    I have heard good things about opentracker and lot of guys are very happy with their product. 

    For any suspension questions  I ALWAYS recommend people call Shaun and Street or Track.  He is very knowledgeable about anything mustang suspension related and will answer all your questions.   I bought my set up from him and talked with him a few times before spending any money and he was always very helpful.   He gave me several options for what I wanted out of the car and for what fit my budget. 

    I did go all out on the front setup, but absolutely love and wouldn't change a thing.  My car was SCARY to drive before and would beat the crap out of me when I drove it.  Much improved over what I had and car drives great.   I run 17" and 18" staggered set up, and while it is not pillow soft, it rides great and doesn't beat me up any more. 

     

    Good luck, there are a lot of options out there.

    I did a FiTech before the Holley was available.  The user groups for FiTech have some great info and are very helpful.  I have had zero issues with the unit and it runs and drives really good and even continues to get better the more I drive it. 

    I will say, don't skimp on the fuel pump and lines.  I used the FiTech external pump kit and had issues in the NC summer heat with vapor lock.  I just upgraded over the winter with an in-tank Aeromotive Phantom kit and it is a much better set up.  I also went to the the PTFE lines which are more expensive, but long term for the car a much better option, but not needed.  I ran the lines away from all heat sources to keep the fuel as cool as possible.  I put the regulator in passenger fender well and deadhead the feed line to the Throttle body and so far it is running great, and can't even hear pump after the car is running.

    I absolutely love the the FI set up.  One of my favorite upgrades and makes driving the car so much fun.  Great cold starts, no issues with AC, electric fan control, great throttle response.  

    I know a couple of people with the Holley set up that have similar experiences.  I think the support for FiTech has gotten better, but certainly lacking compared to Holley.  I have also seen the display for Holley and it looks much better than the FiTech unit, but both very functional.  I don't think you can go wrong with either.

    Good luck

    I would call Shaun at Street or Track.   He is very knowledgeable and can give you many options from basic upgrades to full coil over set up.  He is also a no pressure type of guy and will give you the info you want to know about and let you make the decision.  Even if you don't end up buying from him, I would recommend at least talking to him. 

    After speaking with him many times before buying I chose to go the coil over set up and could not be happier.  It was more than I wanted to spend, but the results have been great and i have no regrets upgrading.  Car rides and handles so much better than it did.

    Hey Doug

    No problem.  I am not in a hurry for it, since I have my whole fuel system out anyway.  I had planned to order a new neck anyway as an extra to modify.  I can always put my current one together if it takes a while.  Swapping out necks shouldn't be a big deal.   Thanks again for all of your work on this and understand you can't control vendor supply issues.  

    Thanks

    Scott

    Well I'm stoked to say the least. A bit more trimming and adjustment but I got it in place. I need to get some more steel to finish of the front mounts but otherwise it is in, bolted up and rolling. Woo Hoo!!

    LOVE IT!!!!!

     

    First saw this build on protouring.com and was amazed at the build and your ability.   Probably my favorite build going on now.  Just absolutely love it.  Keep up the good work and can't wait for more updates.

    I have a Unisteer set up with Big Block and long tubes.   I had to clearance one tube just a little where the knuckle joins the rack, but other than that there are zero issues.   I am also using a Ididt Column, just for reference.   

    Lock to Lock I may have less turning radius, but considering I couldn't start turning the car unless I was moving with my manual previously, I am ahead of the game.  Absolutely love PS.

    Agreed, I would do either red stripes and leave the black wheels or no stripes and a wheel with something else besides just black.  Either way car looks awesome.  

    You could leave it like it is for selling as the new owner may want to do something different with the stripes or the wheels.  Red stripes might not be for everyone.  

    I think you would be int hat 35-40K range as well.  Good luck with the sale.
