the hydroboost setup is now installed K member is on backorder, my blower sold for 1500. I am now contemplating on what to do for gauges, getting a Florida5.0 cluster or keep the Saleen white face gauges and have them all fixed. They want to re use the stock gauges and get rid of most of the aftermarket ones and use one of the multi ones that plug into the ecu and give multiple readings might just do that. I will be going down monday so I will make sure I take pics this time of the progress!!
thanks as for the rims I am pretty sure that the 4 lug ones I have are up there on the rarity chart, they were only made aviable for a few years through a catalog. They were made by speedline for Saleen. If I was to sell them I could easily buy a set of 4 new rims and use extra money towards the build.You're prolly OK on the wheels. Your Saleens are 4 lug. The rare Saleen wheels are 5 lug. You can probably just buy the 4 lug ones as 9" or 10" for cheap.
They run like $130/wheel.
Have not heard of it but the place Im having the work done at mentioned how they were re wiring certain things etc.
yea I think at one point these were re painted but on the back of the spokes it says speedline made in italy and has the date stamped on them etc ill post up some pics when i go down to look at it on monday and you can compare them to the catalog you have. I would love to know if they are what I was told they were.Gotcha It's hard to tell from the pics but all Speedlines I've ever seen had the Speedline and Saleen logos IIRC.
I actually had the old Saleen performance catalog which had that stuff. I'll see if they're in there.
