Default He couldnt leave me alone......

I was already pissed and i just wanted to enjoy my double cheese burger from FatDonalds....but he had to try to show off in front of his girl. I was pissed because the exhaust shop put my muffler on wrong, intermediate pipe connected where the passenger tail pipe shoulda been. Way too quiet and of course not getting my str8 thru flow...but anyway.....

I turn out onto the main drag running thru Cancun, Mexico. I initially hear a loud off road exhaust and new it was a stang. He pulls beside me in traffic, shifts to neutral and lets me hear the rumble. I'm pissed because my $hit is quieter than a damn Sentra. Playing with me in traffic when i cant get on it, he downshifts several times while cars are stopping me from getting on it...goes on for several mile.

I finally get a clear opening and pull even to let'em know im game. I notice the huge cowl hood and 347 stoker emblem....nasty idle..crusing at 60, i give'em the hit, he jumps out a car, i smash into it and pull instanly two cars by 80-90. I let off and slow down to about 55 to give'em another chance. I give'em the hit again, let him go up a car length, smash into it letting off at about 120, he's a solid 4.5 cars back. I let up and slow down to crusing speed, him nor his lady friend would look at me. He finally guns it and rolls outta site.

Car was a late 90's stang...97 thru 99, before the termi body style. Once he pulled ahead he had no mufflers, could see a diff cover, and that idle was pretty choppy. Wide tires and nice wheels, looked forged or polished aluminum. Thats about all I know. What do the 447 strokers normally run?

Sounds like your typical GT40P headed/Cobra intaked 347. Weak...All old 5.0s are weak.

Thats why if you get a mustang and its not a mach or cobra better damn sure get a fox. 360 hp in a 2700 pound car(with simple typical weight reduction) is pretty stout for a street car now an sn95/new edge with 360 hp and an extra 700 pounds aint gonna be much.

Fox to SN95 isn't that much difference in weight. This is a myth.

Mustangs where put on the road for one reason, for GM muscle cars to bully!....Coyote? who names a motor after a week *** animal who even in packs aren't even scarey? Sorry I was venting. A mustang made me burn 10 bucks in fuel to remind him of what i just said. New 5.0s are fun, but the headlights are bright in the rearveiw....

If your talking a full weight 93 gt and an sn95 no it isnt but when you figure that most people are daily driving the new edge and sn95 they wont cut the weight. Take a 4 eye car and get rid of all the stuff that you really dont care about just having a play toy i/e air cond. power steering smog etc you can get the weight down quick. Cant remember exact #'s but im a little over 2700 lbs.

Take a 94-95 GTS without smog, AC, or PS. You are also talking 2700-2800

430 on stock fuel system and air box, leaned out at 5600 rpm, been tuned since then on bigger injectors and a lid. probably not making 15-20 more but i thought 430 on stock fuel delivery was pretty good...... but fun is what these cars are for...play!!! Anyone got a clue what a lid and bigger injectors is doing for the dyno numbers ?
