Collaborating with John McAn from Hot Rod Magazine, they embark on a thrilling project involving the transformation of a 1967 Fastback into a drag car powerhouse. What they uncover under the hood is nothing short of spectacular - a coyote 5-liter crate motor that promises sheer power and adrenaline-inducing performance.
As they plan to showcase the revamped Mustang at various high-octane events, including Roadkill Nights and the prestigious SEMA show, the team faces unexpected challenges with the car's electronics.
