Nice rides! Whats the setups, I see an intercooler in the NB and want to know more about the green car... I feel like ive seen that car somewhere before, maybe a ford v8 based build?

thank you. I live in MO close to STL Yes the green one is has been my project for 13 years 5.0 swap no kit all hand made. 8.8 Ford rear end just had posi installed. axles and driveshaft are built rated at 400hp so that’s my end goal. I’m gathering parts now for smaller yet wider wheels this winter, i have tuckin99 flares/feal coil overs/ and wilwood big breaks waiting for an install off season. Then I will focus on more power.

the red one is a newer to me project. Fully Built by
FM it was my uncles car for 15 years but he doesn’t have time for it anymore. It’s got some issues I’m preparing to address and also looking to change the ecu from hydra being it’s discontinued he said it was last dyno at 310hp. the turbos I’m not very so Milyer with so I’m going to be learning as I go.

Wow and welcome! Nice intro, man. Neat cars for sure. Would love to see some build threads for both of those toys.
