All this ranting and yet no race. No wonder these get shut down.
Well, contrary to what the consensus would like everyone to believe in here.....not EVERY Mustang you encounter on the street is a slow POS. You never know if the guy you're lined up next to is built up better than you. It's best not to assume.

now i have full exhaust and 3200ss stall. my best 1/8 time is 8.14

and he now has gears, and full bolt ons, maf, gears, slicks, cai, x pipe, headers and tune... 3.90 gears.

Should i take him up on the $200 offer? he CLAIMS it has 370hp in it but i dont think so..
HAHAHAHA

Hes 17 and im 19? You know what that means? Grow up



Will your dick get bigger if we tell you that your car is faster?

Yes, Yes, & Yes.

It is now a 351 based motor.... which changes the journals on the crank. and standard bore size.

All parts that I have ordered can be had from a Ford Performance catalog. The carb, ignition, intake manifold, camshaft, and cylinder heads can be ordered out of a Jegs or Summitt catalog.


Sorry that you think all Ford Owners in the world are completely incapable of building anything faster then your 12 second ls1.

Minus the fact that the motor I put together (Did not do the cylinder head work - Hooper & Schneider here at Work did... ) is the fastest LSX N/A record holder as well.

Gee...really? The race never happened huh? Who would've guessed.

General Rules


6. "What would happen?" posts are not allowed. LS1Tech has one of
the best, if not the best, street racing sections on the 'net. Let's keep it
that way. The vast majority of the time the race never happens anyway.
Threads of this nature promote arguments and bashing. In short, we don't
need them.
