Careful with that one man, your gonna start a real **** storm. Even though I came from 2 4th gens and a c5 vette, when I say how much I love this car or defend it... I am just another 5th gen douche bag

My car has A\c powersteering. power brakes. i plan to dd this thing drive anywhere i want with it. it doesnt have any swaybars because i dont like turns. manual windows mirrors etc. i ground up built it to my own spec . ive done all the work myself except paint
chassis setup. wich hiho did an excellent job on. so were the only two to touch the build

This is the way I see it and I guess part of why I love the whole N/A 4.6L thing...

Look at it as you are a 6'2 guy 280lbs and you are fighting a 5'9 guy 180lbs. Sure if you beat him that was expected and no one makes much deal about it. But if the little guy beats you then everyone gets a kick out of it.

You could but not why I was curious. If your goal was just easy power then there is nothing wrong with the way you are doing things. What should the car weight with you in it after the swap?

Nice analogy , but you made a statement that a stock mach can run posted 5th gen times which it can't. A some what well drive manual 5th gen can run 12's, mach can't unless all the planets align.

I agree, I wish I could run half of these people that talk **** on 5th gens and shut them up. Cause half of them that talk **** don't have a clue what they are talking about.

What's the point in doing all this if you aren't going to brag and talk your **** up?
