Default automatics are funny...stang v6 vs z28

z28 bolt ons, runs low 13s, hung with a4 C6, beat an srt-10.......couldnt pull half a car on my friends v6 95 stang (m5)from 30-65(not much i know).

why:
dig = automatics good

roll racing when not at perfect mph= gutless

p.s. he is getting a tci 3500 soon(waiting install actually), hopefully he can take the ford....... ls1

What boltons does he have that he is still low 13s? By the way, even completely outside of his powerband he would of been pulling away from the stang...

Thumbs down

got to call bullshit on anything like this remotely happening, i've got a basically stock vortec 350 in a TBI chevy truck and i can easily pull a few car links on a v6 stang from 35-60. my truck isn't even close to being dialed in computer chip wise.

Could you please inform us what a car "link" is? I'm curious. I work for an auto manufacturer supplier and I don't recall ever hearing about these parts. Thanks.

Please tell me you're not related to Bob.

Since I got the 3600 TC installed anything below 60 in the cold weather = spin city. When she hooks = F'n badass
