Gotta see pic's of this!!! Insane build for sure!!!

[VA-Mach1]

That is a crazy cool parts list for your build.

I have 2 questions: Why use a real Mach1? If you want to change everything on the car would not a GT have been a better starting point for a total custom build? Unless the Mach was just worn out.

[Vndcatr]

Nice list.. Finally might have found someone with a bigger list than me lol..

btw, Why choose diablosport over SCT ??

[SuperMach1]

Sounds like a wicked build for sure! Good luck man we need pics tho.

[TTSaleen]

Good luck with the build.
You will love the Twin turbo 5.4! I cannot say enough about how much potential you'll have. My old 1998 Saleen was a brutal street car with that combo!

Mine is a big single 5.4.

I did this to a mach to be unique yes its a mach 1 but this build is very tastefully done. I did not hack the car up at all.

I wanted to do something unique and wasn't scared to use a low mileage mach as my basis.

Ill have pics posted as soon as I can!

The only thing mach 1 that is gone is the shaker. The mach 1 logos are still on it, still has the mach 1 spoiler and trunk lid. The car will be kept a Mach 1 but its a turbo mach.

The interior is different but the dash panels instrument cluster etc is still stock. The interior panels were wrapped black rather than silver but the car is very tasteful. It has mach 1 floor mats etc. I kept it Mach 1 but build it the way I wanted.

Sounds like you will have a real beast on the streets or strip.
