Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

It will be plenty heavy by the time its done. That's what the cubes are for to overcome the heft.

I can't take any credit for that it is all the Roadster Shop and their talent.

Yea, it's overkill to put this much effort into a Blue oval just to beat up on the Bowties. I probably could have left it stock to get that done.

I took a field trip today to drop off some parts and look at some parts.



I dropped my Wilwood rear disc kit off with Frank and Ken so they could finish my housing and get it shipped to the RS shop.

That's mine right there on the rack, yea that one the mod lite.


I got an education on floaters from the guys while I was there. After touring the shop and seeing their build process I am really happy with the choice to use one of their housings.

I also stopped off at Bentfab. Mark has a nice shop and is doing some really nice work up there.
