The custom turbo kit, which places the Garrett turbo right up front for maximum air and maximum intimidation factor, was fabricated by Gash and his Barely Able Racing buddies. Although the engine was originally intended for his C7 Corvette, Gash knew it would be better suited for the SN95 Mustang he had nicknamed “LTRex” and coupled the engine with a two-speed Turbo 400 from RPM Transmissions. His New Edge SN95 Mustang featured a triangulated four-link solid axle rear suspension and it was the perfect platform to pique his interest. Purchased as a roller, Gash cut into the chassis the same day he picked up the Mustang and quickly began ordering parts including a Team Z Motorsports chromoly roll cage kit, tubular front end. Gash knew he wanted a turbocharged small block engine combination, and opted to go with a GM 6.2-liter Gen V LT as he already had one in the process of being built by Chip Estes of Estes Automotive. Coming from a background of racing late-model Corvettes, Gash wanted to get away from the less-than-ideal Corvette independent rear suspension when he focused on assembling a more serious small tire drag car. Together with his friends, the “Barely Able Racing” crew worked nights and weekends putting together Gash’s project car. Put together during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown beginning in May of 2020, Haltech USA’s General Manager Eric Gash built his “LTRex” 2000 Ford Mustang in just under one year using a mashup of parts he had lying around, then boosted it with plenty of Garrett turbo power. ![]() With a Garrett turbocharged Chevy LT1 engine under its hood, this Haltech-controlled Mustang dominates medium prep drag racing. Thanks and Have a Great Day.Ma“LTRex” Chevy-Powered Ford Mustang Finds Plenty of Medium Prep Success with Haltech and Garrett Turbo ![]() I\'ve been searching for a while to see if I could find someone who can take on this type of project for me, I appreciate any help you can offer. My question was do you guys take on this type of project, or would you be able to refer me to someone who does? I live in Atlanta, Georgia and I would arrange for having the car transported wherever it needs to go. I\'d like to take off the entire front suspension and go with a new front end frame so I can add a small block chevrolet with a procharger. I\'m not at all concerned with trying to keep it all original, I bought it basically for the body. ![]() I want to build a 10.5 outlaw car, a 2007 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, I know it\'s a front wheel drive car, but my plan was to convert it to rear wheel drive with mini tubs something for the street that I can take to the track once in a while, most to take to shows and drive anywhere. Hello, I\'m trying to do something a little different than what everyone else is currently doing. Mustang Bolt On’s 1964
