Beater GT500 2.0

[MIKE93SVT]

It's baaaacck. So the Beater GT500 has been mechanically complete but obviously have some cosmetic things to complete. Decided to bring it back out with it's ugly face on for a while. Re-did the engine bay and smoothed it out. Installed some go fast parts

Still need to paint and install the rockers and radiator cover. Many other small projects, but it's back on the road.

Ported Blower w/ VMP elbow
JLT 127mm CAI
Cobra Jet TB
BPS cams
2.5 upper pulley
ATI 10% lower
O/R H pipe
AFCO HE
other misc stuff

First tune from VMP is great. Gong to do some datalogs later today to make sure it's safe before I beat on it. But the drivability is just like stock with the cams. Very happy

Rat Rod Shelby makes me sad.....

 

[TGR96]

Rat Rod Shelby is friggin' awesome.....

FIFY

Something tells me that the old man would have really dug this car. Too bad he's no longer around to see it.

Not gonna lie, I like the exterior. Would leave it as is.

I agree, I think it looks great as is unique for sure!

 

[bujeezus]

Love it.

 

[loots06]

I would leave well enough alone..just make sure the interior is nice and clean.

 

[Shotokan1509]

Too bad couldn't fit crown vic steelies on it

 

[KatoS197]

I think it looks awesome! Hell, I kind of wish the front bumper looked the part with the rest of the car. All the body panels look to be straight. As mentioned, I'd be sure the interior was clean and immaculate, but I'd leave it how it sits.

And yeah, the antenna is a nice touch.

Get some footage beatin' on some hellcats and Z06's and "Beater-500" will become a YouTube sensation. lol.

Haha, thanks guys. As soon as VMP blesses off on the logs, I'll be getting some good race action. Videos to follow

Mike


And the car/interior is always super clean. I still park out in the boondocks, haha

 

[TenSpeed]

So much win. I love this damn car. 12/10 would drive as is.

 

[travelers]

I like the rear angled antenna, it's got to be worth at least 10HP if not 15HP.

 

[skwerl]

Love it! And Justin's tunes are pretty damn good right out of the box. Unless there's issues with the car, his tunes will always be safe (and fast). Looking forward to reading and seeing how well it runs.

 

[Black Bullitt]

Leave it as it. Looks awesome!

 

[AR Stang]

I like it. That antenna photo had me actually laughing.

I think it's perfect as is, just keep the wheels and interior nice and clean.
