Looks like they chose to do a dash swap vs. getting all the stock mustang gauges to work with the LS3.

pull the engine out and crush it, before it has a chance to breed with any thing else.

Look at the wheels

Are they forgelines? I don't think many people do open lugs

Looks a bit like a GA3 or GTD1 wheel
