ok i have a 98 Z and my friend/ sisters bf has a 03 mach 1, beautiful car, feels fast going thru the gears...i do really like this car, but my sister seems to think he can hang with me, or for that matter beat me, currently the car runs 13.61 and consistent 13.7s, well before headers, catted y and converter.......are these mach 1's that fast, everything i see on them is in the 13.8-14.1 range at BESt!!,and seen one at atco pull a 14.30, so, what do these cars run bone stock!!!

With the 5 spds I say the average Joe can pull 13.5-13.6's stock. I think the fastest stock time was 13.1X

They do come in auto and I'd say higher 13's maybe low 14's for those. Could be a drivers race when you run him. Good luck. -Mark

They are definitely no slouch. I have seen many run low to mid 13's stock.

Mach 1's are ls1 fast. However they make their power in the 1st 500-660 feet. The ls1 should own it on the top end, stay in it and you could pull it out in the last half.

I have a friend with an 03 mach 1, 5 spd. He has 4.11', axles, x pipe, cat back, and a 75 shot. On ET Drags, he runs 12.5 ish on spray, and low 13's motor. and his 60' is consistently below 1.8 ( that is the upper range of his 60' times).

They are fast fords, be careful.

A friend of mine has a 03 5 speed with a K&N cold air kit, X-pipe with catback exaust. His best run to date is 8.9 1/8 and 13.9 1/4 so far. He is not that bad of a driver either.

I would have to agree with you but I have seen 3 other Mach 1's also run about the same times as he does. I do think the 60 foot has some to do with it also.

Infact i watched 2 03-04 cobras run last weekened at the 1/8 track and one ran a best of 8.3 and the other was a 8.4

Both had pulleys and other work also.

My wife bought an 04 Mach1 auto trans car. We took it to a charity drag race event in the cold October Michigan weather. It ran 13.74 at almost 101 mph totally stone stock. But remember this was a very good air day.

thanks guys for all the info so far

I doubt that it would lose too an all motored ls1 unless it had head work or cams or nitrous. Supercharged Machs put down anywhere from 440-460rwhp with 8psi and low 11 sec times and Desert Fox was right they are about even, stock giving the adavntage to the ls1 with the mach faster or even down low and the ls1 faster up top.

What does a stock mach 1 put down from the factory? I could of sworn I have heard anywhere from 280-300. So a supercharger at 8 psi is going to give them a extra 140-160 to the wheels?

I know my 03 Cobra with a cat back, kb cold air kit, accufab throttle body, a 2.93 pulley at about 12psi and a full tune put down 438 to the ground.

I dont see a mach 1 putting down 440-460 on just a supercharger at 8psi.

Maybe I am wrong here.

I think he may be a little generous with those #'s. But I would say around 420. Remember the blower is not a roots type it's a centri blower so peak #'s will be higher but won't put down the tq compared to your car. I also think that your basic blower kit will either come with a 8# or 10# pulley. But 140-160rwhp is not uncommon when slapping on a centri on these 4v's. -Mark

That could be true. I forgot to add the torq. Mine was 463 to the wheels.

Bitemark46

Ya you'd definately have more low end. Typically centri blowers with stock pullies will have 370-400rwhp. Also under the curve you'd would have alot more power. If both cars put down the same peak #'s but say 3500rpms you'd may have 50-80rwhp on him. -Mark

well i know for sure one of the ls1 cars has a cam and bolt ons, the mach1 had some 4.30 gears and dynod 435, and got out ran from a stop and a roll. the other car was spraying a 100 shot (i went back and found his post, my bad). im just that imoresed with htem.

Like it's been said...
Machs are nasty, especially from a dig. They are set up to pull hard of the line, but LS1s have a better top-end so the longer the race is the better for the LS1.

Stock times are anywhere in the mid/low 13s...depending on the driver.
