Thanks for the nice comments. I have no idea if i like or dislike the suspension at this point since the car is not drivable yet. I'll certainly let you know when i get it on the street though.

Anyway,Better photos of the car with the hood in place. I haven't worked on it in almost two weeks, but i plan to start back on it this Sunday. I will of course post progress photos as they are available.

Spintechs mufflers with supercharged 4.6L = awesomeness.

The pipes are just loosely fitted in the two videos below that are spliced together and the passenger side muffler did fall off after I hit 5,000 rpm on the second segment, but still, they sound great. These mufflers will sound different with every engine. I just want to throw that out there so that i dont get blamed at a later date for a 302, 351, etc. with spinteches not sounding the same as my car. My engine will sound far different than a 351W etc. due to the different pulse of the valvetrain. Remember, this engine has 4 cams not 1.

The sound quality isnt great in the video and the fuel pump that came with the MTF aluminum fuel tank is way too loud, but the exhaust and engine do sound incredible in person when the mufflers aren't falling off and I step back from the interior to get away from the whine of the pump. If the fuel pump is still that loud after installing the divider panel, etc. then i will probably need to change it out. With that said, it still gives you an idea of the sound and i personally like it. It is quiet at idle and cruising rpm, but really aggressive under hard acceleration.

Easy now, it is still not on the road and it only has about 3 gallons of gas in the tank. I'm working on it, i promise. Hit another snag today with the fuel system, so the exhaust still isnt installed. Whoever made the tank for Mustangs to Fear decided not to clean out all of the aluminum shavings after drilling the holes for the fuel pump, sending unit, and filler neck. I'm just really glad that I had a very good inline filter in place, that i did not run the car anymore than i did, and that i decided to look inside the tank see why in the world the pump is so loud-mounting bracket is the problem.

Thanks for the compliments.
