Some Mustangs that look like 5.0's might not be 5.0's, because they have dual exhaust pipes, for instance. While some that don't look like 5.0's might actually be 5.0's because they are just base Mustangs with the 5.0 package.

 

Thats cool lol. Pony in place of the 5.0 badge.

 

reminds me of the old LX.

 

Dayam!



Y'all busted me!
Guess it's time I added this pony to my garage.

Lol welcome to the club. I got about the same mods as you minus the exhaust i got cat deletes just in a 6spd.

 

Ya theyre not fake 5.0's...i know both of them

 

Nice kills...I got a 00 damn near stock z that gets stock 5.0s all butthurt when I smoke them but I would too if my car was new and getting ran by 13 year old beaters

 

Define "near stock," and "smoke?"

 

Blower
3 buses

 

Didn't you know? According to some of the experts on here, if you put an aftermarket blower on a car it automatically becomes "heavily modified."

 

Ohhhh....thought it needed 5lb weight removal for that.

Doh

 

My cam is completely unnoticeable. Sounds 100% stock. It all depends on how you set the rest of the car up around small cams that determines how effective it all is.

 

Always good to see a ls1 getting it done against a stock 5.0 lol

 

As long as you run 11.8 or better you should be able to edge out a stock 5.0

 

Now you've got it!

 

Please give me a break!

 

Your sarcasm meter must be broken beyond repair...

 

And you better be running 11s flat against a bolt on 5.0

 

Now if you want to have all your bases covered on what "could" happen in a potential race, you would want to know what a car is capable of doing. So going up against a stock 5.0, if my car didn't run low 12s in the 1/4... I would assume I could have my hands full. And if my car didn't crack 11s and 116mph, I would be worried about a bolt-on/tuned 5.0. Is every driver you go up against going to be able to get the full potential out of their car? Absolutely not. But if I had an intake/full exhaust F-body (nothing fancy or creative, just basic stuff) I would fully expect a stock 5.0 to force me to be on my A game.

 

+1000 I've seen enough stock 5.0s run 13s now to know I have a shot but a good driver with a strong running one and I would be in trouble.
