That is true, but going through Kevin Casey or looking at some of the reputable shops selling parts through ebay, it can still be had for less than $1k and it's a great deal. Wheel clearance is of course the big issue here, and if you want to keep the stock 17's it sounds like your better off with the baer 14 inch rotors and pads.

Definently go through Kevin Casey, on ebay the lowest I have seen in the past week is the $1400 range. I believe he can beat that price.
I did however find the kit for $899.99 check it out here, scroll down

His "Hot Sheets" pricing for that kit aren't close to that price. Kar Kraft never updated their website it appears, but they might honor that price. That price listed was the norm before Ford/FRPP increased the price of the GT500 BBK due to demand.

I just did a quick search on this kit, and there's 1 out there on Ebay for $899. The Ebay kit didn't mention any lines, but Kar Kraft does. I'm looking for a kit with SS lines.

yes...spoke to clevparts..
price on gt500 brakes is up to $1200-1400 range now.
and clevparts told me its had very weird fitment clearance issues.
so...i guess this option is out for me now too...
its seems like the baer 14" upgrade with stock calipers is a very good cost effective option at $600 range....

I put the Wilwood brakes on my car and absolutly love them. 14 x 1.5 with the 6 piston caliper FTW. Good price great quality and inexpensive replacement pads and rotors. Keep in mind its not just the initial cost but maintenance also.
Good luck with whatever you get!
