Big Dave's Sonic Blue Mustang Thread
its really not worth it to swap the other heads onto this block, its much better to find a complete motor and swap it in. then you'll have the joy of figuring out how to wire it :P
The new edge GTs are inbetween 3200-3300 lbs, I was estimating around 3200lbs since the coyote is slightly heavier then the 3v and the 6speed transmission might be a bit heavier too.
But that being said you prob could work it to end up around 3100lbs if you do other things like lighter k-member and aluminum driveshaft and stuff.
3100lbs and 412hp...

what's everyone's opinion on this?

I wanna get letter inserts, so I suppose I'd have to go with black, but it wouldnt look right. I do have an idea for what I wanna do with the letters though.

not 100% sure at this point. I'm thinking Cobra Bumper and Fogs, Mach 1 hood and shaker, and bullitt/mach1 C pillars. I dont want it to be flashy, just nasty and mean, really aggressive. I still haven't figured out which wheels I want. I'm thinking non-chrome cobras, but at the same time I want something flashy. Idk.
I might order the above part and the lettering, and stick them on there with painters tape to see how they look together. I've also thought about putting a pinstripe outline on the letters, but I'm going to get some super thin painters tape to try that bit out.

The front end sounds awesome. If that's what you have in mind, I would suggest getting black lettering and giving the blackout a shot; IMO, the outlining the letter will not be enough to balance out the front. As far as the rims, go a little flashy since everything else will be on the subtle-ish side. I think any rim in anthracite would be bad ***.

I've thought about getting black chrome Saleens, but for me the spokes are just not quite wide enough.
Also, I gotta find some cobra mirrors. Doesnt matter the color, I'm going to repaint the whole car eventually anyhow. I just dont wanna pay $400 for a new pair.

and I really like the 10th anny cobras
either way, wheels are for the next tire change, so I've got a while to figure it out
