What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[2morrow]

Said goodbye to a local car friend with a moment of noise at his celebration of life. Our hearts go out to his young family. Race in Peace.

I need to order and do the same.

She was lonely so I got her a male friend a couple of days ago. I didn’t set out to have twins of sorts but I like it.

Well they're definitely not identical twins

That's a decent color matching blues for being from 2 different brands. Thought it was an F150 at first

Nice cloudy day, so I gave her a 2 bucket wash. Yesterday I installed the Vorshlag rear tow hook (ran out of time to install the front hook, will tackle that another day).

I'll get pictures later once I get all the bolts torqued down, but today I "finished" up the install of the BMR Street K-Member. Holy shit is it an improvement space-wise over the stock one. Definitely lighter as well. Looking forward to an alignment later this week or next

So much room for activities!

Here’s the CJPP video, it’s pretty spot on IMO. I would assume the GT350R is very similar, except for maybe how the fender and bumper attach.

Definitely on my list this summer, along with a PP2 esque lip install....

Do you have Long Tube headers? My Passenger side header is hitting the frame since the BMR K-Member install.

I talked to Glenn @ BMR and he sent me red urethane bushings and 1/4" aluminum bushings. Should have them tomorrow.

The BMR K-Member lowers the motor a 1/2" which was just enough to lose the clearance from the headers. He sent me a diagram on how to stack the spacers so it moves the engine back up in the stock location.

Push the button, it looks cool!

Well so much for that! I’ll look and see if somebody else has them. But I definitely want the Ford part.

Maybe check with Benny @LevittownFordParts they might have them in stock. That’s where mine came from.

Reach out to Levittown, either on the forums or via email. They will give you a solid ETA.

Finally got my new wheels and tires installed!

Satin Bronze SVE Drifts wrapped in 285/35/19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 A/S.

Celebrated with matching beer

(no time for a detail this weekend so don't judge me lol)

I do. I didn't have a problem with my headers hitting the frame. The only immediate issue I saw was the drivers side header potentially contacting my steering shaft. I had some extra spacers prepped if that was the case. I have the BMR motor mounts and motors brackets as well (the mods snowballed real quick and ended with the K-member...). The BMR brackets also lower the engine a bit, so combined with the K-member, the extra spacers helped clear everything

Well that is great news. I got more work ahead of me, the vibration is awful. I'll check header bolts and other exhaust stuff while I"m under there.
