Phil, you've got some steep goals, but you're in a good position to get there that's for sure.

Datzcool I've been in touch with alot of people, and am not at will to say who about what.

I don't think I'll get it on the bumper, but we'll cross that bridge. I got no problem putting sissy sticks on the car

That car is light enough to do some damage. SYA bars are cheap.

I've given up with this peace of junk ford i have. This winter we are putting an ls6 out of an 04 zo6 in my 2000 mustang. If all goes well we are going to fab the 66mm turbo kit that is on the car now to fit the ls6.

If you wanna go fast you have to go chevy.

i agree, u save more weight, less hassle of an install, dont need a cutoff switch, and will help keep u from riding the bumper... no brainer in my eyes, thats one mod im doing this season also...
