oh another thing i should add...

im about 6'7" - 6'8, what are the odds of me actually FITTING in a mustang? b/c i dont fit in my friends firebird. but back in the early 90s my dad had a GT 5.0 and he fit fine, but he was only 6'3


I seen dude that high fit into honda civic and drive it all day long. Then I seen a dude around 5 8 say mustang is crampy. Depends on you.

I know guy who done exhaust, suspencion, and runs low 13s on mach 1 with everything else stock, no bottle or blower. Itd go cobra though, more pedegree in cobra. IRS you can swap out. Cobra motor is also different than mach motor and will take more punishment if you going radical.

for the love of god leave irs alone!!! IRS is good, just stiffen it up and some people PREFER it over solid axle. Its just how you drive, so dont say the solid axle is more performance oriented because thats just not true


COBRA FTW

the 3650 isnt THAT bad. granted...its no t56...but there are plenty of supercharged stangs with the stock 3650 still holding up.

my friend is about 6'4 275 or so...and he had a lot of trouble fitting in the driver seat of my car. he drives an ls1 camaro now with not really any problem...except that i think he cant drive with shoes cuz then hes too big...or something ridiculous like that lol.

Edit: o...but my vote is Cobra...definitely.
