Yea you might think that. I think that gears have more to do with it in his situation.

They both do, but weight is a consistent burden.
Gears also make a difference as does the different induction system. Then there is the clutch fan vs e-fan. Many variables.
My car stock with 2.73 gears was faster than a friends 89 with 3.08 gears. Not much but a little. Mine was speed density with lighter seats, his had MAF(restrictive stock) and heavier GT seats added to 5.0 LX cars in 89. Mine was consistently a 1/10th quicker in the 1/8 mile. Same driver.

This and the 3.08's pretty much explains it IMO. How did the '60's compare.

best '60 in the 85 is in my sig.
best '60 for the 91 was 2.133 and it was actually spinning off the line
