Hey, welcome and nice ride. I'm a fan of some of the Fords as well, Love the GT500, Super Snake and Ford GT. But I own a Camaro and plan to get a SS soon. Also at some point a Shelby GT500.

Can't hate on a nice car like that one. I'm a blue oval fan too, but give the General a try, and you'll probably like it! Welcome!

well mods as today are:

298 livernois stroker motor 9.0:1 compression (stock is 9.6
Ported and polished heads
stage4 comp cams
tci3000 stall converter
4.10 gears
UPD
Cmdp
Jlt CAI
o/r X pipe
pypes m780 dumps
15" weld draglites
28x10.5x15 M/T Slicks

on motor my best pass on the 1/8 mile was 7.8 @ 87.5mph
i added a wet nitrous kit for like a month, i put a 100 shot but i did not tune the car, it was running like crap and i was running on 275/40/17 M/T and traction was a joke when i prayed, so i got rid of the 17"s and the wet kit. best pass was 7.5 @ 89mph but i wasnt even able to load the converter.

tomorrow i'll add a 175 dry shot, gt500 T/B, dual ford gt fuel pumps, Kb Bap and long tube headers, and get the car tuned again.

please dont ask me about dyno sheet becuase i havent dyno it yet. i like to get the car tuned on the street and the track. next time it gets tune it would have to be on the dyno and i'll post numbers

Welcome to the site and nice looking AND running GT you have there.

But for the love of God paint that God awful front spoiler to match the car, PLEASE.

Your Mustang looks mean. I am not a hater and I like Mustangs. A couple of years ago when I was 16 and at the age of deciding what type of car was for me, I almost got a Mustang (loved 'em, still do) but I ended up getting a 1988 Camaro for a great project. Been a big-time Camaro guy since...
