My build what do you think

So I have a 2007 gt with about 28k on it and recently put a edlebrock e force sc on it with brenspeed tune So it ran great no problems. So I took it and had it put on a dyno to see what it was pushing. That's where it all went south. The motor blew out all sides, put holes in top bottom and both sides of the block. It looks like The previous owner never did a oil change on it it is all gunked up.

So now the good I decided to just build a good motor so hereis what I am putting in. Let me know you think and what rwhp you think we might get out of her. Shop has had it for about two months and should be done and on he dyno Monday or tue

Mmr stroked 5.0. The street fighter 900 I think
3v heads ported and polished match ported
Edlebrock shorty headers match ported
Comp cams stage 1 blower cams w/ new springs and cam phasers
Edlebrock e force sc with the 3.0 pulley about 11-12 psi w/ intercooler
Ford racing 80lb injectors
Shelby gt 500 fuel pump
Ford racing cold air intake
New everything in the motor did not reuse any parts from old motor

So what do you think. I can't wait to get her back.

Motor sounds great IMO, what are you doing for suspension to handle the added muscle?

Careful, my buddy broke a Hotchis sway bar. But then again, he drives his car like he's late for dinner everyday!!! I still caution people though.

I do what I can to prevent people from ending up as a red spot on the highway. Of course that involves left and right hand turns, I wouldn't expect you to know anything about that..

Nice, always nice to see another fan of running twisties!!! Straight lines are fun and all but carving into and mashing the pedal out of the turns is a lot more to be desired, IMO of course.

Trent, what you got for legs and shoes on that cobra of yours boy?

This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times... before the Empire...

Eibach sport springs. Knb (think that's the brand name. Something like that) fully adjustable shocks. Bbk camber caster plates.

Tires are 275-40/17 up front and 315-35/17 out back.

Nice tires man, I'm jelly of your wheels sir. I read somewhere that SVT states they never recommend anything but 255 up front and 275's in the back, your thoughts?
