Man that is awesome!

A lot of these hard core track guy's will give you crap but just my 2 cents..............You have a bad a$$ car.

Also, Why would the rear blow? Is it not suppose to be bullet proof? If not then I wasted 2 grand on it

Go dominate the 1/4 mile now

You could build a civic to beat it for less, but who cares. These arguments are just a pissing contest.

If weight were an issue, and I doubt it is, and there was a concern about the additional weight on the front end, then stiffer springs and matching shocks would help rather than additional negative camber. Actually, on a car with this much power, I would want the biggest contact patch under braking that I could get.

Good luck with the SC! This thing is going to be a monster.

Oh, and it won't be as cool as a BOSS!!

I dunno, whatever it costs to put a ported/modded M122, whipple, TVS, et al on and an overdrive pulley...

The beauty of a GT500 is in the stuff you dont have to worry about like grenading the clutch, MT82 or Torsen and having a cooling system that can handle 700+ hp in blistering heat and so on.

The roadrunner can make serious power for sure and Ford may have even envisioned people making stupid power on the motor (like your 800+ at the crank) but one thing is for sure, the rest of your car was screwed together with 444hp in mind.
