SVE Pace Car Gets A New Look

Once the new Aluminator XS Engine was installed in the SVE Pace Car, we immediately turned our focus toward a new look. The old look had served its purpose but had become “played out” to a certain degree. We went back and forth with ideas for what felt like days. Finally we settled on the 1979 Pace Car tribute look.

Ford Racing Mustang Axle Back Exhaust M-5230-MGTLA (11-14 5.0L/5.4L)

I think we can all agree that Ford hit a homerun with the new 2012 Boss 302 Mustang.

One of LRS's good friends and customers recently purchased one for his stable. Although he was amazed with its... more
