Future Plans

This strut tower bar and brace feels delicious around corners and I still have yet to put my gt pp sway bars, which will be done once it is warmer.

Finally got some suspension upgrades, I got a set of pp shocks and struts which will be paired up with the pp springs and sway bars I got last year. Hurrah for take offs. Slowly making that pp v6.

Nice man, how did you get the Strut Tower Bar in without spacers? What did you use? Thanks

Did you have to lower your engine for that?

No I didn't lower my engine, though that is something I might do in the future. I used spacers to get the clearance I needed.

Just over a year with the 2016 3.7 and still enjoy daily driving it.
Mods so far: GT exhaust, steeda sub-frame braces and jacking rails.

Future: G-trac K member brace, GT take-off brakes and http://www.americanmuscle.com/mmd-decklid-panel-prepainted-1517.html
After the warranty is up will get a tune.

Have though about doing a pro-charger but that is a long way off.

Not trading this car for another mustang but depending on how ford does the new Bronco (2020) may be worth doing a trade.

Owned 87 Bronco with the 4.9L in-line 6, 290,000 miles and still pulled like the day it was new. Just an awesome truck engine. Wish i could have kept it but as a Michigan vehicle the body rotted away.

Today i watched more snow fall on her, it's 12 degrees out side. My jeep is just fine and loving it. It's a horrible love-hate relationship.

curious as to what you guys do with your stock parts that have been replaced?

currently have in my little storage

the headers,springs,shocks,struts,bellypan,spoiler,swaybars?,airbox/cai/,rotors, and calipers.

Kept everything but the stock exhaust. Everything else is stored and ready for reuse if necessary.

Did you use spacers on one side or both? What size spacers? It looks great and wanted to get a strut brace too. Where did you pick up the take off parts for the suspension? This frame desperately needs new sway bars.

Suspension parts I got off at the suspension marketplace forums.

I think it was .25in clearance you need for the strut brace.

Since the topic is future plans what do you all think is better should I spend $7000 on building the motor just to see what it does or should I swap out the 3.7 for a 5.0 or 5.2 motor I'm curious to see what you alls opinion would be.

I have also been pondering this same very question.

We all have our own opinions. But for me. I would build the motor and suspension. This engine is great and has potential. But you have to build it right. Got to go prochafger or twin turbo for that money. But hey the 5.0 is an amazing motor too. I supercharged my first v6 mustang, the ole 4.0L, never regretted it. This was 2007. That was a great car. For this one I am not sure yet. It's my DD and my last 2013 V6 I was very satisfied with just bolt one and a tune. The 3.7 is such a better engine. Depending on how long I own this one will determine if procharging will happen.
