So as some of you may know Kevin Kesterson and myself started M2K Motorsports and have been entrusted by Jason Stevens (Mullet) to build one of the meanest Ford GT's roaming the streets of Houston with the help of John Mihovetz of AccuFab Racing. Jason and Kevin have spent a lot of time coming up with a plan that we think will be the meanest GT there is for the all around needs that Jason uses it for. It not only needs to be mean at the track but also have good street manners as well. When it is all said and done, we want Mullet's GT to be at the top of the field with all the Lambos, GTR's and other models that have been dominating all the events we all love to participate in. Here is a rundown of the upgrades we will be performing.

All the tuning duties will be handled by Shane Tecklenburg owner of Tuned by Shane T. who has calibrated some of the fastest cars around the world using MoTec.

Before posting this, I have discussed with DBK for approval and M2K Motorsports is working with the Ford GT Forum in becoming a sponsor with Dave's acceptance. If anyone in the Houston or even out of state area have any modifications or service on their Ford GT, I can promise you that M2K Motorsports and Kevin Kesterson have the knowledge to take care of you cars as if its one of our own. M2K has the ability to perform Twin Turbo upgrades either with the stock blower or custom design applications to fit ones needs.

Thanks again for everyone's support on this and we looking forward to working with many of you in the future and will keep updating as the build moves forward.

Kevin who worked at Hennesseys shop did 95% of the work on my car since I bought it 5+ years ago. Kevin is the only person I trust fully to work on my GT. Will be fun to get the car back and start the Mullet FGT 2.0 era.

Mark, you forgot to put in the specs the 400 shot of NOS. :)


If anyone here needs FGT work done I HIGHLY suggest you call up Kevin or Mark. They can do whatever you want done to your GT.

This is exciting. I have hoped to see a fully built car compete in the roll racing events. Good luck Mullet. Looking forward to the results.

All I can say is WOW!!!

Good luck with the build, and hope to see the car at a future Rally.

In-progress pictures of internal parts that we'll never get to see would be great.

One other idea to consider: Put ceramic thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) on the piston tops, valve surfaces and inside of the combustion chamber, the exhaust port, and the inside and outside of the exhaust manifold or headers. Many race teams use this technique to cut down on heat transfer into the engine and increase exhaust velocity. This increases turbocharger efficiency too. Porsche air-cooled 911's used a TBC exhaust port during the last ten years or so of the air-cooled engine. It greatly reduces the heat transfer to the head. I don't know if they still use it in the water-cooled 911 engines. If I ever build a super-duper engine for my FGT, or my old 1973 911, or any other car, I will use this technology.

The fins on the crossover, are they for damping vibration Like droning? I am guessing they are too close to the point of exhaust exit for heat dissipation.

That looks like an expansion joint to me.
