Default A bit of bench racing!

Well guys, its set! As soon as the mach comes out of hibernation in march i have a race setup with a 94 5.0... His mods consist of full bolt-ons,heads(no details), and a100 shot... My mods areJLT Rai, Magnaflow Catback, Magnaflow O/R X, NGK Plugs, MGW STS,4.10's, H&R SS, FLSFC, MM LCA's, Nitto 315 DR's, TB, and hopefully ill have enough time to get my NX wet kit and, gen 2 on before we go at it! Should be a fun night! Im pretty confident about the race!I know its a bit early but i just felt like i'd let you guys know!

Oh yes! Video taping will be a must! I talked to him today, he said he's gonna also have his tranny built next, not exactly sure what all he's doing but i think i still have a fairly decent chance of taking him!

Ya, I think you can take him. I don't know a ton about 5.0's but with your mods, a tune and nitrous I think you should take him.

WELL......the 5.0 in stock is putting down about 215-220, with a set of head right at 300, and with his bolt on's he's @ about 320hp (~280-290rwhp) and the 100shot 390-400 rwhp. So with your gears and everything you get up top quicker and if you were stock no chance, but with your 100shot its gonna be close....a camera is a must.

My nitrous kit will be set and tunedwith 125 jets... So i think i should have him, even with the 100 jets i think i'd be able to take him.. I've had my fare share of seat time with cars on the bottle and im pretty confident with my driver mod! I'll be able to get a vid. of the run and my first time slips in the mach!
