So I got the Whipple installed and so far I could not be any happier with it. Drives just like stock down low and is frightening when you get on it. It is constantly pulling and has a very smooth power band. I can't wait to see what it looks like on the dyno graph and after that the track.

Thanks man. I got to really see what kind of animal she was today against a Hellcat, and she definitely delivered!

Just wanted to do some updating on my build thread. I went to a Ford car show last week that had about 60 cars, which was not a lot due to some suspect weather, but nevertheless I won an award for "Best Engine," which being my first car award ever I was pretty proud of.

I also have some BMR Toe rods that need installing and I am about to pull the trigger either on some drag radials or some BMR Sway bars and end links. Oh the problems of Black Friday. :headbang:

I have had the car just over 10 months and just hit the 5,000 miles mark, with 1,200 coming in the first two weeks of owning the car and 500 coming in the last two weeks since strapping on the Whipple. :D It's hard to not want to drive it.

Went on a cruise yesterday with a few members from here. Big thanks to Altjx for shooting these short clips.

Just spent an hour reading your whole thread. Awesome build my man! When you dipped your emblems, did you remove them or do them on the car. I was gonna hit up big worm, but if I can save $100 plus by dipping, I will.

Thank you man I appreciate that. Plasti dip is the way to go. Check out these pics I am about to post, where you can see the emblem pretty good and it's holding up great. I left them on the car. Tape a box around the emblem and leave about an inch space that way when you peel it off, it peels right around the edges of the emblem and comes off super clean. There's a bunch of videos showing how to do this method. Also, to peel it out of those tight spots in between the emblem I used a toothpick to roll the plasti dip out of there. It's super easy. Thanks for the compliments on my build. I've never been able to build a car like this and it has been a blast. :thumbsup:
