In the newer Mustangs, the automatics run damn near as well as the manuals. Plus it almost eliminates driver error, so I doubt it would change much.

I believe it. Just got back form a ride with my friend's new bone stock G8GT. That 6 speed auto is awesome, no deadspots. I think an A6 in the stang would hold up to a 6 speed LT1 just fine.

There is something wrong with having to pay a trade show union worker $1000 to plug in an Ethernet cable to a socket at a Chicago trade show. What about business owner's rights?

Unions have a LOT of holes where they pay workers a lot for pretty much nothing. What do you think was one of the contributing factors to GM's financial issues?

I don't need unions in my line of work, but I still support them for other industries such as the trades.

Need I remind you I never said I was a Bears fan? Need I also remind you that this game of X team beat your team can go on foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever?

I was just giving Sean ****. I don't really have a team, but I'm happy when the Rams do good, I don't have a dislike for them at all.

Unions suck and are outdated. Most are controlled by organized crime.

(For everyone else, this guy^ is the LT1 owner.)
Put headers, ory, the shift kit you have , and 373s. The mustang will have to do a lot to beat you(blower or n20). Not saying this because im an lt1 owner but im willing to bet that the LT1 will respond much better to bolt ons than the mustang will. Its common knowledge the new cars usually come with better intakes and exhaust manifolds than older cars came with. Everyone knows the factory LT1 intake and exhaust manifolds blow donkey *****. Headers and ory=28-30 rwhp. Headers, ory, intake, cb, and gears would be the very first thing I would do to an Lt1 car if I bought another. Those mods will net low 13 second passes and about 300-320 rwhp.

If you re-read it, it's not my car. That post you quoted was to my friend, the owner of said LT1. The stang actually will respond decently, especially from a tune. Going from 87-93 is always nice.
