Hey Dennis.... 1st off your build is Pioneering and I just want to thank you for kicking in doors for future builders like myself by documenting your experiences. I just purchased my GT350 and want to build an indestructible NA motor with a primary goal of longevity and reliability and a secondary goal of making more power. I know that your engine was built with the specific intent to boost it... but what do you think a build like yours without the blower would be like?? would it be a total dog? Would you recommend a completely different direction for NA purposes. All others feel free to chime in as well with what you think about a build like Dennis has without a blower.
[MENTION=32586]jenkinsinc[/MENTION] Thank you very much and congratulations on your new GT350 :cheers: I'm a firm believer in building your motor to be indestructible especially if you plan on pushing it to the limits. That being said I know a friend of mine who has a few GT350R's and recedntly had one rebuilt with all forged internals and a few upgraded components to ensure he can push the car as hard as he wants with the peace of mind that the motor will handle it. I would recommend sending an email to Will at RPG who built my motor and did my friends motor as well. You can reach him at [email protected] :thumbsup:

Actually I have the car up for sale. I've been caring for my dad at home on hospice for the past 6 months and I hardly ever drive her anymore. I built her to be driven so I figured it was time to let someone else enjoy her. I have it at Hillbank Motorsports in Irvine on consignment https://www.hillbankusa.com/vehicles/446/2016-ford-mustang

It'll be an amazing car for the new buyer and hopefully they'll enjoy her as much as I did. Once things settle with my dad's health issues I'll be back with a new build.

Hi Dennis,
Have not connected with you for quite some time. So sorry to hear about your father. My prayers will be with you during this difficult time.
I have really enjoyed watching your build of the Ruby Red GT.
