Ford GT-TT conversion is underway!
Well, the cat's outta the bag...I finally gave in to the TT bug after riding in SW's car a couple of weeks ago. Torrie had already planted the seed when I rode with him. Having a top notch shop like Cody's place so close to home put me over the edge.
After cutting my performance car teeth, so to speak, in the early 90s with my 5.0 LX notchback, from bolt ons to heads/cam, to a used Powerdyne centrifugal, culminating with an Incon twin turbo/6 speed setup, I am no stranger to twin turbo V8's. To those that see turbocharging as a replacement for displacement...I say why not have both?
I enjoyed my last blast with the Whipple on the drive from Houston to Buda, and I figured I'd share in the anticipation with you all. That setup is for sale; see the classifieds for details.
Here are some pics of the progress so far....not bad for 2 days of work!

If I was in the market for something like this, that shop would have already won rights to my build. Attention to detail like that is something you don't see everyday. You can tell they will do quality work. Best of luck - can't wait to see her all buttoned up ready to go
