Plus 1 for the Detroit Speed setup!

I was fortunate enough to go around Charlotte Motor Speedway at the Mustang 50th this April with Kyle Tucker in the 66 Mustang Test car. We hit 167MPH on the back straight and took one of the high banked corners at 120MPH, yes thats right 120MPH - I couldn't see straight! It was friggen awesome haha Their suspension truly works!

Kyle and Stacy are first class people and they have a very solid business. I have their Quadra Link in my 67 fastback with Roushcharged coyote (will be driveable next summer finally) and the only reason I don't have their setup in the front is because at the time I bought my front clip they didn't offer anything (Running a Roadster Shop IFS front clip)

The only thing I can say is their Sales team is still very new to the Mustang stuff and as such, its seems as though there are only a couple guys really knowledgeable on the Ford stuff. I'm sure this will only get better as they continue to develop Mustang/Ford stuff.

Anyways, hope that helps!
Good luck with your project

LOL! We are not allowed to ship it . and believe it or not, we pay more for a gallon of water than we pay for a gallon of GAS!

I do however have some experience with Detroit Speed, and can tell you that their customer service is top notch. I've had nothing but positive experiences with them.

If all goes well, there should be a car with Mike's front and rear suspension at SEMA with a coyote engine between the shock towers.

As far as automatic transmission I'm not sure I understand the question...

A lot of groupies, clicks in car biz and racing. Go to a show where the DSE mustang is. Go for a ride, see the parts on a car, see what works around their parts. Tire sizes, stances, plumbing under hood, etc, etc.

Point is, put your eyeballs on it, your butt in it, and YOUR brain and gut will spit out the answer.
