Well I finally got to get the fish out on the road.I have put 700 trouble free miles on it the last few days.I sure do like the power generated by the stroker.The only thing I don't like is the 3:23 rear gear.It is beautiful on the hiway but kind of a dog off the line. Found a little spot to...

No I never used GG1.I thought about it but ended taking a new Ford color called W6(Green Gem) and modifying it to get this color.W6 was actually a lot darker so we added a little yellow and some larger flake to get the end result. We ended up spraying samples of 9 different colors to come up...
