Default Cecil Mustang
This is the car with the junkyard 6.0 iron engine. Add a Dominator 2X cam from Rapid (plus some other goodies) and this is what you get. Dave can come in and comment on the combo. Not a new best but a great run.

That's funny. imagine if he put an ls3 stock bottom end in it instead of the iron block, another 100 lbs out of the car right off the bat and a couple more CI the car's be running probably another .2 and 3 mph faster.

What's the weight on the car, I'm guessing 2800 to 2900 lbs? Damn mustangs LOL.

I am 6'4" 250lbs add all my 2 layer gear, not good.
I just refuse to give up the donuts and candy!
The car is about 2900 with me and fuel in it.
I think I should go by Delaware Park and see if any of those jockeys can drive!
