 THIS IS A ONE OF A KIND MUSTANG MODFOX!! It is featured in JAN 2014 MM&FF magazine and earned honorable mentions for the  top10 best mustangs in America! It is basically a 89 coupe shell sitting on a 2007 Gt500. I have hundreds of hours in this build!

ENGINE...2007 GT500 5.4 DOHC with a upgraded 2.8 Kenne Bell stg3 Supercharger kit. The engine has 17035 miles on it. It comes with SCT pre tuned tuner. It has 3 tunes. A 15psi pg tune that made 650rwhp. A rg 15psi tune that makes 675rwhp and last a 19psi tune that netted 748hp/620tq to the tires. JMS chip & performance done a outstanding job with this car. It runs, drives, idles, like a Honda accord. No stumbles, cold starts?? not any issues at all!!! smooth revs, no hiccups once so ever. Doesn't get any better then what it is now!!!

TRANNY... 2007 GT500 TR6060 6 speed manual transmission with a spec carbon twin disc hydraulic clutch. It uses a factory Gt500 shifter and X member as well.

REAR END... Fox body 8.8 with brand new 03-04 cobra traction unit. ( I chose this because I have never saw a terminator with one wheel pull) I used the GT500 355 gear ratio with chrome moly hardened 31 spline axles. 

BRAKES... Rear brakes are new edge with PBR calipers, ceramic pads. Front is New edge also with PBR dual piston calipers w/ ceramic pads. Drilled and slotted rotors were installed on all 4 corners. A GT500 power brake booster was used instead of hydrobooster. Yes this is probably the only 4v swap fox in the world with a brake booster lol. Wilwood proportional valve is used to control rear percentage.

SUSPENSION....The front is UPR K member kit for a mod swap. UPR CC plates. Off set rack bushings. UPR coil over kit (14/175). Strange 10 adjustable struts. The rear is pretty simple with Strange 10way adjustable shocks, stock 4cy springs. Steeda aluminum weight jacker LCA. Boxed UCA. Everything is rubber bushing. I wanted a smooth ride.

FUEL... The fox tank was modified to accept the GT500 hat assembly. Stock gt500 fuel filter, and injectors. High psi efi hose connects it all together. EVAP is deleted. KB twin BAP

WHEELS... 18X9 BBS's!! nuff said

EXTERIOR.... Bright Atlantic Blue is the paint color. Custom fiberglass side moldings ( these wont curl at the ends). New LMR front and rear bumpers. I used 93 front fenders for the large wheel openings. Ultra clear headlight kit.

INTERIOR.. When you set down in this FOX, you could swear your sitting in a GT500!! The entire cockpit is 2007 GT500. The fox floor was removed from the back seat to the front windshield and a 07 GT500 floorpan was puzzled in to replace it. So it retains the exact headroom and leg room as a GT500. Dash, console, seat, shifter, heat/ac box all use factory gt500 bolts or nuts. I incorporated the gt500 door panels with the fox panels. The inner door handles and lock along with the window switches are all gt500 and yes, the 1 touch auto function works. The rear seats, door panels and head liner were recovered to match the front GT500 seats.

EXHAUST... Stock manifolds, 2.5 H pipe, Borla PRO XS mufflers connect to 2.5 SS Tail pipes. Sounds very good and crisp.

MISC INFO... Pretty much everything on this car was customized for this swap. A tubular radiator support was built to retain the stock gt500 radiator and fan. It also uses the factory gt500 coolant reservoir, while a moroso tank provides extra coolant for the supercharger. A kenne bell heat exchanger was used and IAT's  stay well in range. Dugan Racing smoothie inner fenders were used. The entire engine harness is hidden. Also, there isn't one inch of original fox wiring still in this car. It was all replace with a complete...yelp, you guessed it. GT500 harness. From the head light all the way to the Tail lights. After two years of building, it is impossible to include everything unique about this car one page but I think you guys have the idea of what I have put into this car. Serious inquires only may text me for additional info. 601-490-4966. The next owner of this car will have the only one like it in the world so if your that one of a kind car guy, this is your chance to own it.. Good luck friends.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.

Ford Focus RS ready to make our hot hatch dreams real

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Ford's current hot hatch siblings the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are already two pretty great entries into the segment, but there's always a desire for a little more. Thankfully, it looks like the Blue Oval is ready to satiate that need because it's continuing to test the even more powerful Focus RS around Europe. According to our spy shooters, these shots come from near the Nürburgring.
As with previous photos, Ford engineers continue to heavily camouflage the front end of the RS prototypes, but there's a big difference here. Unlike earlier ones, this example appears to have a closer-to-production-ready front bumper rather than just a horizontal strip for the license plate. That may point to development getting somewhat closer to wrapping up. Although, this one lacks the larger rear wing from prior testers, and the exhaust also appears to be a work in progress with the rear diffuser covered in mesh in these latest shots.
The RS is rumored to be using the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Mustang, but power is reportedly turned up from 310 horsepower in the 'Stang to somewhere between 325 hp and 350 hp for the Focus. Routing all that just through the front wheels could be a recipe for serious torque steer, and all-wheel drive is potentially being used for better traction.
