Scary to think what a Hotcam will do to his car.....or worse yet, a REx.

Well my truck might not, but my 98 WS6 does, along with LT's, Borla exhaust, 4.10's, Trick Flow heads,Crane cam, and also a FAST intake. So if you wanna bring that Ford by, I would be happy bust it for ya!

I was also Jokin, but you Ford guys should stick to the Stang Fourms.

I just get wound up sometimes cause I get tired of all the bowtie blindiness, that refuses to understand stangs or care to try and respect them.

Nothing wrong with a sharp truck......the make the best sleepers.

One of the best threads Ive seen in this section in a LONG time. Thanks for being honest about Mach 1s and their awesome performance potential. I still think that I would rather have a DSG Mach 1 over my SS...... but they are still too expensive for me to buy outright, and I paid cash for the camaro. Good kill....kinda

Well I have nothing but respect for Cobras, but I still think that most GT's are all hype. My buddy has a 02 GT and my truck stays with it until 100, but still a sharp car! and My cousin has a 04 Cobra M6 bright yellow with smaller pullies and its just nasty!

I have seen DSGs (Dark Shadow Grey) with the 'eleanor' rims. THey are really nice.

I was looking at Mach 1's before i really started looking at the LS series engines and knew then I had to have one. They look nice. They can move but not quite as much as an LS1
