The install was done in house by my buddy Ray McClelland from FTK.. Very well know in the Ford world for tuning! 2007 Shelby Mustang is what it is in.. it still needs to be tuned on the chassis dyno .. but estimated to put out about over 700hp to the rear wheels..
Has cylinder work & custom ground cam shaft.. I will get the dyno results later...

Ray supports my LS tunes here @ the shop.. & when I got the opportunity to do a this Mustang.. We went for the 5.0 motor cause Ray will handle the stand alone running of the motor & trans..

Not that the 5.4s really need more power the way they pull off of idle, but do you know how much the Vortech Twin Screw made on it? Did you install it, by chance?

Update! Now that the Camaro is pretty close to finishing.. We have been working on the Mustang... We cut out the factory rocker panels & built a custom set by bending, rolling & welding a set out of .120 1018 plate..
Working on getting them fit & welded so we can start the firewall fabrication ..

Rockers out of .120 plate ? That seems a little overkill !

Cris@JCG 11-28-2011 03:56 PM

Not too me when it is the main chassis structure of the car! When I start building the floors & firewall it will make more sense on why we built our rocker panels the way we did..

A lot of builders do this to stiffen up the car. Some even build all the way up the "A" & "B" Pillar.

The Marlboro Syclone that I owned "A" & "B" Pillar were done this way for the Targa Top conversion. Also the Windsheild post was filled with Liquid Steel or something similar.
