Cool 4.6L ford mod GXL from indy

Hi everyone,

I was lucky enough to buy back one of my previous drift cars from a friend recently, When i owned her, she was still a rotary, i replaced the suspension with custom ksport coilovers, poly bushings, DTSS delete's and a couple worn OEM pieces to basically tighten her up for slidey slidey time's.




It was fun, but then the bane of all car guys i got divorced and moved out of state, forcing a sale of my rx7 which was at that time under the knife, rotary removed, 5.3l LM7 on the engine stand, nv3500 maybe or saving for t56 in the works....not wanting to sell her to just any moron i personally contacted my friend in drifting Bill "highlife" Cook and made him an offer he couldn't refuse for the whole she bang (think cost of a really nice roller)...

I moved to NOLA it sucked I moved back, sans car, decided instead of jumping straight back into the car world i would get a Mortuary Science Degree, vowed to not tune a car till i got that degree...finished this summer 2 and half years later....decided to buy a drift car or chasis to return to the sport....guess what i get offered...by Bill, yes, my old chasis back. He had just finished a couple shake down events and had it running perfectly with a get this....

FORD 4.6L modular v8 from a police crown vic, mated to a t45 from a mustang gt, the car was a GXL so it was already 5 lug, 5 pot brakes and the suspension is still my set up. Life can be reall awesome some days.
