Yeah people used to tell me the black grilles on the hood were the coolest thing coming down the road (when I used to drive it) haven't driven in but 2 times this year.

first off good kill.

second off this forum is so much better than ls1gto. I posted a kill on there a little while back about a tesla p85 with my 45X rwhp gto and a bunch of responses were like...ZOMG NO WAY THE TESLA IS SO FAST, NO WAY YOU BEAT IT BECUZ..etc etc.

Tesla wasn't plugged in, didn't have a 100% charge.

Thanks guys!

He had been talking about selling it for something faster lately, I guess last night was the straw that broke the camel's back My other brother said he called him asking him how to list it on eBay.

Anybody wanna buy a Tesla? Lol

Good job Snake! I had a feeling your car runs hard. With that weight and power combination, I am sure you will have many more races go down like this one.
Be safe.

I'm actually more impressed with the Tesla. It has similar power, yet weighs literally almost a TON more. And only got pulled a few lengths haha.

Thanks Gary!
Thanks Brad!

There was a small group of us cruising the river road by Alton, IL. One other encounter, but not really, was with a buddy of mine. He's got an 89 with an 86 motor in it, so the sucky E6 heads, B cam, Edelbrock intake, and it's carb'd. He tried to come around me but I downshifted and hit it, and it looked like he put a parachute out. We were just having fun. He's getting heads and likely a new cam soon.

Misty, let's hug it out bro.

Default 86 Mustang 5.0 vs. Tesla P85D

How did you make 350whp with your 5.0. Stock those things luck out 180whp, and even with a cam and heads it wouldn't see 300whp. Is the engine bored and stroked?

You can get 300 to the tire out of these with a bunch of different head and cam combinations. Your run of the mill guy uses GT40P heads and a B cam, with a Cobra intake - since that's what "most" guys use, people start to think that's all they're capable of.

No bore or stroke, stock 124k mile shortblock, rotating assembly, oil pan, you name it. Pisons, rods, crank...

These are Trick Flow 190cc heads, and a custom cam I had from my last build, which was on a Cobra intake and AFR165 heads with 1-5/8" headers, I now have 1-3/4" headers. Car drives perfect, drove it for about 3 hours yesterday for a local small car cruise we had. I've put about 2000 miles on the car since it's been done - about a month and a half. Very streetable and easy to drive. A/C, P/S, cruise control, it's a fully loaded 86 GT.




Cyber - I know, I should have found a way, but if I am not mistaken, I think hammer has some homemade device to hold his phone, that or Hio was just joking when he said that a while ago, lol.

And just think, snake's 350whp heads/cam stock block 302 is still a pretty mild setup, there's seriously nothing radical about it. He just knows what he's doing, unlike 99% of the heads/cam 302's most people see and then are led to believe they're not capable of jacksh!t.

350whp ISN'T jackshit though.
