Stall and drag radials. From a dig you will beat him. Did it all the time with those mods to 4 valves,2 valves with blowers from a dig.

Some people give old LT1 salads away. Put some Nitto's on some 16's. A Stall is going to take some time to get used to. A 3200 - 3600 Stall and a 150 Shot will get you in the 11's easy along with those tires.

Always get a brand new stall and be careful with buying used Nitrous stuff. NX Is the best way to go as I had both NOS and Nitrous. Run a wet kit and not a dry.

So after all the talk, it's fair to say that the 2V Mustang should beat the OP?

i was saying 15 because the manifold is worth about 10 and usually a well ported tb is worth an honest 5 but 20whp maybe pushing it but i see no prob with 15 from an ls6 and PP Tb

Yup no problem lol a 2v would put busses on that fbody...Unless the op does a mach 1 4v swap..


To the op dont go for a 3000-3200 stall your 3.42 gears will tighten up a bigger stall pretty well imo contact Dave at yank for an ss3600 or Chris@ Circle D or Greg@ FTI and look into a 3600 range with a higher str. The higher str will help street driving as well as give a harder hit for a better launch providing you get traction.

I think there are too many variables to fairly say anything until after they race.

This is the biggest bench racing thread of all time... ever.

So a big *** stall and DR's seems to be the going advice.

Here's my impression of that with the 100k + rear end...

"VVROOMVROOM VRROOM VRROOOM squeek CLANK!!" then the low tone of 50 or so High Schoolers booing and laughing as OP's head lowers and he wishes he would have thought about this whole thing a little better.

just sayin'.

Who said the rear end has 100k plus miles? The op's rear was gone through and 3.42 gears installed. I believe the op's car came factory with 2.73 gears. I don't think he will blow out the rear end with a stalled auto - if it was a m6 I would be banking on some cool breakage but not in this case.

I am surprised this thread has gone on this long and still no race video. lol Although I am not in favor of the op racing on the street - I'd like to see these boys, er...young men bring both cars to the track.

I thought they were going to run at a track. OP i was just bein' an *** with that last post. I wish you the best man. Worst case scenario is if something does break, you get to upgrade!

How much money do you have OP? Stalls aren't cheap. And if you can afford it, I hope you know how to install it yourself.

If you're going to start a thread about a race that is going to or might happen, make sure its going to happen soon. Don't start a thread then come to find out you're likely gonna get smoked and put the race on hold until you mod up. That's

OP, just go race the Mustang and come back with a vid showing your *** getting handed to ya.
