Rich, Good pics!........I've read all the pro's and con's but I really like the Saleen set up!... Plus the stroker short block, what a dream buildup.....

GRAYPNY

I would have thought that there would have been more interest in this post? Ryan is going to have about 600 HP when thing is done.

I dig it! Did he blow the engine or is he just upgrading 'cause he's got the cash? I don't mean to sound sarcastic or anything, just an honest question. It should be a great setup for sure, either way!

GRAYPNY

He didn't blow the engine. Don't know if he has the cash or not, I didn't ask~

When are you getting your's back Tom?

tom281

Well let's hope he's got the cash LOL! Most people do the build after a major mishap, that's why I was asking......

I should have my car in my possession by 10a tomorrow morning, assuming I get outta Dallas sometime today.

GRAYPNY

Cool beans!!!!!

Don't reply or it will be your 2000th post Tom~

They should have had it running by now, it was close to go when I left at 3pm today. Pretty much just needed the throttle body, alternator, air intake and fluids to be ready to start the engine at that point.

Hey guys, We finished 99% this weekend. I had a slight mishap and broke a sensor on the passenger side head so I will have to get one from Ford. Also, my JDM tunes won't be arriving until Tuesday.
I am shooting for 15psi and around 550-575 rwhp on pump gas.
I really enjoyed all the company, we had a great time! Not to mention having 4 sweet mustangs in my backyard! I think that I caused Rich and Chad to further deplete their wallets and buy new stuff after they left.
I'll post up some updated pics later. Maybe I can talk Chad into bringing his video camera over for the startup later this week.
