TT right?

 

So do I, and I agree with you- but that's an LS1.

These SB Fords however, are absolute gas hogs.

 

yup

 

I'm gonna have to agree with you there. Even when it was stock, my 4.0 V6 would only get 25-26mpg highway and 17-19 city.
I bet that **** will drop to 10mpg

 

Have you modded up your cobra yet??

 

mine does ok for itself. still get well over 20 on the highway

 

Just your standard ported blower and 2.8 upper pulley

 

haha... it's true... she knocked off a 1.99 60ft and ran a 13.1 @ 106 with 89 octane on a much warmer day,.

 

700+whp @ 11.0:1 afr will drain a tank in a hurry if you don't keep your foot out of it!

 

Half the reason LS1s get such good gas mileage is the transmission gearing... I'd like to see what a Mach 1 would get for gas mileage if it had a T-56.

 

dont forget the heads....breathing has alot to do with it as well...ie. LS6 style heads

 

just thought id thorw a little gas on the fire, my car has run a best of 12.01@111 on motor alone. the car made 305rwhp and 345 torque on a mustang dyno on the 91 street tune. it gets 26 mpg if i can keep the foot out of the throttle. my best nitrous pass was an 11.79@126 with a 150 shot but i broke the differential and half the teeth off of the gear on the launch and still ran that. it makes 485 rwhp and 600 fot lbs of torque. anyways just saying they can get decent mileage and still make decent power. oh and mine is just a lowly little 2v too.

 

Guess what, you just smothered the fire because you just threw BS on it....

 

iiinteresting

more fuel for the jay vs. ed corral shitfest i guess

just curious why you're switching

 

okay, its got 3.73 and weighs about 3080 lbs

 

Timeslip or it didnt happen.....

 

You're a dumbass if you think a car that weighs 3000lbs can't knock off a 12 flat with his power and gearing.

 

T minus 3...2...

 

Sounds about right.

 

ford "c" heads flow a tramendous amout. FACTORY heads have been well into the 6's with just a port.
