Added another to the stable today (muscle car content)











What you are looking at is 2003 Mach 1, I could not pass it up, it was an amazing deal. 67K on the body and tranny with 3000 on the built 04 cobra motor, extremely clean inside and out

Highlights include, 04 cobra forged bottom end, Polished Vortech Aftercooled V2 S trim kit, full steeda suspension, 18" Kosei rims, and a auto tranny

My plans are to pulley it for 18lbs with an added meth kit, built rear end with 4.10 gears, and a big stall. Right now it is seeing 12-13lbs and making 486rwhp as seen above. Not that excited about the tune as the TQ curve should be way flatter, and more power under the curve. That will be fixed though, once my tuner puts his hands on it.

You are correct sir. Do you like the wheels, I may look into trading them for some 03/04 cobra chromies or saleen chromies? DSG with chrome looks so clean, and pops real nice at night.

This car will probably get into the 10s before the E55, LMAO!

I will take it with on the next track day to see what she does.

As a pricing point of reference, rebuilding the rear end with a brand new LSD 31 spline locker, 31 spline axles for a live axle rear, 4.10 ring and pinion gears, new 18lb pulley with belt, tune and install will be $1500

Got to love domestic muscle. As a reference, a wavetrac with install will probably run more than that alone.

I love DSG and completely agree about the chrome wheels! I think the Termi hoops would look incredible on this one. They'd also be appropriate considering the short block.

I love that body mustang, but think it's got awful interiors. I don't know what they were thinking but they sure got it right on the exterior. Especially the Cobra which is very sexy imo.

Hey Craig- Nice addition to the famiy !!
Now as far as this car hitting 10's before your E55, I beg to differ !!
I was over at BIP today picking up my car and I got to peak in on your beast.
I don't think you have a square inch of space under that hood to add anything else.
Just run it up to Maryland and you will get your times, no doubt.
Enjoy the new ride.
