This Video is Best Viewed in 1080P HD!



This build was a collaboration of the very best in the industry and I want to take a moment and thank everyone individually.

L&M Engines (L&M Engines) – Michael and the boys build one hell of an engine. Not only does it make huge power, it’s been proven to be very reliable with everything we’ve been throwing at it.

Kenne Bell Twin Screw Superchargers (www.kennebell.net.com) Jim and Ken supplied us with the 3.6LC Twin Screw Supercharger and 168mm Oval Throttle Body. They build the Coolest Supercharger on the planet.

Lund Racing (Lund Racing - EFI Tuning Specialists) – What can’t I say? Jon Lund has been tuning for us for the past 8 Years and is simply the best. This past weekend we showed up at the NMRA Ford Nations at MIR with an untested combination and within six ¼ mile passes the car ran an 8.94@159MPH. Simply Amazing!

JLT Performance (www.jlttruecoldair.com) If you don’t know Jay and his awesome line of Cold Air Intakes and Oil Separators then you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past 8 years. All I can say is the quality as usual is top notch and the Damn thing is Massive. No Restriction on this setup!

American Racing Headers (American Racing Headers) Nick builds the best Longtube headers in the industry using American Stainless Steel and built in America by American workers. They always fit perfect and always make power. Maybe that’s why their used by the fastest in the industry, including Ford Racing’s Cobra Jet.

Steeda Autosports (Mustang Parts | Steeda is The Largest Manufacturer of Mustang and Other Ford Products Made in The U.S.A.) Big thanks to Don and Dario for supplying us with some Hardcore Race suspension parts that could handle the abuse we put in through on the drag strip.

Chuck Wrzesniewski (Chuck@Evolution)(Evolution Performance, Inc. Lead Technician) This guy has a passion for this industry like no other. As most you know he always offers his advanced technical help to the community and will go out of his way to do so. Chuck did an excellent job putting this car together especially in the little time frame we had.

Team Evolution Performance - All of our Good Friends and Customers that have supported us over the years. Most recently Chris Cruz, Chelo Morales and Domenic DiDonato helped us this past weekend at the NMRA Ford Nationals. We ran 8.94@159MPH Friday Night and made it to the Semi-Finals on Sunday. Your help was an integral part of our accomplishments and was very much appreciated.

The 6 speed makes it even better.

On another note. The second best part of Evo's videos are the awesome songs they play that I never heard before. Fred you need to send me a playlist.

I don't know if I could keep the pedal to the floor in that car, I would be sucking up leather after 1st gear.
