Bump: Just wanted to post up the condensed version of this build that I recently posted on Forzamotorsport.net. It contains all of the update posts from this thread without all the comments.
Check it out here: http://forums.forzamotorsport.net/bl...1/2211313.aspx
Hope this makes it easier for those of you not willing to wade through 70 + pages for the meat of the build!
Thanks,

Got the last floor bars cut and started the welding process on the floor, I guess I am 50% done. I figured I'd weld the bottom first since its the hardest.
New doors just arrived.... 4-5# per door carbon fiber, getting lexan windows. The old doors were 184# for the set.

Exhaust... We just picked up the car for our new project and would love some feedback. The car is a 2000 Ford Mustang V6 auto with just over 100k. Its a single owner car, never seen a fender bender and is perfect in every way. Stole it for $400. 
The swap... We're going to tear the car down to just the unibody and remove everything thats non essential for a fun street/strip car. Its going to recieve an 6.0 iron truck block stuffed with forged internals(w2w Mahle boost pistons/Pro-mod rods and 4340 4" crank) and topped with some decent heads. Custom made 1.75" headers will run to either an S95 or Precisino turbo 96mm with a 5" downpipe and twin tial 44mm gates. Transmission will be a powerglide with a dedenbear case and 1.80 straight cut gears, rear will be a 9" with ~3.50 gears. Outside will get a VFN 5" cowl hood similar to John Urist's mustang without the scoops and a 12" sheetmetal wing on the rear with chute. Inside will recieve a couple of race seats probably kirkey or so, some carbon fiber parts on the dash filled with autometer guages. Wolfe racecraft 10 point cage with window net, sub frame connectors will finish the interior. Dash will be stripped as much as possible but still leaving a factory appearance and a air to water IC will be hidden behind the dash. Street duties will be on a set of CCW 500s while at the track we'll use Weld aluma stars with 30 x 10.5" slicks and skinnies up front. Target weight will be around 2800lbs. How does that sound?
The corvette will probably get a new milder motor to enjoy the sunny summer days.
