The orignal Pot metal bumper extensions were not working for us with the stretch & the carbon fiber rear bumper... So.. We made our own out of sheetmetal & built them into the body...

It has been a while since I have any updates but here are a few... Still have parts being laser cut for rear suspension & parts are being machined... I have a few more new parts coming here pretty soon that I will show when I have the rear suspension done..

Cris, I thought I read somewhere in this tread that this was going to be a simpler build compared to BB I don't think you are sticking to that anymore are you

Rick- This is a simpler build than BB.. We keep the orginal roof, doors, stock dash, & instead of a Coyote.. a 525 HP LS3...

Jason- The change on the engine was a mutal descision between me & the owner.. As for the other changes from the start to now have be things that I have been allowed to do as part of my R&D for my venture into the Ford world..

Thank you sir! Primo.. My main fabricator just keeps getting better with time.. with the rest of my crew! Juan.. my designer of my suspension in CAD is a big asset to what I have been doing lately... Plus my machinist KR..

Casey Cronin is another big tool to my current venture in the suspension world.. Today we spent some time discussing Anti-Squat, the effect of body roll on a panard bar adjustment, spring rates & posi units..

That's good stuff, and hats off to you for including them as your team effort. It shows that you have a great team effort and your ability to put that together.
