S550 Mustang GT4 build pics Build Thread

I completely agree - I remarked about the superb photography myself to the Multimatic team after the first batch of shots I got. These aren't snaps from a cell phone, they're real photography and show off the car beautifully.

And I suppose that deserves another couple pics

Amazing photos of what is bound to be an amazing car! Congrats!

Have they fired it up yet?

You may not be able to answer this yet, but I'm curious about the airbox. It looked like a GT 350 airbox not a standard, enclosed GT unit (which the GT4 race cars use). With the GT4 hood, the vents are above the airbox, so it will not seal to the hood. Do you know if they are building a separate lid? Looks like they removed the rubber hood seal. I have selfish reasons for asking since I may get the GT4 hood vents.

The car looks awesome!

I had a GT4 hood,
Could you post pics of the vents when possible? I’m curious if they improved the fitment like was said.

Seems like it fits quite well?

Looks like airbox is fabled/sealed to accept a lid.

Great pics.

I believe the stock 350/R airbox is a source of hood lift and intake leakage under hood flutter conditions. Obviously vented hoods increase leakage.

For my Race car build, I fabricated a Lexan lid and bolted it to the trimmed airbox upper. Will be interested to see how Ben’s GT4 build turns out.

I never thought of that, but that certainly makes sense. I also noticed MM had not installed the aero catch hood pins yet.

I think they're planning the same approach for the GT4. It's not final yet, but here's a more specific photo:

I have PP3 on my 5.0.

I did what Nick did... template available.

I’m in the process Of making a lexan block off for my GT 350 CAI. My Trackspec louvers are right over the CAI.
