http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTvs2...layer_embedded this is a pretty quick six 273 gear...

 

I was wondering how they would run, glad someone did a comparo. There's gonna be a lot of high school girls with some quick cars here before to long.

 

Good vid, I was just wondering about this. All I know is I'm glad I got my LQ9/cam swap done on the Firebird. Even these little motors aren't playing "little" anymore.

 

i want to punch the guy who made this in the nuts....i ******* hate it when they put music over the sound of the car. evin though they prolly sound like ****

 

We all know Ford motors sound better than GM motors. I kid, I kid, but seriously, the sound better than my car at the moment lol

 

Very true1

 

Would've liked to see a roll race, be interesting.

 

I would want to run my GT into a wall if I could only pull a car length on the new V6. However, props to Ford for making a powerful V6.

 

Glad to see ford finally getting some nuts! SOOOO tired of the 4.6 getting smoked:>) I'm thinking a 2011 v8 in my future. I'm sure my wife wants one:> Guess I better get my heads put on first cuz I would hate for her to be faster then me!!

 

i wonder if insurance will rise for v6s

 

Cool comparo

 

How crazy. When was the last time you even thought about buying a v6 'muscle car'? This is impressive. TT V6 anyone? Haha

 

The V6 was really at a disadvantage at the start and held it's ground nicely the rest of the race. Maybe with some basic bolt-ons it could reel the GT in. The music in the the video...Damn! Is that what all mustang drivers listen too?

 

I wonder what the distance of that race was. Seems like the little sixxer was creeping back up towards the end. Of course, the 3V 4.6's always did run outta breath up top when stock....something the new 5.0 doesn't seem to have a problem with. I'm just glad I decided to do a blower back in the day.... all these sixxers are starting to get scary.

 

I wonder if a six speed manual with drag radials could get it done?

 

Well the 3V 4.6 GT's were what?........13.5 second cars at best? There's already been a couple of mags that have run 13.7-13.8 in the new sixxer. I think a tune alone might put the 3.7 right there. Definitely closer then I thought, since the V6 model is still down considerably on torque. I guess that new six motor really picks it up pretty good. I can only imagine how quick an ecoboost 3.7 powered Mustang would be. I'd bet that it wouldn't be very far behind the 5.0.

 

My 07 is a tuned auto with 331's it runs 13.30's im starting to sweat lol! might have to install 373's to stay ahead

 

Did they say the v6 had 2.73 gears?

 

Hmm, I would like to see a '11 V6 vs. an '04 V8 now.

 

If this video is any indicator.......the only 04 V8's that would stand a chance are the 4V cars (the Mach's and Cobras). I don't think a 2V GT would fair very well.
