    Excellent video! I'm an original owner of an '01 Bullitt and still love it today as much as I did when it was new. At just 63,000 miles, I've since made a few suspension mods and decided I wanted more horsepower, so I pulled the engine, stroked the block to a 5.0, added all forged internals, supercharged and ended up with 557rwhp. It's insanely fun to drive because it's so light and handles so well. I always felt they were a little underpowered, so I went all in on horsepower and so glad I did. It's the perfect car now.

      It sound like an amazing Bullit. At 557 it should really move! I’m at 450 with my ported Eaton and should be up to about 550 when I upgrade to my 2.2 Kenne Bell. Thanks for watching!

    Mikes Garage is one of the best channels on RUclips! He has stellar knowledge on Mustangs especially one of the best eras being the sn95 to new edge Mustangs! Bravo! Luv your channel!

    Great video. Thanks for the mention. I think it’s interesting that the Mach 1 actually had the same side skirts in the pre-production photo shoots. The (spades) mud flap pieces included. I also think it’s interesting that it had the same shifter bezel ring you mentioned but not shifter bezel and the radio bezel silver color as the Mach 1‘s IUP. Thanks for making a good video about the BULLITT. I always trust your work and research. Some people do a hack job at telling the BULLITT history. Danny Johnson has also done a great job with a BULLITT video. You might see one from me too with some interesting things later on. Nice job.

    Nice video Mike! Giving some attention to the Bullitt! I need to get another Bullitt video out as well last Bullitt specific video I did was 5 years ago when I first purchased my True Blue #4133. Now is a good time to talk about them since they are officially 20 years old and considered a classic car now. Thumbs up 👍

      Awesome! Thank you for the kind words. I created it because some of my friends thought the Bullitt was just a GT so I wanted to do a deep dive into the differences. Thank you for watching!

    Great video. I just happened to stumble upon it today through suggested videos. You got almost all the differences correct, though the strut towers have a clear coat as opposed to the standard GT's. Minor and not always noticed lol. I love my 01 Bullitt with 45k original miles. All original other than the usual maintenence items such as belts, tires hoses, ect. #4149 DHG

    A lot of these details get forgotten overtime, thank you for posting to youtube, its like a time capsule. So future Bullitt owners can know what was the normal when they came out. 😁 If there arent any videos to stamp the information, New buyers wont know how to see If one is real without calling their local mustang Professional.

    Great information. My brother in law had an 01 Bullitt. Loved driving that car but it was unfortunately stolen, crashed and eventually scrapped. I'm looking for a DHG car to buy for summer cars and coffee and a play toy. Difficult to find but I'll keep looking.

    Thank you for the points on the 2001 Bullitt. I have the black one and I like the way it handles. 65,000 miles on it now. It also comes with a higher capacity water pump,,,same as the F-150.
    Are the 2008 and 2018 Bullitts have the 3/4 inch lower suspension?

      Thank you for watching Phil. I’m not sure on the the newer Bullitts. They are all amazing vehicles, but my knowledge is somewhat limited to the new edge Mustangs. I am trying to learn more on the S550’s and the Coyote platform. Thank you again for watching!

    I use to own #805 DHG Bullitt. It was in a wreck so when it was repaired I had Cobra parts put on it and it looks bad ass. Get the Terminator or Mach 1 4V 4.6L and drop it in and you are going to keep up with the "New Edge" all day if they are tuned right.

    • @MikesGarageRoute66
      @MikesGarageRoute66  2 года назад +1

      Correct it is a 2 valve per cylinder engine or 16 valve. A lot of folks just refer to them as 2V and the 32v V8 as a 4 valve. Thank you very much for watching!

      @@MikesGarageRoute66 It will definitely be a manual-transmission coupe. Ideally a Terminator, but good examples have gotten so very expensive that many of them are just outside my means financially (my budget is 20k max). I would describe my driving style as "spirited". I will not be taking it to the track.

    Much Better "THAN". Then and Than are becoming misused at an alarming rate. They are not interchangeable, they are not even conjugates of each other. You might as well use THIN as well in place of than or then since words have now lost all meaning.

    Its not all that here why its over look at the end of the day its a 2v l had two Mustang GT a 2000 and a 03 special education Mustang GT its hard to get HP with out a blower or turbo not so with the 4v...Great car the Bullet for Wt it is but not that much over a GT tho get a 99 to 01 Cobra you can get way more HP out its 4v than the 2v up to 400 + with the right mods if you can't find a Terminator....Like a lot of cars we have today that's 400 + HP with out the blower or turbo Great video tho

    • @MikesGarageRoute66
      @MikesGarageRoute66  2 года назад +1

      Thank you for watching Booker. I completely agree the DOHC can put out a lot more power NA. The 2V still is a decent engine. The key to get more power out of it is porting the heads, larger valves, adding cams, and using a better intake. That really wakes it up. But with 8psi of boost a 2V can safely get to 450hp. Currently I have a built 4V. If you have a chance check those videos out. Thank you very much for watching!

    Springs, brakes, and 5 extra HP. That isn't impressive. It's an appearance package with a bit extra. I could easily make the same upgrades to my GT. I like the bullitt, but I wouldn't waste my money on one.

    • @MikesGarageRoute66
      @MikesGarageRoute66  2 года назад

      Thanks for watching John. The GT and Bullitt are both very nice cars. I kind of thought the same way until I read Scott Hoags book on it. It really changed my opinion.
