Shelby73 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 I remember when I was a kid, I would take the boxes and make a rocket ship. Well now that I'm older I bought many used parts, and made a rocket ship out of my 2009 GT500. I thought I would take a second and share a very memorable moment in my life, with fellow members, and friends. This car is a daily driver, and I smile everyday driving her. Sometimes it's good to never grow up. http://youtu.be/dKsxejWc6so http://youtu.be/urQs6Xsu6ic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby73 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I was probably in the high 500 low 600 range before adding the 8qt shelby racing oil pan, 72lb injectors, whipple 2.9 with 3 inch pulley, fore Inovation stage 2 returnless fuel system, 170 thermostat, C&R dual fan heat exchanger, and AFCO extreme aluminum radiator. I had the CJ 65mm throttle body, JLT 127mm CAI, ARH 1 7/8 with high flow cats, and magnaflow 2.5 cat back exhaust. After dialing her in we hit 743 RWP with more HP left in the car (around 50 HP) on 93 octane. Since the car is a daily driver I didn't want to go any more and run it on the edge. Best part is we were constant hitting that number, had a little over an hour worth of tuning. Have the McCleod RXT clutch, and Dynotect 1pc shaft, and 73 gears, along with many suspension upgrades.
