That looks familiar! Here is ours before the car was finished. Side bar note this was 24 hours before it left for SEMA. You can’t see it very well from the photos but there is no front bumper, doors, deck lid and the hood along with numerous other things. The Vortech is installed and the Midwest Auto Gear cover is also installed and ready to go.

Nevermind, I see now that you have a dyno session scheduled.

You can barely see them, but they're the blue pieces on either side of the plenum cover.

Hey Brad, I think you should buy an FRPP Aluminum Driveshaft... They are currently made for the 2005 Mustang GT's and available.. This would allow slightly faster acceleration, and a faster trap speed running the 1/8th and 1/4 miles.. The price is $289.. A very good upgrade for the old SourceHorse..

Here is the unit..

http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_...rtKeyField=2980


Additional Ford Racing Performance Parts legal for Grand Am Cup:


http://www.fordracingparts.com/announcements/news15.asp

Although the driveshaft itself does not list the 2005 Mustang GT, it is listed under the section for the 2005 GT approved Grand AM parts.. I also talked directly to FRPP and the product is available... For the price, I think the gains are worth it..

Definately has a good ring to it... SourceHorses 450RWHP, Aluminum FRPP Driveshaft, approved for Grand AM Cup Racing!.. LOL!! Just something else to spice it up..

Hey Brad, I felt this deserved to be in this thread.. So people can understand that the SourceHorse if pushed, will put up some really good numbers...

http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?se...2&page_number=8

This should bring a huge smile to your face..

Dont get cocky around the SourceHorse!

We're not going to make anywhere near those numbers.

Woah, 150 dyno runs?? That should say something about the durability of the 4.6 V8.
