Just wondering if anyone in here is running their classic mustangs, i see alot about the newer ones racing but not a whole lot about the older ones.

 

i iwsh i had the money to race anything right now

 

i dont really race mine because its not that fast haha, but i was thinking about getting a supercharger. the only time i race is if i run into someone i know and we're just messing around. i never get challenged either because the 641/2-66's dont really look as fast as the 67+.

 

I would have raced mine if I had managed to get it running and hold on to it.

Rebuilt 351W, bored to .040 over, Flat Head Pistons, Procomp Ignition, Edlebrock Performer Intake, Edelbrock 650cfm Carb, K&N Xstream Air Filter, Roller Rockers, Mild Cam, T5 Transmission

She would have been a fun car, but alas, college is not that easy on me,lol.

 

yeah right now me and my dad have a 98 GT that if im lucky enough to drive it sometimes i mess around in it but nothing serious but hes selling it and hopefully gettin an older one, ill be helping him (doing most of the work) fix it up to be a hot little car so im jsut wondering how theyre doing on the streets

 

well stock they arnt as fast as the newer ones but they have a lot of potential. i have a lot of plans for mine as soon as i can afford it. just imagine a 408 stroker motor pushing a 2600lb car...now that would be fast

 

well if the one we get has the 6 then well pull it and put a 351W in, if it has a 289 in it though were gunna pull it strip it down and build it up, bored out forged internals 4vheads and intake, a nice cam, headers, ya know all the goodies, possibly a 9in rear if funds allow. It should be a quick little ride.

 

My little bro has a 69 mach1, 351w Trick flows, built AOD small cam...Oh, and a 125 shot.
Used to run it a lot, but the local track closed, nowhere to go except the streets, unless you want to drive two hours one way. F that!

 

nice setup

 

well just keep in mind that if you want to go from a 6 to an 8 that you have to pretty much replace the whole drivetrain. you will need a stronger rear end and tranny along with the v8 front suspension to handel the extra weight. personally if i were you i would just try to find one that already has a v8, it would actually probably be cheaper to find a 289 car and swap the 289 for a 351 than to buy a i6 and swap the 351 because of all the extra stuff you have to deal with. just my $.02

maybe even stroke that 351 out to a 408
