Yea his car is probably gonna be pretty fast man and your probably right he will be probably making 350 to the crank and even with that he'll probably still beat you because his cars lighter... and if you come to find out he has a stroker just don't bother especially if your cars stock....

n/a 302 put down low 300's and had a 100 shot to throw on top of it and raced my buddys 02' TA with H/C/I and DR's. Mustang put around 5-6 cars on him. Had him from the honk! The best part was that the guy with the fox was so damn modest about the whole deal. He could have very well been putting a bigger hit than he did. No way of really knowing. I always second guess what those damn fox body's have got under the hood.

This thread's funnay.
OP - you sound like the cocky one. Granted none of us know how arrogant that fox owner was, so we can't gauge on that, but you seem pretty up there too. That's MO anyways.
When it comes to foxes, you never know. That's the point. Don't ASSume anything.

So some guys from texas cam to cali for work, one of em has a 93 cobra the other an 04 mach 1, so i got to talking to the cobra guy and he said hes getting some work done and his ***** gonna smoke me, basiclly said forged internalls upgrading valvetrain blah blah blah dont care about stuff that adds no HP, whats importan to me is he said hes staying NA so no turbo or supercharger, now i assume hes gonna get a cam and some nice heads, but even with those hes only got 235 crank HP so maybe 180-200 RWHP?? so with the heads and cam maybe getting him to 350 if he get a BIG cam and som NICE heads. he said hes shooting for 400 i said no way your dreaming without FI or NOS, then it hits me, why would dump a ton of money on forged internals if you not spayin or charging, so i realized his forged internalls is also a stroker kit maybe from a 302 to 350 not sure how they're stroker kits go. he also said we can pop hoods and look around, well as we all know a stroker kit can't be seen so what you guys think?? more to the mods than hes letting on he seems pretty confident for a 93 cobra i am an 02 SS M6 stock
