OH MY LORD!!!!! I can't even begin to fatham the power this car will have. Can you imagine pulling up at a stop lights with this car? Talk about a total stealth fighter. People would think its a normal GT Mustang or, with its new face, a standard Shelby. They'd have no idea. Can't wait to see some finished pics. Can someone keep updatiing this post, when more pics become available?

They have a Cardomain site, but it hasn't been updated in quite a while http://www.cardomain.com/ride/730333

It sounds good on paper, but lets look at the facts.

V12 output:
460hp
400 ft-lbs.

It probally weighs similar to the 5.4 GT500 motor, with less power, albiet N/A vs Blown.

I dunno man, sounds fun but, I dont really see the point, unless they put a pair of turbos or a blower on there.

It wasn't going to be a stock V12 they said their goal was around 600 hp N/A

I emailed these guys a few months ago. They told me there were still working on it but progress was slow. They've had a bunch of other stuff in the works that put this on the back burner. They said they were hoping for sema this year.

I remember a company was going to try to do this for SEMA last year. I wonder if this is them?

Granted, the project would be a pretty big bite for even the most capable of mouths.

Its probably not so much an engine fitment issue, as (I was thinking when I first posted) it is getting electronics to properly communicate. Of course, in a late realization--I'll blame it on the percocet-- I just made the connection that there is no stock instrumentation to work with (as there is no instrumentation at all). So, with enough time and money I'm sure the pace will pick up as the project moves up in priority.
