WTS/T: 2003 Black F1a Procharged Mach 1 5.1 stroker, 775rwhp NOW $20k!!!!

Part of me can’t believe I’m doing this, and part of me is screaming run run while its all together and perfect before you break it!, LOL. After having this car in the shop for 9 months after popping my previous motor driving back from steeda stampede, just not sure I have this car vibe anymore…. Very weird feeling I must say.

Kesatie Motorsports in Sarasota, FL just completed all of this work, motor/tranny and rear end are literally brand new, I replaced the ENTIRE driveline … I have close to 40k in this build. But I know how the mod game works … As the car sits currently, it needs nothing other than driven. I built it to retain all creature comforts AC, power steering etc. You can drive this car to walmart and grocery shop (although lots of people break their necks trying to figure out what the hell this car is… It sounds like a 747 taxi’ing down the runway, it is LOUD. Make no mistake, you are not sneaking anywhere in this car.

Currently dyno’d at 773/683 on pump gas . I have the meth kit running, but I did not add timing with the meth. It makes those numbers on straight 93. The meth I have for safety. You could definitely wick it up higher if you wanted to.

I'll try not to leave anything out :)
Looking for $25k and thats firm NOW $20K!!!!!!!

As for trades: definitely consider most anything, just try me.. Up or down, even etc.. Would like a new 5.0, gt500, z06, 911, evo, sti etc etc...

Issues:
1. Oil pressure gauge is calibrated wrong (it’s the Aeroforce sender, it reads 120ish psi when it should be reading 30-40. Haven’t talked to aerforce to figure out what needs to happen to correct this
2. It has the occasional Mach 1 stall… When you roll up to a stop, like most mach’s I’ve played with, it will sometimes stall. Not a big deal, but annoying.
3. It has 1 small nick in the lip of the hood, one bb sized ding in the left rear quarter, one scratch in the right rear quarter by the taillight, and the 03 cobra trunk has the standard issue cracked brake light on the right side.
4. Front tires are 285’s/// This is really too big for the front, and they have rubbed the fender liner prior to its current alignment, so the fender liners are a bit ragged.

NIce looking car .. nice read ...

are you running 93 pump with meth?

I was going to run the same "screen' on my F1-A but the fear of snatching up something in the f1-a made me put one of those robbing air filters on :)

Good Luck With Your Sale.... If your selling it.. I didn't see a price :)

Tune and break in/dyno/custom fab work was all done by Matt at Kesatie Motorsports. I posted a thread on a Florida board with exactly what I wanted done to the car. Most shops either tune only, or didn't want the magnitude of work done that I wanted done. Matt said, no problem, he even came and picked the car up. His shop is 3.5 hrs from me.. I could t be happier, especially with all the snags we hit... The HOB procharger bRacket setup was a bucket of fun.....

And if the car sells, I'd give up the plate...

Name is Jon TEXT me anytime .. 860-777-8978 .. I have my Mach listed here too... I know it won't sell which is fine.. ( people rather look, rather buy a stang undone for 12k then take the long way like we did.. If they only knew ) lol


I hope to talk to you ... I was going to go "cog" but decided it be too tuff on the car being stick...

I'm going to play with a few diffrent pulley combinations... I have a 10% over drive ... 3.4 on the F1-A now .. but I think a 3.55 or 3.70 would be good... I also have a 3.85 that i got 22 lbs boost out off with the last engine.. but i want 24 to 26 lbs :)

I debated COG, but it is brutal for a car you want to be daily driver compatible... I am hitting 24-25#'s now with a 3.9 RR pulley...

SWEET set up.... :beer: GLWS ...Any vid's of the dyno ???

I didn;t get any of the first dyno, but fortunately, there is another fun dyno day this coming weekend that I should be participating in, so I'll try to get a vid of that...

should be alittle more specific on "trades".

I really meant what I said on trades in my ad. If someone wants To trade a 1983 Honda hatch with 400,000 miles plus 24,750 in cash. I'm good with it. Or you have a 30k car/truck etc and want this car plus 5k.. Done.. As long as we come to terms On trade value, I'll trade it.
