how do the 06's fit? isnt there a backspacing and/or offset difference?

[lib88stang]

05-07 offsets are perfect on the SVO's and looks badazz. I just got a set of Bullitts for the 91 notch too so now both my cars have them.

[J-rod]

what is your plans for the tri-bars?

[Martin0660]

Troy, do the center caps work on the front? I've heard yes and no, curious if they work for you.

Jared - the SVO suspension is 1.5" wider on all 4 corners that the normal fox body stuff. Its nice for handling, but a PITA at the same time, really limited wheel selction until the '05 and up stuff came about.

I sold the tribars last year and put some old school 5lug mesh wheels on it for now.

that's nice. I like the Ford centercaps. I luuuvvv Bullitts on anything. They even look good (as Crager knock-offs) on GM F-bodies. :goodidea:

Are you going to be tracking the car or just autox/drag/street use?

[Killercanary]

Damn you Troy, I just spent the last 15 minutes downloading and resizing your pics to put them up here for you and I see that you got it done. I didn't get your voicemail until 12:30 as I was working on my engine.

They look GREAT on your car, its was what it needed!

Burnin' the midnight oil on this project I see:)

[Killercanary]

LOL! I'm quickly running out of time and I'm tired of looking at my expensive shortblock sitting on the engine stand! I spent the night pulling off my $75/piece head gaskets that were stuck to the block because I left them on there since last year. :mad:

The goal is to have the car running and the roll bar installed by Carlisle which is the first weekend in June, then it'll be painted and done for the year.

[yeahloh95]

sorry paul i found a resizer and taught myself ,now just to decide on a color for the calipers ,


and fx-man , the car will not be open tracked

[fx-man]

and fx-man , the car will not be open tracked
Cool:thmbsup:they look great but if you were gonna track it I'd swap in some non-drilled rotors for that.

[yeahloh95]

i am planning on a brake upgrade later that will mean bigger rotors and way more pistons in the calipers :goodidea:

[somethingclever]

and fx-man , the car will not be open tracked


I thought that's what SVO's were built for!!! :sticktonge:


Looks good nevertheless.

[fast4ord]

[White5.0]

[INSANELY CRAZY]

[yeahloh95]

[One Sweet Day]

[Martin0660]

Its kinda funny, with the 16" waffle stars, the SVO rotors look to fill the wheels, with a 17" they look small. lol, stange.
