Just put back on the Black Bullitts. I like them much better then the chrome Halibrands. The Halibrands reminded me too much of a SUV with 20's.

Thanks guys,

Other than being a tad too tall for the stock hood, I love the RPM II Intake. I also have the RPM Performer heads and a 331 bottom end. The intake really helps the car out at 6-6.5k rpm's.

Ok thanks...I have a ported performer and it stopped pulling at 5200. My rev limiter is set at 6500.. So I hope to be able to pull more to 6000 range...

car looks good! I'd lose the mudflaps out back though, and swap to a 93 cobra rear bumper. black interior would be a plus too....haha I like the bullits though!

Nice! Any rubbing? We are going to put 17x8 anniversary cobra wheels on my freinds gt. We were thinking the fenders will need to be rolled. He will probaly have h&r springs on it as well.

Thanks for the kind words!!

I am running 274/40 in the rear and they do rub. I had 255/45 on it before and it's a taller tire. The 255's rubbed but not like the 275's. I am going back to the 255's

Up front I have 235/45/17 and they rub the front ground effect. On the early modle fox body cars, the ground effects are cut in closer to the wheel. It only rubs on tight turns.

my favorite wheel/car color combo! Looks great!
By the way, was that car originally from up here in Cleveland, Ohio? It looks like the car my buddy was going to buy last year. It was absolutely mint.

Yah, I built the car several years ago and sold it. I kicked myslef everyday for selling. Finally found it in Pittsburg. I paid too much to buy it back becasue the guy did not want to sell. I did not care what it cost because I wanted it back for my son.

The guy who had the car in Cleveland, OH absolutley ruined the underside of the car. The car had never seen rain and he drove it in the salt and stored under cover outside. It has some chips in it now and the car is not 100% perfect like it use to be. I will eventually get it back to the condition I originally had it in.
