oh wow...WS6/SS only make a "few" more horse power in stock form, I would't say MUCH slower. Once you start modding that is out the window. All of your suspension mods are going to help you more from a dig and not a roll. I promise my little TA puts more power to the street than any bolt-on ws6/ss.

God.....damn.....OP i wish you lived closer. Id give you your prefered roll speed and the jump. I think you would be a little surprised at how unbelievably bad that guy was at driving for you to beat him

Honestly I've only owned v8s from a small block to fbodies and a vette. I'm far from being a ricer talk what you know ok I hate when ppl talk **** hiding behind a computer. These cars are far from unbeatable considering the fact anyone with the money or credit can buy one but can they actually drive it to its potential.
#24
You do realize a ta is much slower than a ws6 and the ss cars I have driven tons of fbodies some are slow as hell, some fast and I'm talking with just basic bolt ons, not all of them are exactly the same I've had both you can see the pics in my profile Fox bodies are a joke I wouldn't even run them when I had my ws6 and all my cars were sticks if you got a ta 3600 stall and 3.73 will give that 5.0 a nice run

the car being a hardtop accounts for a good bit of weight.
2000 a4 all option z28: 3480
2000 a4 b4c: 3380
both cars on the same scale one after the other. both with a full tank of gas and only what came in them from the factory.
biggest problem was my buddy's b4c car trapped 107+ with 135k miles on it, completely stock. i was trapping 105ish with a lid only. only dif was i had 273s....and -100,000 miles hahaha.

Lets do the paper math here.
Boss 302 - 3550lbs, 385whp, 3.73s, 4 under drive gears
Hard top F body - 3350lbs, 300whp, 3.42 gears, 3 under drive gears.
This is assuming the boss is factory stock. Mine made 396whp with an air intake.
Come on now...
My friends boss... bone stock... in a 1500 da.... first track visit in this car.

Yea I wish to I'm tired of going to the track and seeing mustangs pick on ricers since It seems like I live in rice city the cops hate them lol. I'd enjoy a good run.

ok and theres some stock camaros running 12.5 or 12.6 so its possible with the right driver your car can still be beat. yes they have a hp advantage starting off but they still can be beat by a bolt on fbody and im not talking heads and cam b/c its considered bolt on. my oppinion fords still playing catch up while theyre still picking the cars that whooped theyre *** before the superchargers and after its gonna happen again because idk if youve noticed tons of ppl are swapping ls engines into everything including mustangs. its funny cause theyre even beating some of us with our own engines. i personal think the 5.0 is garbage id take a windsor or cleveland over it or the 5.4
What ever you're smoking on, pass that ****!!

You don't have a clue. WS6s are not faster than a T/a. What little power the WS6 has over the T/a is taken away by the weight gain when comparing comparable year cars
Wow-thats a fox body killer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!! You have a low 13 second car-WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldn't waste my time running you with my fox body 12 years ago when it had lot less power. A new 5.0 would beat you with a good driver broken in sorry. Lets not mention what a Boss would do to you.
T/a was just as fast-Ws6 heavier due to the sway bars,17 inch wheels etc...when comparing same year cars,.

i promise you wouldnt leave me and only one way to know and thats to race we can compare number etc all day but it all matters where the rubber meets the pavement. i havent seen you drive and you havent seen me drive or what my car can do so theres only one way to find out maybe you should come help these stang owners out. so they can stop picking on ricers. they wont even run a ford lighting come on. you know it deosnt take much to beat these cars a few bolt on heads and cam is over kill it deosnt even have to be a huge cam. my cars lighter than yours i dont have a lot of engine work but the trans is geared pretty nicely its not gonna be like racing a normal stock bolt on why dont you look this trans up and the other mods i have and see how much they help i dont burn out coming from a dig or roll even with stock tires
