Haha yeah stock looking is what im aiming for atm. Yeah think it's a stronger oversize cv unit. Joe said its good for a 1000hp so must be pretty heavy duty. Will wait and see when I get it back and give some details then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably best to give him a ring ford freak he is more then helpful. The one I'm getting gets rid of the cv joints and replaces them with uni joints with a slip yoke. It's like what the v8 brute utes use he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best run I got was 12.273 @ 125.61mph with 2.189 60ft. Pretty sh*t lol. There is another meet this Friday which I'm heading out too ordered a set of 275/40/17's mt et streets last week so they should be here for that. Also got a Malwood tramp rod kit too which has made a noticeable difference to the rear end.Also thought I could live with out brembos after selling my 6pots but stock calipers with DBA T3 rotors and ferodo ds pads are just not cutting it so got on to a guy selling this setup off his GT r-spec. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
