This is why I haven't been post a lot lately. I've been busy working my butt off to finish the car before the shootout.
Here is the engine powdercoated the valve covers, alt bracket and crossover tube red. upper and lower intake along with the s/c tubing was done in a two base coat. it is black with a grey sparkle behind it. and the 'got boost' plaque is something I just did last night.
The wheels are done in gloss black with the calipers in red. This red is called blood red or crimson. I had them widened to 9.5 with Nitto NT05's on them. These hook and go!
We did:
Mevotech front upper control arms
front lower Moog balljoints
addco sway bars with Moog endlinks
Parker oil separator
port/polish upper and lower intake
Ford Racing 4:10's
Auburn posi unit

A big thanks goes to Landy, cougar9150, Bigcars4ever, Tony,
blackened300a,Fastblackmerc and Allen @ Procoat.

Sorry about the size of the photo, it won't let me copy and paste from my album. Just zoom in.
What do you guys think?

Quite a big difference see posts http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=74820 IDK about the tune, right now nothing so far. Seems like the jury's out on that one. But a big difference.

Cool I'd love to see what the lower looks like. No I'm not going to SSHS, kind of far for me as I'm in NY. Perhaps next year. Do they have an N/A class? ;) Otherwise i'd be toast in a hurry.

We'll get some numbers and photos up soon. Been working crazy hours to fund the shootout trip. They have four different bracket classes so you would run in your time class. Pretty fun. I won second place Last year in the street outlaw class.
