Bullitt mods

[cactus_kid]

Good to hear about the ground clearance with the bulky Borla contraption... but it DID reduce ground clearance, which I find unacceptable. But glad you're satisfied with it . I'll leave my car alone, with the possible exception of the Steeda lower G-brace, and that's only IF there's absolutely no risk of it hitting anything, meaning above the level of the belly pan and chassis rails. Sitting perpendicular to the direction of travel makes it a lot more dangerous than parallel, like the Borla pipe.

Can you post without denigrating a paying forum advertiser ? This is simply one of many you've dissed, including Steeda. It is their advertising dollar that supports this forum. Secondly, that is an optical illusion based on camera angle when I took the picture. The lift was being lowered. Just for grins and giggles, we measured before and after the install. Meh ! One would be hard pressed to visually see the difference. I am going to make a polite suggestion sir ............... "Get over yourself !"

How are the updated sway bars and springs going to handle ride comfort? One of the reasons I shied away from the 350 was I didn't require a track machine, I am using it as a daily and even on comfort (albeit with 35psi tires) I find the constant thunk thunk of road gaps as you travel over one concrete panel to another bloody annoying after an hour.

Obviously if you are tightening everything up for a more track focused approach then forget the above, your needs are different to mine

I have not encountered any issues. I live in rural TX. Many of our country roads look like the visible remnants of the Oregon Trail in portions of WY, ID and, OR. Meaning they are deeply rutted. They are used by the local ranchers and farmers on a daily basis. In fact, by statute law, farm and ranch equip has the right of way except on a multi lane divided highway. Then they must cling to the shoulders. Not an unusual sight in south and west TX. My car is a dd and I've put several 100 mi on it since the spring/sway install. My front sway is in the middle hole btw.

WHAT?!? Did you forget your meds or something? I just stated that bulky Borla pipe reduces ground clearance, which is an absolute fact thanks to YOUR freaking picture. Glad you liked it, and that you don't care that it sticks down compared to the stock resonator, but stop being a fanboy. Was just stating the obvious. I don't want to reduce the semi-limited clearance of my car in any way, and I'm sure there are others like me, where that little fact is important.

I recently installed quarter window louvers on my bullitt and it looks sick.

You truly need to chill out Elp. Not a one of us that has the Borla mid pipe installed has had a ground clearance issue. Calling someone a fanboy is rather childish on your part. I chose it over Steeda or others because the design makes sense to me. Lastly, as my car is lowered and was so prior to the installation of the mid pipe, your statement as regards ground clearance has no validity. I am lowered over 1.5" from stock and have yet to scrape on anything.

Very nicely done. Where did you find them ?

They’re the hurst quarter louvers, had to get them painted at a mod shop. They don’t fit right bc of the bullitts chrome trim so you have to double up on tape in some places but then they fit perfect.

I’m also gonna add some 1 inch spacers to the rear tires soon. Does anyone have experience with this and pictures to show?

 

[cactus_kid]

Thank you. I'm going to look into them. Not using spacers so I can't help. As you are in FL, may I suggest asking either John or Rod @ Steeda ? They have been quite helpful with my build. Rod is over the install and tuning center in FL. In fact, in the fall, I'm bringing the "Spirit of Skunk Hollow" to FL for the s/c install. As it will take two days, I'll rent a car and drive to the keys. That is the missing link to my 4 corners tour of the US. I will also have the honor of having driven both ends of US 1.
