Default 2000 Mustang GT w/ Forged Mach 1 Motor

I bought this car from a good friend of mine in November of 2006 as a daily driver. It has been a great/fun car but I am now looking to get a C5 for a D.D. and this car must go first.

It's a 2000 GT with a built Mach 1 motor. My buddy bought the car with 44k, sold it to me with 77k on it and it now has 85k on it. The motor now has 8k on it.

The engine was built for nitrous and was set up to handle up to a 250 shot. It was professionally built by Billy @ MSX, and has never failed me. When I bought the car, it had never been sprayed, and came with a NEW and IN THE BOX Cold Fusion Direct Port system. I installed the system, (100hp jets) along with a FPSS, heater, purge, and WOT switch. I ran 3 bottles through it, and it was nice, but I am hooked on the power of my blown LT1, so I haven't used the spray since. I can sell the car with or without the kit. Car gets 20mpg freeway and averages 16mpg.

Options
-------------------
A/C
Power windows/locks
Mach 460 stereo and speakers
CD and tape player
Grey Leather
5 speed


Engine
----------------------
Manley forged H-beam rods
Manley forged pistons (11:1 compression)
SHM micropolished race prepped crank
File fit Manley rings
Federal Mogul bearings
Ported and Polished 03/04 Mach 1 heads
Ported and Polished Mach 1 upper and lower intake
Billet aluminum upper intake spacer
ARP head studs, main studs and rod bolts
03 Cobra valve covers
K&N air filter
Lightning 90mm MAF
36lb injectors
Cobra oil pump with billet gears
Amazon Tuning solutions (Rick) mail order tune

Looks
-------------------------
VIS Carbon Fiber 4" Cowl Carbon Fiber hood
Smoked headlights
Tinted windows 5% Rear, 30% sides
Ford Racing C-Springs
Spoiler moved back
03 Cobra wheels with nearly new tires
MACH 1 chin spoiler
MACH 1 grill delete

Interior
-------------------
NEW lightweight bucket seats, with inserts covered in torch red vinyl that match the car perfectly
I also color-matched the shifter console and stereo trim pieces
White face gauge overlays
Autometer A-pillar oil pressure and water temp gauges(have never been hooked up)
VERY clean interior, no rips/tears anywhere
Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter

Exhaust
------------------
Mac Off-Road H and stock H are both included (Off-Road is currently on)
2 chamber flowmasters
3 1/2" rolled stainless steel tips
Car sounds AMAZING

Others
-----------------------------
Comes with SCT Xcalibrator 2
Possibly comes with Cold Fusion DP kit depending on buyer
FRPP 4.10 gears
Centerforce Dual Friction clutch (4k miles)
New Transmission with D&D performance kit, still under warranty
Drilled and slotted rotors, Hawk HPS pads (2k miles)

The Bad
---------------------------
Car has a small blemish on the rear bumper (can be seen in the picture) This was there when I bought it
A/C works perfectly, but the A/C compressor makes a little noise. I just ordered a new one from Summit, and will install it when it arrives.

I'm sure I am probably forgetting some things. Car is located in Turlock, CA and is available for inspection any time. Feel free to PM me with any questions. If you would like me to take a certain picture for you, I can most likely have it to you within a day. $12,500

I would consider it if you were about 2,000 miles closer, but I really don't have that kind of spare time on my hands! There is always auto transport!

ur car has a cobra motor, sorry to burst ur bubble, mach1 motors are not built by svt at all, mach1 motors also have different valve covers(which can be changed i know) everything about that motor screams "i am a cobra motor!" except the intake it is a true mach1 intake lol! so it could be a stock 99" 9:01compression 180k cobra motor with the forged internals(cobras motor are forged) ?mach motors have 10:01 compression non forged internals but will still haul *** and both are aluminum blocks

LOL! Get out of this thread until you know what you are talking about! Read the original post, It is an all forged 03 Mach 1 motor, with 03 Cobra valve covers. This motor was built by hand, here in Turlock @ MSX, specially for this car. So please, stop talking out of your ***, about things you know nothing about, and move on.

Because I LIKE the cobra valve covers and I think they look better than Mach 1 valve covers thats why! Are you going to say that the car MUST be a cobra because there are cobra wheels on it? I will tell you ahead of time, I LIKE the cobra wheels and that's why those are on there as well. The rediculous questions you've posed thus far all could've been answered by reading the original post, which shows EXACTLY what has been done to the car. If you want to continue with your speculations about what you think may or may not be, take it to PM's.

BTW, Anyone local is MORE than welcome to stop by and inspect/test drive, etc. This car is extremely nice, and holds NO dissapointments.

LOL Well I got what I needed out of it and I hope he does too. He told me he took the DP kit and the ORH off but other than that it's still the same. I'm thinkin' he should at least copy and paste my ad to his so he's got some details of all the mods, especially since the car books around 11k. It's definitely a sweet car though.
