95 Trans Am v. 2003? Mustang Mach 1
#281
awe..teh age old ls v. mach debate.
It cracks me up everytime. You know how many mach owners have NO IDEA how to shift their car? I see it all the time...shifting at or near redline in every gear...it's pathetic. They think it's a 99/01 cobra or something. The mach 1 is not setup like other mustangs. the powerband and gearing isn't your traditional mustang. The cobra's shift at high rpm, the 5.0s at a lower rpm...the machs need to be shifted at various rpms. most 'newb' drivers don't know that so the shift like ****.

Different Heads..different cams...but the MACH1 motor still makes the power. "true" power..not "advertised" power. The older Cobra's (non SC) advertized their Hp to be higher than they really were.

Machs on the other hand were under rated. They're closer to 320, but advertised at 305. go figure.
