I now own RR's silver Formula. A local guy bought it and changed it to a heads/cam/nitrous car, and I picked it up off of him about 3 months ago.
The car has been completely gutted down to the shell, and basically everything has been replaced. I call it "Project Censored" for obvious reasons
Here is what it had done at Madman Racing:
Wolfe 10-point chrome moly cage (certified for 7.50 ET or slower)
cam-lock harnesses installed (both seats)
window net installed
Wolfe thru-floor subframe connectors
Billingsley fab 9" rearend w/ anti-roll bar (35-spline, gun drilled axles)
BMR torque arm, LCA's, panhard
BMR k-member with upper and lower A's
QA1 coil overs
Aerospace front brakes
Strange rear brakes
New brake lines and braided lines
Custom tranny x-member
TCI Dedenbear cased Powerglide installed
TCI torque converter (stalled for 900-1000 rwhp @ 3000 lbs)
TCI Outlaw shifter
TCI trans-brake
TCI tranny cooler
Thunder Racing line-lock kit
Billingsley ABS delete block
Madman manual front steering rack
Madman heater delete firewall plate
A/C system completely removed (including inside dash)
catback system removed
Power steering pump removed
airbags removed
ARP lug studs pressed into front hubs
Up next:
408ci iron block is being built by LME (9.0:1)
AFR 225 heads
Custom twin-turbo setup (twin 60mm) using 6.0L manifolds
Install Weld Aluma-Star wheels and tires (billet fronts)
Revise the interior with lightweight carpet and new seat covers.

The QMP silver camaro is in located in a northern chicago burb by me. It hasn't been driven in a long time to my knowledge. Ask 97M6Formula about it if you really need to know, his buddy owns it. I haven't seen the car in about 2 years.

Were they just a standardized connector used for the mustangs as well, or were they model specific for the 4th gens?

Any pics of it underneath? The vert floor pan is quite a bit different than Tony's formula and was curious of what was cut out to fit them. (I have a vert)
