He's still digging a whole. lol

The new edge sn95 mustangs with the 260hp sohc 4.6L have been around since 99. Being a car guy their performance and engine specs should be second knowledge.

I don't just read about f-bodies. I read about mustangs, chargers, vettes, and very few exotics.

Expand your horizons or you will be made a fool of yourself when you race a modded GT or Cobra mustang because you have no idea how much hp VT stage 2 cams add or wtf a pi swapped 96-98 GT mustang will run.

Just like that crossfire learned a lesson.

Oh and just so you know. A bolt-on 05+ GT (minus LTs) is good for low 13s and a they make pulleys for the cobras so beware of those.

Cool bunch of guys. I stay mostly in off-topic. There is a great variety of personalities there. Been there for 5 years now.

I was a big mustang guy and now I'm moreso just a car guy in general.

I have to correct people on there all the time about myths the mustang guys come up with about f-bodies (like no way a cammed LS1 will run 11s ) and I find myself having to correct people here about mustangs.

Seems there are ignorant people on all car forums.

I mean its only a mustang. You know the direct rival automobile of the f-body. No reason to know anything at all about them.
