just wanted to say, I have driven like 7 different Mach1's some 03's some 04's auto and M5 and 2 had full exhaust,tune Cai and I have driven only 3 LS1's 2 WS6's and 1 T/A all auto's and the LS1 hands down will beat ANY 4 valve Mach1 stock for stock and even basic mod for mod! the Mach1's need gearing to get revvin' but add a stall to the auto LS1 and that negates that! somebody should do a mod for mod test all the way up to H/C/I and nitrous and see where it all ends? I am also a stang guy here but have been a 5.0 guy(5.0 superior over the mod motor) for almost 20 years and all these car's,and motor's have their pro's and con's but thats the greatest thing of it all we have something to argue about! so let the battle's continue!

 

Must have been a 98 ls1 lol......


Mach 1s are def fast, but the newer mustangs are ok there nothing special

They run with LT1s and alot of LT1s are able to get away from them so there nothing big...

 

Stock for stock it is a drivers race. They are both low 13 sec stock cars. STOCK no drag radials, gears, K & crap filters, short shifters or anything else. How they came from the factory. The MACH 1 is harder to master than the LS1 cause of the lack of low end power, in turn harder to launch which brings me back to my earlier post. Most races are lost at the launch or before 1/8 mile. So with that being said, more MACH 1's will lose to an LS1 than the other way around. The LS1 are easier to launch and drive. So yes, stock for stock a Mach 1 can win, but usually dosen't

 

[QUOTE=2v-in-12's]Might make the same power, but only paid 9 grand for it. I can sill put my procharger on it for less money total than any Mach 1 I found. Same is true for any same year trans am or Camaro. QUOTE]

ok your making us ford guys look bad with ricer statements like this...you buy what you what and whats in your budget...and you mod it accordingly....everyones different...casue at the end of the day a mach1 with a prochager would still be faster and the cost isnt a factor....

 

still waiting 4 that first loss,just looking 4 a little respect 4 a great car .and who could dislike the shaker hood ,when we go to the track i will records a couple of ls cars and will post win or lose

 

Just making a point. Don't get your panties in a twist. The point is, Money makes speed. Who gives a **** if Bill Gates has a fast car, He should. Any rich man can make ANY car fast. I personally like to see how fast I can get it working on it myself with as little money as possible. A fast car built by a performance shop for a rich man is not impressive. My 12 sec mustang built in a garage after work and on weekends impresses me. With my wife being a pharmacist and myself owning my own programming business, I could have bought a 911 turbo and run low 11's stock. Not the piont. So from one ricer to another....do you get it.

 

same here i do everything , not the tune but i work hard on my car . single budget and i dont make alot.i will have my car mid 12s within 2 weeks , blood and sweat

 

Good for you. At least you get some satisfaction doing it yourself, not just an empty wallet cause of an overcharging speed shop. I actually used to be a technician. I have 6 ASE certifications and a pretty big assortment of tools. I would have to swallow my pride for someone else to work on my car. Im not trying to be an *** but we all have reasons for what we do. My 1st engine build was a 305 in a 67 camaro when I was in high school. Was not the fastest thing around but I built the motor from scratch, and ran it for almost 6 years,....before the tree made it run a little rough

 

guess im just a lucky man .the ls 1s1s i ran must have had had 289000 thousand miles on them what do i know, to top it off i dont care bring them all on ,i love to race love all american muscle lets just do it

 

You say you have your own programming business? What CNC??? G and M code??

13.90@101 you got to be kidding.........mine bone stock I mean less than 3000 miles ran it at commerce in Atlanta 13.40@108 and thats was with 2.73's lol

 

dont fool yourself mid 13teens in not braging

 

lmao I'm not bragging just telling the truth which seems to be lacking here. lol

 

me too, I do everything including the tune. the only thing I dont do is wheel alignments. I can afford the work but i love working on my LS1.

 

I like most all american cars.........but I bought my car in jan.of 2000 and have yet to be beaten by a stock mustang around here.

 

5 pages of the same ol' BS. 13 sec. cars all the same. Get lives.

 

stock 2v or 4v you dont even know what you are talking about

 

have another

 

Sorry CRAZYLANE actually, I sub contract network repairing for oil field companies in South Louisiana. I work will all different types of networking software. Sorry to mis lead you, I do not write custom programs. So call it a network repair business. I used to be a mechanic while attending college. I have 6 ASE certifications. Went U.S.L.

Spent 12 years in the military (Army and National Guard) if you want to question that, as a 63t which was later changed to 63m. Also was a combat lifesaver. Got out as a captain. Worked for Firestone and Goodyear as a technician while doing computer work part time. I started getting too much work on the side and decided to do it full time. I am a Pices, have green eyes and like long walks on the beach. Anything else you want to know. Oh, I'm 33

And its prior not pryor

Don't call people out, just read and comment. I thought this was supposed to be a no flamming zone?

 

Dude I had no plan on calling you out.... None what so ever. So get the stick out of your ***!!! I just seen you said you had your own programming Business, and I was interested in it, as I am a programmer my self... Sounds like you have a lot of knowledge in stuff by all the schools you have been to, But you are lacking in one area.. And thats stop being so up tight and hard, not everyone is wanting to start a war over a few questions...
