AmericanMuscle Turns a Zero Into a Hero

Published by AMStanger on March 29, 2010 in General. ( 45 Comments )

How do you take a Mustang from stock to super-powered? This winter, we took our ’05 Legend Lime V6 on the road to Swarr Automotive in Collegeville, PA. The mission was simple–to add more horsepower and style to the bone-stock ‘Stang (and boy, did we ever; just wait until you see the final numbers!). We’re releasing the super cool 4-part project videos on April 6th, but we’re awesome, so we have a sneak peak video to keep you salivating ’til then.

Guess which mods we’re using, and you could win a $50 AmericanMuscle.com gift card! The first two people with the most correct, specific (saying ‘CAI!’ isn’t quite specific enough) guesses will each win a $50 AmericanMuscle.com gift card and a wicked cool AM t-shirt. That’s a heck of a prize for just guessing! All you have to do is watch the video below, and leave a comment on this blog entry letting us know which Mustang mod you think we’ve made. If you’re the first person to make the most correct guesses, you win. It really is that easy, so watch the video and let us know what your best guess is!

You can submit multiple guesses, but don’t spam the same entry multiple times.

About AMStanger

AMStanger started life as Emily Wood. She fell in love with the automotive industry, and the Mustang in particular, at her first job working as a cashier at a mom and pop auto store. Since then, she’s held just about every job in the retail automotive field. Though she’s never been formally trained as a mechanic, she’s never shied away from taking something apart or working on her own car. She likes to defy stereotypes and get her hands dirty, but she does get tired of being called ‘dude’ all the time. In her time, AMStanger/Emily has served as a parts slinger at one of the biggest auto parts retailers in the country, worked as a service writer at another industry giant, and has served as an installer and a commercial specialist when needed. She spends most of her time on several large Mustang forums, and is pretty sure she has the best job in the world. More posts by AMStanger

Sumitomo High Performance HTR III Z Tires, (255/45-18 in front, 275/40-18 in rear)

Mustang Rocker Panel Stripes with “Mustang” lettering (Matte Black)

And to guess:

Looks like matte black vinyl under the rocker panel stripes

Definitely some lowering springs (Eibach is my guess), likely with matching suspension components (shocks, struts, sway bars)

And From the sound, some aftermarket shorty headers. I’ll guess JBA Cat4ward

And I’ll bet you finished out that intake with a BBK 70mm V6 Throttle Body.

And I won! I can’t believe it! This is awesome and this is the best aftermarket mustang business in the world.

http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/EngineShowcase/index.jsp?engId=LS376515&engine=LS%20376/515&sku=19171225&engCat=ls Mustang Matt

I have an ’05 Mustang GT, and I got tired of getting my doors blown off by everything on the road. I dropped in an LS 376/515hp small block Chevy engine, and I haven’t lost a race since, street or drag strip!

I have the best of both worlds- a Mustang with a Chevy engine!

http://americanmuscle Jordan Wagers

Really dude why would you say that. I bet when people ask you what you got under the hood and you say chevy the think you are stupid. You should have just modded the heck out of you gt engine it would have been faster and more exicting to do. But hey at least you have the body of a mustang.

http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/EngineShowcase/index.jsp?engId=LS376515&engine=LS%20376/515&sku=19171225&engCat=ls Mustang Matt

It’s simple, dude. I prefer the Mustang body to the Camaro.

Nobody thinks it’s stupid when all they see is my tailights! Any moron can bolt on parts, how many people can swap in a completely different engine and make it work properly? Not many, I’d wager!

Jordan, any time you want to run me for money, just say the word. You’ll be the one looking stoopid.

http://americanmuscle Jordan Wagers

Ok so your saying that my 1967 Fastback with a Ford RacingBig block producing 580 rwhp and 600 tourque with t-lock and much much more. Could race agianst your so called “GT”for money, well i would be tempted to do that. Why dont you stay in your Small Block Class and when you get the balls to drop a big block in your gt that from ford racing then you will know how it feels to go fast until then have a nice day beating street cars. You just dont drop a chevy engine into a ford or the either way it just makes you look stupied.

http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/Parts/showcase_detail.jsp?engine=3 Mustang Matt

OK Jordan, here we go…

How intelligent do you think someone looks when they display a profound inability to spell or punctuate properly?

Maybe I will stay in my “Small Block Class” and upgrade to a Chevy LS9 engine with 638 HP and 604 ft. lbs. of torque. Unlike your “Ford Racing Big Block” specialty engine, it’s the standard production line engine in the ZR1 Corvette.

Or, as you suggest, I could drop in a big block- a Chevy ZZ572/720R. That’s the crate engine with 720 HP and 685 ft. lbs. of torque. That’s quite an improvement over Ford’s M6007 with 521 cubes and 609 HP. The Ford’s corrected HP is 580 (5% less), so the Chevy’s corrected HP would be about 684. That’s a bit of a difference, isn’t it, Jordan?

So the LS9′s corrected HP would be roughly 606. And 606 is more than 580. Given these facts, Jordan, why would you insult a small block Chevy??

Also, the small block weighs much less, so it possibly increases my power to weight ratio, and definitely improves handling.

BTW, I’m sure you’re wondering- I got a great deal on my Mustang GT because the engine was shot, and I got a good deal on the Chevy engine because the owner lost interest in a project car. I had the desire and ability to build something different, so I did. A few friends helped.

Maybe I’ll see you at AM’s Mustang show, Jordan. I hear Rt. 202 has a few good straight stretches of highway. Bring cash. A lot.

-SLP Brake Control Kit / Solenoid Switch
-Eibach Pro Lowering Springs
-Eibach Pro Damper Shocks and Struts
-Eibach Anti Roll Kit (Swaybars)
-From the sound, some aftermarket shorty headers. I’ll say JBA Cat4ward

-Saleen Rear Blackout Kit
-Rear Brake Light Vinyl Tints
-Rear 3rd Brake Light Vinyl Tint

Based on the video, these are my guesses:

PERFORMANCE:
- Pypes 409 Stainless Steel v6 Dual Pipe Conversion kit
- JLT 2005-2009 v6 Cold Air Intake and SCT SF3 custom tuner kit (no Bama tune if it was
over the winter, since you guys just recently partnered with them. It may have one now
though.)
- Eibach Pro-Kit Springs (05-09 v6)

WHEELS & TIRES:
- Black machined 2010 GT500 replica wheels (18×9)
- Sumitomo High Performance HTR Z II tires (275/35-18)
- Bullet lug nuts

LIGHTING & DECALS:
- Smoked Mustang headlights w/ CCFL Halo
- Smoked Turn signal tint
- Smoked Quarter marker light tint
- Smoked Third brake light tint
- Smoked Rear brake light tint
(I would assume the smoked third brake light/rear brake light tint KIT was used)
- Mustang Rocker stripe (probably left from stock, not just recently modded)

STYLING ACCESSORIES:
- Rear blackout panel (magnetic)
- Quarter window louvers (painted Legend Lime Green, of course)
- Stack Racing hood strut kit
- 8″ Shorty Antenna (black)
- Cervini Mustang Pedestal Wing (painted Legend Lime, as well)
- Black Bullitt style fuel door (05-09) (Even though I didn’t see it, I think you used it)

ADDED BOOST:
- Zex wet nitrous kit
- I would also guess that you changed the gears to either 3.73 or 4.10s but since it wasn’t
shown in the video, i’m not sure whether we are supposed to guess these mods as well.

Rich McGrory

Well lol first this is Bills car because its in the AM 2010 calender. i am going to say it had the following mods

JLT intake
BBK 70 MM TB
SCT X3 or Livewire tuner
bamatuning/ american muscle custom tuned ( if tuning was tune after Doug and bama joined AM)
since both tires where smocking there is a T-lok and im sure there are 4.10 Gears
Zex Nitrous kit, probably a 100 shot with upgraded colder spark plugs

to give it some sound i am sure you have some BBK shorty headers along with the pypes true-dual conversion setup with X-pipe and there street-pro mufflers. with painted GT rear valance, also painted rear quarter window louvers. GT spoiler, painted hood scoop, also added some hood pins, black billitt fuel cap.

Rolling on some 20 inch black shelby racing wheels. i am almost positive they are wrapped in Nitto NT555 extreme tires.

possibly lowered with some Eibach pro srings.

thats all i can think of.

Whether i am right and whether i win or not that is one amazing ride and i would have no problem driving it.

I would just like to add that it appears the headlights are the Smoked 2010 Style Headlights for the 05-09 model. I just realized it after looking at AMs new products.
