From the build pics on their FB page, it looks like this is built with track intentions but who in their right mind would do it? 740hp, 110+ Octane ???

They don't have a build thread on one of the forums ?

I'm a Mustang expert and I"m having a hard time seeing the widening. I can see it in the 1/4's but barely visible on the front fenders - job well done. I though several times about widening my car vs the flares, but always intended to do it through the center, not the fenders.

Love to see more details on this car, sigh, I guess I will have to hijack my wife's FB account.

Default Great looking car above

but if it is widened, that has to be the most subtle job I have ever seen. They must have split the car down the center and added it in the middle

Yeah I can't quite figure it out either - in fact I stopped and studied a '65 fastback in the parking lot yesterday after looking at these photos. What I am concentrating on is the width of the top of the door character line where the side view mirror mounts, and I cannot see any difference from stock. If the fender was widened 2" each it would need to be wider than the windshield by stock + 2", and that would have to be noticeable. I'm positive that the greenhouse and grille are not 4" wider either. But it says right on the back of the car "65+4" and from that angle the quarters do look like their top surface is wider. Maybe that two tone paint job is really tricking our eyes or something. I'm very disappointed there isn't a 200+ photo build thread on this car !

Be nice to hear some details about that engine as well, although I guess the answer is "giant solid roller cam, 13.5:1 CR, TEA ported TFS-R heads"
