Default Sold The V, Now It's Replacement!

As some of you know, I sold the Cadillac two weeks ago. I wasn't daily driving it anymore and I just always had the diff in the back of my mind. I also knew at almost 70k miles it was about time to start needing stuff, clutch, radiator etc. I also wanted something just raw and stupid fast and I found exactly what I wanted. Had a good time visiting the V section and I'll still be around but just wanted to show you guys the new car. Bought it built cause I'm tired of getting bent over when it's time to sell. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. 22k miles on body and 5k on the built motor, built t56 and built solid rear.

Still think it's a long shot from the LSX Stang, but oh well.

I knew a guy that had a similuar setup. He went through multiple motors running it hard because it would run so hot from the turbo.

Personal preference, no need for luxury in a second vehicle for me. Need something to beat on that will take it.

Lol I'm dying to take some good pictures and videos, but md had the great idea of pre salting the roads for the snow and Now its not even going to snow.

Btw i forgot how nice it is to drive a car that puts the power down so solidly, no play in the shifter, and just really feel involved in what the car does. Solid rear ftw

Negative, there is a crossover pipe under the car that merges with the other manifold into the turbo. I have more pictures I'll post later. Turbo is fully spooled at 4k rpm.
