[QUOTE="RoscoP, post: 16243278, member: 139186"] [ATTACH=full]1585688[/ATTACH] It’s been a long time since I read or posted. My 06 GT needed some love at 94k mikes. The car is used for track days and in the warm months I chose it to drive to work. Started over heating in 3,4,5th (2800rpm with a load) and no matter what we did to the tune or cooling system, it would not stay cool. Could cool it with increased rpm. So new motor excuse! I went through all the options from crate to build. In the end we decided on this. Motor FFRP 5.3 short block MMP Stage3 3V heads MMP Comp Cam road race grind FFRP intake and throttle body Steeda underdrive pullies Mishimoto Radiator Canton road race oil pan Long Tube headers High flow cats FFRP X Pipe FFRP Exhaust Lots of suspension goodies cobbled together over the years FFRP shocks, struts, swaybars Eibach Sport Springs Steeda rear control arms, 3rd link Steeda adjustable panhard bar Home turned rear control arm Delrin bushings BMR rear control arm relocation brackets Home grown cable limiters with 2” travel to keep the rear from traveling too far Brakes ST43 pad compound (not a great street compound, basically steel plates) Baer 14” front and rear rotors Boss Brembo front calipers Home made rear caliper relocation brackets GT500 brake cooling backing plates and ducts The results are a fun car to drive with a great torque curve that really wakes up at 4500prm. Sort of feels like my 00R at 5k rpm. First track day identified things like the need to remove the rear bump stops. Very fun to drive and happy with where we are today. Freakin loud! 387rwhp 367ftlb torque [/QUOTE]
