What is your problem? why are you buying that piece of crap? Spend the money on your mustang and forget about the camaro. Seriously dude... don't **** everyone off with your stupid slowmaro problems....

GET the **** OUT OF HERE with those mullet questions

































yes it should have one, and im telling you youre going ot hate a optispark setup. for future warning optispark and rain dont mix. once it rains it runs like crap. im speaking from experience. something with how they can easliy get moisture in them. also plug wires like to burn up when useing long tubes. and its its a stick 2nd gear engaging gear is very easy to break. easier then a T5s 3rd gear. if it had a 4l60E watch for solonoids they like to short out and kill line pressure next thing you know youre out of a tranny. also a Fbody as a rear made out fo glass and power and traction they explode. its not like a ford that has a strong rear. their 7 5/8 rear is junk and only upgrades are 12 bolt or 8.8...yes a ford rear for a GM

Posts like this is why I look else where to talk to Ford people! I have one a$$ hole and I don't have a use for another!
This is the only web site that acts like this! I heard the same from others that have asked Ford questions, or other brands. Makes me want to sell my Mustang!!!
You must be afraid of the other makes! or know nothing about them!
By the way My 5.0 is the doggest car I have ever owned, my 4.3 V6 in my '93 4w S-10 Blazer runs circles around my Mustang!!!!!!!!!! and so did my "68 El Camino when it had the oem 307 2bl and it can't touch my VW Trike 4cyl.
By the way I have 178,000 miles on my 4l60e and it didn't short, but I do have porblems with my ADO, with only 92,000 miles.
And I have never broke a 12 bolt yet! or a 10 bolt! and I have put big horses to them, in my race car. The reason they/we use a 9" ford rear end is that it drops out, and the axles are straight so you can cut them and respline them easier, Not because they don't break.

It's to bad that the jerks on here mess it up, for all the Good people that are on here!

The 4L60Es do have 2-3 clutch drum issues, and the 10 bolt that comes in them isn't the strongest, truthfully. My buddy has a 94 Z28 and it's not a bad car. It's just too bad that he blew the engine this summer after putting some 1.6s on it and revving the **** out of it but hey.

And just remember, real gear heads aren't prejudice.

quik why is that you have a chevy truck, but you dont like z28s? Unless you are a way good driver and have a notchback, most the time camaros beat mustangs.

only ford car i like are mustangs

chevy trucks are PIMP!!!!

and the 93 LT1s are poop. if it had a 00 to 02 LS1 it would be a different story but seriously those first year LT1s are poop with so many issues


when i had my hatch basically stock except 410s, 3k stall and some suspension i did my fair share of beating LS1s. its all in tweaking the car...Hell i wear a Chevy Racing tossle cap but wont wear a ford one. but stang vs Fbody ill pick stang all day long. Fbodys are ugly, dont get me wrong i would take one but i perfer stangs
