It's really tricky to go buy the SOP feeling when comparing a 5.0 to any car because our cars hit so hard down low. One of my buddies thought my car was faster then my buddies full bolt on Mach 1, even though I'm down a hundred horsepower.  |
So true...my car feels quite stout for what it is through the first 3 gears but it leaves that "want" when it hits 4th. I know the 3.55's are taller than most guys with my set up would choose but I want to use it for more than stoplight battles and plan a nice H/C/I in the near future. Emissions testing here in BC is my nemesis and I don't want to blow through 3 grand only to have a car that won't pass. I'm sticking to my guns in telling the guy I have him covered. And you know, although I really shouldn't, I'll be a tad pissed and disappointed if I'm on the receiving end of this one based on my impression of his car during the spin we took...
