side skirts = ok

all the stock GT's around were I live have 80,000 mile plus and no way. This car has potential, Brembo brakes , hood, rims, low miles... its just the weird body kit has to go, simple fix....

true true, I guess replacing a couple body panels is a small price to pay for all the other good stuff that came with it.

 

[whyask]

ya the tires and rims were a nice a plus 315/35/18 out the rear and 265/40/18 in the front, 13" brembos in the front and cross drilled and slotted in the rear as well. The hood is real carbon fiber and so is the wing. The engine is what I love , STOCK.... , so plans for a Vortech are in the works...whats you opions on the KB 2.2 PROS and CONS....

2.2 isnt being produced anymore. it is a 2.6 now

well, for a stock shortblock I would say the new KB 2.1L (replaced the 1.7) would be more than enough, and you would easily be at 400rwhp. Not sure on the pricing though. I would look into a Novi 2000 Mongoose kit, that 6K would more than cover it

just don't get greedy unless you can afford to shell out the $$ for a built shortblock. Make sure your tune is dead on or your stock motor won't last too long

 

[Dope 97GT]

sell the parts you don't like. I'm sure there is someone that will pay $$$ for them.

I think mustangray is in the position to take the kit of your hands

 

[whyask]

hahaha, well why not do it right, What would I need for a built tough block, so if later in the future I do get greedy I wont kill my block, ( do it right the first time less exspensive later down the road) Im looking at by next year 600hp range....

 

[AmBo]

No your not.

Not unless you have SERIOUS cash to drop into the stang. 600rwhp with a 2V is VERY VERY difficult. May the LS1 gods be with you.

charger and built bottom end good cams and nos ??? MAYBY

 

[mity2]

i got the sides and back. i think it can look good if done right. i think i will replace the sides in the far future but the back stays.....i think it looks bad ass. i will get rid of the front clip in exchange for the stage 3 roush, and i will pull the wing.

i will do all this at the same time after i drop the car. it will just br too hard to get on lifts. dont know how you roush guys do it. pita!

anyway, i think it looks good more so in person.
