ill race whatever. dont really care if i win or lose.

330' and I use my pocketbike

i dont know what to say....so much win and so much fail all at once.

I know right? I have faith in the car but i hate LT1's... damn it!!

yours is way newer still not far

but you never talk about when you lose.

too bad I don't still have the Corsica...although I am willing to run the Beretta against you Mark

sounds good chief.

how about mine. Its way older (98) and it probably isnt much lighter than Brads.

Ok Mark, I'll race you. I even have a horrible tune!

i've driven both. Win goes to GA, IMO.

He tries to say he'd beat me all the time.

were you driving the jeep? lol

ginas just cranky cuz she drives a slow 5.0.

Am I the only one here that doesn't think it's fair to count a 150K+ mile stock 5.0 with a leaky exhaust and more rattles than a baby nursery.. to "every 5.0 on the planet."

we had the same mods minus the gt40 intake.

Well the gt40 intake adds like 134823471093horsepower to the wheels yo

haha. it must. at that point, i think its a drivers race.

Stocky cam? Stocky pullies, I'll give you shorty headers.. that leaked at the head pipes. Mufflers that were so rotted the exhaust passed through the case? The stock clutch that slipped 'a little'? Add in 150K miles of questionable maintenance... Oh yes.. all super performance mods .

Not saying Gina's car is any prize, it's stitched together from so many other cars it's a FrankenMustang and has had more engines than some people here have had cars.

If were going to play the whole "Mustangs suck! LS1s rule!". Sure. a stock 5.0 puts what, 205 at the crank, on a good day. An LS1 is a 'new' design. 345? It's not a fair comparison IMO. What did a 1993 305 equipped Camaro do for power?

1993 305 camaro does not exist, first year of the lt1 in the camaro and the v6 was the 3.4.


and for the record I had a 5.0 fox body make me look stupid on the highway last week.

oh boy here we go again lol

beat me to it. 3.4 V6, 3.8 V6 and 5.7L V8 in 3 different power options

i thought so

someone has studied ginas car a little too well. oh well. this isnt a gm vs ford thread. though we can still talk about the 2v 4.6 and the 3400.

nelson, lemme know when you run the beretta.

as for the 93 camaros, the engine options were a 3.4, and the lt1. first year for the lt1 in general was 92 in the corvette. the 3.8 was first put in 4th gens in 95.

The thing the 93 Mustang and the 93 Camaro have in common is, I don't care about either of them . you kids are missing the point. ANY car that has 150K will be crap, if it has lousy maintenance.

my current car has 125k on it and runs pisser. :shrug:

bet it wouldnt dyno to factory HP numbers. guaranteed.

who knows. maybe it would. car runs damn strong.

eh, lotta cars above 100k without absolutely PERFECT maintenance, especially more than a few years old lose power, just a fact of engines. It'd prob be close, but I bet whether it's a 302 or a 3400 or a 281 2v, even a brand new engine that hasn't been properly broken in won't make full power.

mine has 156k, and I guarantee it would dyno more than stock numbers.

I dunno, I think I just want to race someone really bad

My car has 51,000 and it better run better than stock numbers!


I just want to race somebody too, I don't even care if I lose!

ok i think that would be far. granted yours still has the power adder which gives you the upper hand

I'm ready when you are! I'll even keep the baby carraige in the trunk!!

i think he meant 1992? last year of the mullet mobiles..... everyone know chevy changed their body style the yr b4 ford changed their body style

Aye. That wasn't the point. I'm going to stop posting in the hopes this thread dies Maybe Mark will post he beat a dump truck next.

dump truck????

you're getting ideas arent ya?


Hey Mark (other Mark, Southbridge) I'll be right there! If we race for pinks, do I get to keep the baby seat too?

you should race big brads grand prix.

he wont hes afraid of new england

id be afraid of brads car personally. lol.

if its still got the heaton I wouldnt be too worried





LOL

No, I'm afraid of your cut springs. I'd race Brad's GP. Dont know what his mods are, but I dont care.

I'd race Brad! Then I have something to shoot for with performance! I'll take on Drunkie too!!

swap out the heaton for something more efficient. IMO.

nothing wrong with the m90. or the m62. theyve been around for years.

3800's with blowers have been since the early 90s and the 3.8s have been around even longer than that. they were obviously doing something right. the 3.8/3800 is one of the strongest motors ever produced.

see here....

OK first off do your research before trying to school me. That video isnt even a 3.8 its a big block twin turbo. How do I know? Because Ive watched that car grow for years. I had a GN look a like and there was a local guy who made videos every year and my car was in one of them(Nelson Febus who lives in CT)

Second off...if you knew anything about the M90 or M62 youd know that they have a horrible problem with heat. This isnt some ass wipe theory Ive developed because if you recall I have owned a M62 powered car(the redline)

Yes they make power but IMO its not worth it after a certain level...especially with the M90's on the GPs. From the factory they arent equipped with a H/E like the IRL/CSS's were and even adding one again isnt worth it with the availability of blower upgrades.


So my opinion still stands with I wouldnt be scared if it still has the heaton on it. Yes they can be quick with the eatons but IMO(in my opinion....afterall in the U.S. we can have those right now) anything with a heaton on it cant be fast....and yes that also goes for the Terminator cobra's also(which is why everyone ditches the M112 heaton for a KB/Whipple/Turbo setup.

So what do you suggest?

thats your opinion. you can still make ridiculous power with eatons. there is also a way to control the temp on them too.

and no, that g/n is not a bbc car. ive seen it when i was in arizona. its a 3.8. the school i went to out there has his original 3.8 in a display case. care to try again?

Well the GP market is a shit ton bigger than the SS/IRL market. And the IRL guys have the TVS for an upgrade. I mean if you arent trying to make gobs of power with the car then the M90 is great. Smaller pulley, cam, headers and a tune really wake up those GTP's.


For gobs of power Ive seen guys throw whipples on the car and make insane power....or turbo if youre feeling ballsy lol

Dont get me wrong I want a GTP in the worst way.
