I am posting this for my good friend. He is just becoming a Firefighter/EMT and doesn't have time to finish his project. This is a copy and paste from his Cragslist ad.
This car, before he blew up the first tranny was the sickest street car I have personally ever driven. The car handles like nothing else I have driven.
You may post question on here and I will post his replies.

This car has well over $15,000 invested. Below is a list of most after market parts:
Motor was stripped, hot tanked, honed and rebuilt less than 50 miles ago.
FFM Forged pistons and connecting rods
- Federal Mogul X or Z rings? They were the best I could find and very expensive.
Vortech V-1 High Output Supercharger.
Edelbrock Performer Heads & Intake (Upper and Lower).
Crane Cams 1.72 Roller Rockers.
Lunati Custom Ground Cam.
BBK 75mm Throttle Body.
BBK Ceramic Shorty Headers.
BBK Racing H-pipe.
2 Flowmaster 40 series mufflers.
Auburn PosiTrac with 3.55 Gears.
Subframe Connectors.
3pt. Monte Carlo Bar.
BBK Adjustable Camber/Caster Kit.
Megabite Jr. Upper and Lower Control Arms.
TSW 16" Rims w/ Bridgestone Z rated Fusion tires (less than 200 miles).
Accel 44lbs. Injectors.
McGriffin High Performance Radiator.
Melling Oil Pump and Shaft.
Autometer Monster Tachometer, Oil Pressure, Temperature, and Fuel Pressure.
Vortech Boost Gauge(Needs Replaced).
Crane Cam Fireball Ignition.
A9L Computer with SCT Chip.
50lb. Mass Air Meter (Brand New).
255 in tank fuel pump.
TRex inline fuel pump(Came with H.O. Vortech kit along with 8Lb. Pulley, and Different Crank Pulley).
Rebuilt T5 trans.
SSBC 4-Wheel Disc brake Conversion.
Smog system has been removed but car still has A.C. and Power Steering.
During rebuild I was told it was important to tap all oil galley plugs for security with the higher oil pressure and I did so.( This was my car, I was building it for myself and never one time took a short cut).
First Off, I am not out to screw anyone so here is the scoop on my baby...
I bought the car about 3 years ago and there was a short in the dash harness somewhere. The car ran fine but occasionally had a mind of its own. Two years ago my transmission gave out and I had to replace it. While it was under the knife I decided to rebuild the motor and replace the stock came since that was about all that was stock still in the motor. By the time I finished the motor I was short on money and paying for school was a bigger priority over the car. So the car sat in the back of the shop. Finally,I finished the car about 6 months ago and took it to Dayton 5.0. The car was running very rough and Mike (Owner of Dayton 5.0, who is the Mustang Guru we all wish we could be), spent hours trouble shooting everything. After canceling everything else out (including replacing the new 50lb. meter) he found it came back to a short in the dash harness (same issue when a I bought the car). He said it most likely originated from someone tapping into the harness to run the Autometer and Vortech gauges, and it was frying my computer. Unfortunately it took 3 computers (Two A9L's and a SpeedBrain) to figure this out. After the bad news I loaded the car up, took it home and here it still sits in the back of the shop. I have another harness and steering column with ignition switch that is good. The car has been scuffed sanded and prepped for paint (I will primer for an addition $300). I wish I could keep the car and finish it but I just got married a month ago and bought a house with no garage and I cant keep it in the shop because I now will be atleast 45 minutes away and know I won't ever have time to work on it.
Because of the issue at Dayton 5.0 we couldn't get an exact reading on HP and Torque but Mike calculated that with my exact setup the car will be between 490 and 520 HP and between 475 and 510 Ft. Lbs of Torque. The car is still very streetable with the 3.55 gears and the way the car is lowered along with the firm suspension and reinforced frame work..."It is mind blowing how this car sticks to the road, its like riding in a Ferrari!"...
All three computers come with the car. The SpeedBrain works and has the software but it is hard to find someone the tune it because of its configuration. Both A9L's can be rebuilt, it is normally $100 each but these things are as rare as gold and you WILL NOT! have a problem selling them for $200 each. If you do the math, fix both and sell one and you got yourself a rebuilt A9L for free...
Other miscellaneous parts that go with the car:
Vortech 24lb. Meter (Still in box but not needed due to much larger one already in car).
GT Side Skirts.
Battery Relocation Kit.
Original Injectors.
So, all that is needed to be done is install harness, motor, rebuild computers and replace bellhousing (It was dropped and cracked but shouldn't be hard or expensive to get another).
This is a perfect project car! Good Luck
