418w / 427w V8 Customers


Hi Guys,

Well I finally completed my '70 Fastback.  Your 418w engine package was installed flawlessly. She is a true Animal. So much fun to drive!  Very streetable yet all the power when you call for it. I can't thank you enough for putting a smile back on my face and the butterfles back in my chest when she launches.

Hi Guys,

Not sure if you will remember, but you shipped a 418W to me in Australia a couple of years ago. I have now had my Mustang on the road for a little over a year so thought I would send you a few photos and let you know how it is all going. A couple of reasonably unimportant external things were not as I expected when I received the engine (some international miscommunication) but it only took an email and you sorted it right out without any hassle at all. You could have blown me off given that I am 12000 miles away, but you dealt with my query very quickly and professionally - many thanks. I have no qualms about recommending you to international customers

The engine now has about 1500 miles on it and it is running sweetly. Once I had sorted out a few of my wiring gremlins, it started up immediately after sitting for almost a year, and travelling half way around the world! .

My friends now find excuses for me to start it, just so that they can listen to it, and after a ride they are sold. The thing is a jet - sideways in first and second gears at will. Everyone gets out with a grin from ear to ear, mumbling incoherently about going for another ride. All are surprised how streetable the engine is, given the major mumbo it produces.

I haven't had the chance to put it down the 1/4 mile yet but I will in the near future, and I'm sure the results will be impressive  - if I can stop it from wheelspinning!

Thanks again, and feel free to post my email and photos on your website if you wish.

Kind regards
