Doc, you're going to need wings for all the power you've harnessed.

Doc:
When you do it, you do it right! That is some serious Detroit iron.
BTW, I bet you can count on one hand the amount of 4 spd Cyclones out there.

This one was a 3 on the tree initially........and it had a 351C where the Roush 427 IR sits now. Bought it because my folks had the same color Montego when I was born. When I drove this one to their house, they couldn't believe it. It was their first new car purchase after immigrating to the US....it was an emotional day.

That's a great story. Pretty cool. Non car people just don't get the emotional attachment cars can have, especially in a country like America where cars gave people a chance to be mobile and pursue better economic circumstances.

Awesome numbers from just a tune.

Get ready to hook. On the Ford Gt I have a hard time spinning in first. I am so afraid of breaking stuff I put the other rims back on. lol

What tires are you running on the FGT? WIth my Hoosier A6's, traction is still an issue when boost hits.

With the opposite weight distribution, I doubt the Shelby will have the problem you noted.

Thank you Sanjay. At least your car worked out as planned for me, minus the ton's of crazy I am mired in during this trip.:facepalm:
