    Ford racing video

    I have been working with John Griggs @ Griggs Racing on my Mustang project. He is designing a Torque arm/Watts link/Coilover rear suspension for the car. This is his convertible with the exact parts.

    Enjoy!

    Thumbs up

    There appeared to be little pitching as the G40 went through the curves rather flat or the co-pilot had neck muscles of steel, Really neat Brent and very smooth.

    Un-cork a NASCAR motor and you will get a lot more than that.

    aluminum,steel sleeved block
    bilett crank
    JE light weight pistons and pins @ 13.5-1
    TFS heads
    solid roller
    T&D rockers
    Victor intake
    good box pan with scraper and screen to keep the crank dry

    Not hard to make 700hp, just takes $$$$$$$$$$$$$

    ??

    Brent,

    You and I know:

    It takes a lot more than 700 shaft HP to put 660 HP to the rear wheel.

    So what has Griggs got under the Hood?

    WOW! That looks like a blast, but I don't know about being a passanger, might have to change my shorts.

    Rick,

    The combination he mentioned makes that kind of power all day long in a Mustang. The Nascar motors are over 750 at the wheels these days, and almost 850 at the flywheel.
