THinking of buying a 06 Z06 or a custom Mustang I need some help

SaleenFan03 · 05-01-2004, 12:36 AM

I'm thinking of buying a 2006 Corvette Z06 or a custom mustang. I heard that the 06 Z06 is going to have 500hp 500ft and weigh 3000lbs. I was going to put my name on the waiting list until I saw the 2004 mustang concept GTR. I saw that Ford was selling that same engine. I thought about buying a 03 or 04 Roush mustang but I would swap that engine to the 5.0 "Cammer" crate. Ford said the "Cammer" engine makes 440hp and 400ft . I thought about the Roush because I like it the side svo exhaust, there suspension ( .96 g) , and the front grill. I would change the hood to the 2000 Cobra R so the engine would fit. I would also like to change Roush's rear spolier to a Saleen 281 spolier. I also saw that the "cammer" crate was 150lbs lighter than the 04 Cobra engine. I would also like to supercharge this with one of Fords superchargers. I think all of this would void Fords warrenty. This Mustang would be a fun project so, please everyone tell me what you think. Thank you for your time.

Between the 06 Z06 and the Roush I would go with the Roush and drop and motor in it. The power difference is not all that bad, go with the best style, the mustang that is!!!

But if it was me in the situation I would wait on the new 07 SVT cobras they are coming out with!!!
