Thank you..

Yeah, gt350r brakes front and rear are the next install.

Looking at Steeda brake lines and maybe ARP studs to go along with it..

I think next will be QA1 Carbon Fiber Driveshaft and then maybe Half Shafts, all leading up to a Whipple install in the future.. working my way to it.

Thought about headers, just not sure I want the car to be all the loud and kinda like the Corsa Sport sound with stock headers.

I have owned a 2014 GT500 and 2008 Ford Mustang GT in the past before this one.

I had modified both of them, the 2008 Mustang I really modified like crazy.. built motor, KB 2.8, 888 rwhp, 6 speed swap, air lift.. etc..

You're going full-bore! Should lose the cloth seats though ... took mine off and re-covered with the leather set off a Roush build car.

Funny you say that, I almost bought a set of Braum seats few weeks back.

I looked at maybe picking up a set of used Recaro's also, I kinda would like to have set of gt350 take out seats front and rear. But would like to have the gt350 logo taken out of the seat.

Rear knuckles pulled and new gt350 emergency brake lines installed.

Now just waiting on some more parts to come in this week. Should have it all done by next weeks offdays.

Good on ya man! This seems to be a form of therapy for you? At least it would be for me. Nice work.

Yes Sir, It definitely is for me... it helps me wind down and love it.. I get more enjoyment working on it then driving it.

I have few more parts here or on the way for the brake swap. I picked up a set of Steeda vertical link, Steeda Adjustable Camber arms and extended ARP wheel studs front and rear.

Still waiting on the Steeda brake lines to come in, was told it probably be Wednesday before they ship out. I wish I could afford a set of Ford Racing halfshafts to throw in the back while I have all the knuckles off the car in the rear.

The vertical link are crazy beefy..

Beautiful build with epic parts selection! Curious to hear your thoughts on how the Whippled Coyote compares to your LT4 equipped CTS-V.

Few updates...

Fronts are done and fit perfectly with my 6GR 20x10 35mm rims.

Still have the back to finish up and then bleed the brakes and should be done with this around of mods.

Steeda brake lines, figured I would post some pictures of them as I haven't seen whole lot on them.

The quality seems to be good, but not a fan of the way the brake line connects to the bracket in the front with a c-clip. Was hard to get on and left the brake line feeling loose on the bracket.

Back brakes are done and the brakes are flushed.. should finish up tomorrow with this round of parts.

I guess up next is Steeda front sway bar, since I have already replaced the back.

Then QA1 Carbon Fiber Driveshaft
