Bradenton is the only 1/4 mile track nearby. Everybody here is going to tell you to go to Sam at Coastal. I've never been there...Rob at Ford Speed does everything for our street cars and race cars. I had a 2001 GT auto, and had Rob install a Precision Industries torque converter. It's pricey, but I recommend it. Did you already buy the gears? If not, I'd go with 4.10s. I did, and almost wished I went with 4.30s. I could still cruise the interstate at a decent RPM.
