Default My 5.0 vs S197

I won from a dig and let off when he was at my fender... He claims no traction when he didn't spin at all consider 1 you can hear he only barks into 2nd and two he rolls of the line! He killed my from a roll but it was also my first time driving the car with the5 speed swap. I think once he pulled two cars from the roll I stopped because i'm not using the correct driveshaft.... Anyways he has JBALongtubes, 3:55 gears, Bassani X-Pipe, Borla Stingers, C&L Racer CAI, and a Dynotune from LaMotta Peformance.

-MAC Prochambered H-Pipe (no cats)

Sad thing is he rolled of the line if you watch closely you can actually see it...

I have ported e7's, t5 swap, 4:10 gears, fomoco shorties, mac h, flows, trickflow upper/lower street heat, 76mm maf, 24lb injectors, e303 cam, and16 degrees of timing. I am not tuned and the car is running very rich, and that was my first day driving the car after the 5spd swap. I also have a 100 shot/150 shot of nitrous but I wasn't spraying in the video...

Just wondering,were you on a drag radial and was he on street tires.The '05 plus stangs are no jokes with good drivers.People bitch about the poundage but they are very quick and can take a basic bolt on fox .Just thinking a bit cause that car had no problem running you down even with the camera man in it.

I had my friends old school 351 fairlane kick my butt..... when i was n/a but now that i'm s/c he doesn't have a prayer
your 5.0 is lighter than our s197 cars.... We may have you on horsepower.... But you have more torque i think.... and just to add one more thing ..... the push rod motors sound way better than the modular .... i miss the sound of a big chunky cam
