Forged crankshaft is nice, wonder how that motor will hold up to boost?

Seriously?
That is a full out drag car, nothing on that suspension is stock whatsoever. A stock suspension mustang cant launch for shit.

He might have a brace but I'm not sure. Just know its still the strock irs. Its a local guy too. Has a 2.3 whipple. Around 6-620hp
My car cut a 1.54 60 on some drag radials and lca's. So that's a close to stock suspension
