Mustang Obsession?

Yeah, I'd say this guy is perhaps obsessed. Me? Well, Stroker McGurk was right, far as I'm concerned.

Wow... And I've always preferred the sound from a Ford V8 to anything from GM.

Love the clean look!

This guy sure has a lot of energy! And he thrashes the car. Maybe played video games too long? Oooo - surprise, the main bearings look like hell! Unless you are in a race, you don't really wan to rush a transmission like that either.

I love his racing buddy in the bullit automatic driving up to 130 mph one hand on the wheel, filming with the other one! WTF!?

Personally, I would have stopped short of forced induction and focused on making it handle, but it is a journey for this guy! And I bet his channel will grow. Well filmed overall.

I guess like many of us, he dumped a ton of money in that car.

Two things that are nice in his world: There is room for improvement and the bits aren't horribly expensive. A 911 engine is not easy to hop up further without spending a **** ton of money.

^^^ If I heard him correctly, the engine rebuild was $9000. That said, Mustang parts are cheap compared to Porsche.
