Love the color on your goat...that orange gets me every time! You take yours to the track? Curious what it ran with your mods since thats basically all my brother is looking to do to his. He wants some 3.91 gears and possibly longtubes but with the stock exhaust.

We'd love to line up with a bolt on mach 1. I personally think the GTO has a lot more top end, but we can do rolls, digs, whatever. The GTO actually launches decent, but it really shines from a roll.

Too bad you didn't run this GTO though. Like I said, I have a pretty good idea of how it would go as well.
Hopefully we can get the car to the strip soon to get some numbers. Thinking it'll trap around 110ish.

I refuse to argue about it anymore because all that comes up is "Mach's have gone 13.0" and are dead even with LS1's which are dead even with LS2 GTO's because Ford + N/A 4.6 = Gods Engine
Still waiting to run across one of these super fast bolt on Mach's....nothing against them just want to see because everyone I run theres an excuse about the driver being bad or starting in the wrong gear..
dont even get me started about what those magical 4.10 gears do for them lol

I would put my money on the GTO based on personal experience. Drove my buddies 04 GTO w/ gutted cats and K&N intake vs. other buddies 03 Mach w/K&N intake, accufab tb, catback, tune, 4.10 and nitto R's. Mach would pull about a car in 1st gear but the GTO would end up 1-2 cars by 120ish.

Sounds light for that being the weight with you in it. And what mph did it do uncorrected? Because I believe the GTO will do 110 mph uncorrected, granted the DA here is most likely different than where you are. Regardless, around here, I don't remember seeing any super fast bolt on mach 1's, but I keep an open mind.
Just before we raced when the kid wasn't looking, I put a nut and bolt on his throttle blade to limit it to open 3/4 of the way.

I think it's funny that this is the only forum I visit where anyone defends mach 1's. Around here, mach 1's are an after thought and no one even races those turds anymore. my .02
