What did you do to your GT350 today?

Sadly, I did this to my GT350 today:

It pains me to do it, but I've got to make room for the next toy.

Installed a set of 4 black aluminum alloy Stealth Lift Pads from ZL-1 Add-Ons on each of the 4 jacking points around the car. Applied blue LocTite to the 2 screws on each pad to ensure they wouldn't loosen up over time.

Nice! Hoping to eventually go that route as well sometime in the future. The one thing that makes we wonder if I will regret selling my GT350 is the exhaust sound. The Voodoo screaming at 8K RPM just can’t be beat not to mention the pops and crackles when you let off the gas, just glorious.....

TOTALLY AGREE! I was going to keep both but don't have the room. Gotta have a V8, and the GT350 OEM exhaust is one of the best I've ever heard, if not THE best.

Couple of things. Installed a set of FP lowering springs and put these hydro dipped coil covers on to dress up under the hood a bit.

The ride height looks great. I've been thinking about springs. Have they given you a more hunkered/glued down feeling? Feel more stiff in normal mode?

I felt an immediate improvement in ride quality. The dual rate rear spring do a lot to absorb road imperfections and bumps. The car feels more planted through high speed turns. I have to take some two lane backroads to get home and this car just comes alive while changing direction. There is a good reason why all the cars at the ford performance school runs these springs. Splitter is sitting right at 4 inches off the ground so it is back to where the car sat stock on the 19’s. To be perfectly honest I would have liked to see the car be 1/4 inch lower but I think it looks great and the handling and feel is improved so I’m happy with them. I think it will be even better once I get the alignment dialed in on Friday.

I didn't know FP school ran the springs. Thank you for the review. I'll be ordering some!

The Mustang Gt’s at the school have Ford’s full suspension packs. Not the 350’s, there bone stock.

I was unaware that the FP school utilized those springs. Where did you get the coil covers, and what wheel size are you running? I'm assuming a square 20" setup?

The FP school does not use Ford Racing springs.

Thanks for the clarification. I assume they use the stock springs? The description of the FP springs says that they "increase handling dynamics yet maintains excellent ride quality", then go on to state that they "may cause slightly harsher ride when compared to stock springs"

I'm assuming the real value is from the lowered look, and not so much so any handling improvements?

Definitely handling improvmeents when paired with their matching swaybars. I have the setup on my car and it's a step up from stock
