honestly i have no idea....ive beaten 5.0's before easily but i have AWD...but the thing about a 5.0 is you never know whats in them....i mean if you can't hear the SC whine thats fine but they have strong motors and ive seen some react very well to bolt-on's. i know this didnt help lol...best of luck though.

 

if hes got slicks and he wants to run from a stop, he knows (likely) what hes talking about. When racing someone like this, use your imagination, expect the most mods. Its from a stop, your gonna be at a serious disadvantage, you might not catch him at the end of the 1/4.

tell him you want to go from roll or nothing.

 

stock good running 5.0 run around 15.1's with a good driver. So with slicks and a few power adders he's in the mid 14's. If you race him at the strip, your 60' is going to make you or break you. If your spinning through 1st entirely, your probably not going to catch him, but with a 2.0 60' or maybe lower.. you'll catch him, but if this is going to happen on the street tell him 0-110, first one there wins. Because if it's on the street he's going to have a major advantage over you with traction, compaired to the strip.

 

You're going to have to race him to find out. There are a lot of Fox bodies in my town. Some have an exhaust, slicks, and that's it. Others are running 12s but look/sound the same as the near stock ones. Hard call to make.

 

Mustang guys = full of shit. At least around here. Every Mustang around here is "stock". Even the guy who goes 11.92.

Honestly, just race him and find out. Don't put any money down though. I can't imagine a stock Mustang needing slicks.. make sense?

 

to be fair from a stop, he needs to give u two cars cause he's got slicks on or tell him to put street tires on which will be easier for u to beat him.
and yep, mustang guys= full of shits. they talk alot of shits about 4 bangers.

 

i raced my friends 92 5.0 with straight pipes and intake...and some other little things.
we went from a 40 mph roll, and i walked him.

97 spyder gs-t.

 

ok so last night when out and meet up with this guy. once i saw the car and how big his slics were i knew i was in trouble. also found out he had full drag suspension so that didnt help either. well needless to say i lost by about 3 cars . i did however beat a supra from a 30 and 40 roll wanted to stop but whe wouldnt

14.7 is the stock 1/4 time for a 5.0L mustang. With slicks, 4.10 gears, 10-minute tuneup, and a short belt to bypass the AC and Power Steering, they have seen 12's. Slicks on the street aren't really good for traction, you can get the same with drag radials.

Because there is so much out there, it's not hard to make a 5.0L foxbody car fast. Hell, a friend of mine bought a coupe last weekend, and for what he paid for it, he got a good deal. It should run a low 13 as it sits, high 12 with traction. All it has is a cam, longtubes, and 4.10's.

 

5.0's are never stock

 

5.0 's are slow unless you they are actually built up.. REAL SLOW

 

My friend of mine, he has one of slow pathentic 4.6, but when he blew up his motor, he rebuilt it using a 5.0 stroker set up, I don't know what the fuck was done to this thing, but all motor is around 380, then he has two different set up for nos, 100 shot and a 200 shot, the 100 shot, he's about 520, then 200 he's like fucking 680, and thats not bullshitting u, I seen the graph, the things a nos happy engine thats for sure.. but this things sounds like it also has work done to it. but those engine aren't slow for the money he spent, he only put I'm thinking about 4 thousand into it, thats not a lot for fucking those numbers..

 

idk just a update i ran into him today at the track no way is that mother fucker stock. he ran a 13.3 on whats is supposed to be a "stock" motor. is it possible i doubt it he has full interrior and everything like that just slics and skinnies and full drag suspension

 

What is a 306 capable of? Im supposed to run this mustang gt 87 model with a 306. I believe the 306's are the 302's bored .030 over. I dont think this mustang has nothing more than a cam in it.

 

I have seen a mild cam 306 on a street tire run a 12.90 at the track..

well actually, mild cam, heads, upper and lower intake, 75mm TB, and clod air intake, w/ straight through exhaust.

And that was also with a damn good driver at the wheel.
