Just wondering why you say that? Im pretty sure its owned by a guy.


Anyway, it good to see such a good turn out.....but why not spend all that money on a GT. He would have MUCH more power and sound a lot better. Oh well to each his own....

Which is true...but if you wreck then they give you another v6. Thats even if you got the full coverage. ANyway, its still very impressive.

Unless your policy says "void if power adder installed." -- and a lot of them do.

well, that was kinda my question- it looks like he either shortened it up or deleted it. I'd like a shorter one if that's what he did but i don't want to get rid of it cuz mine still works fine

I cant imagine doing all the work and modding all that stuff, and building and stroking the enire motor. All to only get 425rwhp, it would be a shotgun to the face for me. But i guess it was worth it for him.

My first insurance company, before the Stang, had a policy like that. I told them to go screw themselves when I got the Stang. They tried to screw me, and my entire family over. They currently have four cars on a policy, three with full coverage, for a little over $1,000 every six months. One of the cars is an 04 GT. The old company was wanting about $5,000 every six months without the GT.

The old company was Farm Bureau, by the way. Current is Nationwide.


That is a nice V6. I would've done a turbo setup instead. Shifters a tad bit strange .

Give it credit for what it is, it's an awesome V6. I'm sure it would destroy 90% of the people on this board. But then again, there is a reason why I sold my V6 and got a 5.0
