Hello everyone, my name is Joe and I own a 2000 silver GT. I will be picking it up from the engine builder tomorrow. I had 3 spun bearings and 2 rods knocking. Now I have a 302 stroker with all forged and balanced internals, Stage 3 patriot heads and cams, Professional products p&p intake, 30lb injectors, cai, bbk 75mm tb, bbk longtubes with magnaflow x pipe, 3.55s for now will be 4.10s, 2800 rpm stall, tubular k member, blah blah blah. Looks like a great site with a lot of info. Oh yea 9:1 compression for a twin turbo kit next year.

Update, got the car back on friday. I am having problems with my predator programmer. We can not manipulate the timing or lose the top speed limiter(stops at 123). But I put down 280hp and 295tq at the rear wheels. I raced a 99 cobra (had at least exhaust) on the highway today. He would not slow down so we ran from about 80 to 120. First time I put my rear bumper at his front. The second time he came around, by the time my rpm's came up his rear bumper was at my front. He pulled about 5 feet and he was getting away any more. By that time we had hit 115 and I sloweed down and got off at my exit. I wanted to go from about 40. If we would have I think I would have taken him. Anyway I am calling my engine builder tomorrow and telling him we need to burn a custom chip. The predator will be sent off to be fixed then I will probably sell it. There is some other stuff they could not do with the predator. There is no reason I should not hit at least 315 rwhp.
