I just watched with my own eyes a Bolt on Mach 1 beat a C6Z06 4 times at the track last week and I dont know how. The Z didnt miss any gears and he was running it all out.

Yes...don't be scared by those #'s. Procharged Mach's can be very hit or miss. I have several friends with them and one with a turbo. The turbo one runs really good. A good well thought out bolt-on ls car can out run them (not the turbo one). The 4.6's power band seems to be even more narrow with boost. Last weekend one ran a 12.6 and one ran a 13.1, they should be faster and no doubt some of it is driver error....but their mph is'nt great either.

Did he run the car in the 11's or did he buy it and the previous owner run it there? If he did'nt take it to the 11's his self...go spank his *** from a dig, but you better be able to drive

Looking at this picture reminds me of this one guy that swore his mach 1 was stock and it took about 10 of us to look over it for 20 minutes to figure out that black air scoop was hiding a black painted eton LOL

So he actually did 12.3 @ 113 in the 1/4, think 11 sec was previous owner. I figured he had full bolt on's but he just told me he doesn't have LTs (who puts a Procharger without LTs?) but does have a 3500 stall. So now I actually feel a bit more confident to run him w/ my car being the way it is.

The Procharger is easier to install than the LTs for one.

Of course it's more expensive but I've heard people say they've done LTs on a 4V car and swore they would never do it again. They are an absolute PITA.

Should've never got a Mustang in the first place It does acutally look like it can be a PITA to put on.

It takes a little time but it is not that bad and it is worth the effort imo, and to HioSSilver what were those car's with pro charger's trapping ?

+1...The 4V motor goes from one side of the engine compartment to another. No room and no access from the top....motor has to be lifted and tilted. The passenger side is worse than the driver side.
