You have to use a tubular k member to get them to fit. Even with the tubular k it's better to put the headers and piping on with the k-member off.

Perhaps the front-end weight gain will be a wash since you are getting the K-member.

black91gt5.0 was thinking you had a 5.0, whats funny it I'm gonna run 20-22 lbs on my stock motor (with my fingers crossed of course) I'm shooting for 600 to the wheels.

Hey jdk it's too bad you won't be able to beat any bikes even if you have a better power to weight ratio since it goes against the laws of relativity huh?

I won't be able to beat any bikes or hondas , because neither can lose!


I may run a 302 stroker if something "happens" to my 4.6

Yup, always will be slow too

Heres some info for the paint.. You should be able to do your car with like 3,000 touch up bottles


Mystic's Paint Code is LF and the Ford Part Number for the bottle of touch-up paint is ALBZ-19500-6806A. This may not be available from dealers any longer. If you need some call SVT at 1-800-FORD-SVT.

Yeah that motor is pretty much indestructable, I don't think you'll be blowing that thing up any time soon.

jdk and ProchargerCobra should race when it's all done.

I think it would be a great race.

JDK will be running 9's when he's done but the race will be enjoyable none the less.
