The purple Mustang is now powered by a 5.0 L Coyote V8 (2012). It features Boss 302 oil pump gears, SVE radiator, and BBK longtube headers. A Quantum 340 pump sends fuel through 6AN lines to the motor. The drivetrain sues a Tremec T-45 five-speed manual transmission with a Spec Stage 2 clutch and built 8.8-inch rear end with 4.30 ratio. The Mustang rides on UPR tubular K-member, UPR control arms, and Strange adjustable shocks. A set of Cobra disc brakes hide behind FR500 replica wheels.
