Welcome to the forum. That is an impressive list of modifications! Have you dynoed the car or have a 1/4 time? I have a 2006 Mazda3 sport, but its stock.
Stock was 95whp. I'm dyno'd at 117 whp before the 8 lbs wheels and the 7.5 lbs flywheel. I'm scheduled to dyno again in 2 weeks.
Sold the Mustang for the price of the motor that is in our 1950 Chevy truck. http://www.theautolog.com/rednecks-2 Here is a newer picture of the P5
Dang, nice truck! Sad about the mustang though. Hopefully the new owner will, ya know, take good care of it. Still, nice truck.
