    Stock-style motor mount replacements for GT500?

    I'm replacing my stock K-member with one from Maximum Motorsports and am searching for stock-style motor mounts to replace the OEM Ford units, which are no longer available. I realize that there are poly 'washer-style' mounts that are available, but I want to avoid anything that increases NVH...

    Looking for feedback on MMR oil cooler kit or any other kit you've pieced together.

    I’ve heard mixed reviews about the efficacy of the MMR GT500 oil cooler (which has -10AN fittings) in track applications. I don’t plan on doing more than a dozen autocrosses and a few HPDE events a year and would appreciate some feedback as to whether the MMR kit would be sufficient. I’d also...

    Recommendations for a roller engine cradle?

    Any recommendations for a good roller engine cradle for a 5.4/5.8? Most of the engine cradles I’ve found online are engine specific (i.e., small block Ford and Chevy) and I know nothing about the ones that claim they’ll fit a Ford modular block.

    Any issues transplanting a 2013-2014 GT 500 engine into a 2007 GT500?

    Are there any issues associated with transplanting a 5.8 from a 2013-2014 GT500 into a 2007 GT500, if I strip off all the 2013-2014 electronics from the later block and install it with the 2007 controls? Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    Looking for 3" catback exhaust that works with Dynatech headers and catted x-pipe

    I have a 2007 GT500 that I'm planning to add Dynatech headers and catted X-pipe to. My question is: will any aftermarket 3" GT/GT500 catback exhaust mate up with this header and X-pipe combination? Currently, I'm running a stock exhaust with KR mufflers and I really like the sound. If...

    Advice needed: upgrade to a VMP 2R or 3R?

    I have 2007 GT500 that has about 100,000 miles on it, but still has good compression. The only mods I’ve made to it over the years have been to the suspension, brakes, and differential, but I’m now planning to add a supercharger and my choice is between a VMP 2R vs. a VMP 3R, with a price...

    Compatibility of KR Strut Bar with VMP 2R and 3R?

    I understand that when installing a new supercharger, many simply delete their strut bars, but I'm curious as to whether this is needed for a VMP 2R or 3R install? Thinking about upgrading to one or the other over the holidays.

    Appreciate feedback on SW headers and 3" exhaust

    I have a 2007 GT500 with a stock exhaust, except for a set of KR mufflers -- which I think sound absolutely great. But the car has about 95K miles on it and I'm planning to upgrade to a built 5.8, headers, and a new exhaust. From what I've read, the Stainless Works headers sound like the best...

    Anyone hydroarbon their front grills or ear window louvers?

    My front grills are a mess and I have been thinking about having them hydrocarbon dipped. Also been thinking about how it might look to do a set of rear window louvers with the same finish. Has anyone tried this?

    Build a 5.8 shortblock or transplant the engine and trans from a 2013/14?

    I have a 2007 and would like to upgrade to a 5.8 engine -- both for the additional power and to take 100 lbs off the front end. The car will be used primarily for street driving and occasional autocrosses (and I know the extra power is useless for autocrossing -- but it will still put a grin on...

    DIfferences betweeen 07-12 and 13-14 front spindles?

    Just got finished looking at the 15" Extreme brakes on the Baer website. They say they are designed to utilize the 2013-2014 GT500 spindles. I wans't aware there was any difference between the 2013-2014 spindles and the earlier ones. If there were, it seems that people wouldn't be able to...

    Recommended chassis braces for open track events

    I am going to start autocrossing and entering open track events with my 2007 GT500 and want to be sure (for both safety and handling considerations) that the car can handle the expected chassis and suspension loads. At the same time, I don’t want to add any unnecessary weight. This car is also...

    Alpine 8-inch nav unit in an '07-'09?

    I'm looking to upgrade my Shaker 500 head unit with an aftermarket nav system. There are a number of good systems with 7-inch screens that will drop right in, but I would really like to install the Alpine INE-Z928HD head unit (Alpine Electronics of America, Inc.), which is double-din sized and...

    Shadrach 67/68 Shelby-style scoops

    I have been looking to add some quarter window scoops to my 2007 GT500 – preferably ones that closely match the styling of those that originally came on the ’67 -’68 Shelbys. After searching for a couple of years now, the closest thing I have found are the scoops that were used on the Shadrach...
