the guy with the 05 has likea few bolt on's but my 5.0 has cold air intake, 3.55 gears, new water pump, ford racing E303 cam, 70mm throttle body, bbk X-pipe with not cats, flowmaster exaust with 3in pipes, and a finly tuned valve train, and a few more little power adder bolt on's.

the 4.6 will win because it's a 3v, i know this because ive raced them plenty of times from a dig, and numerous rolls. now if you get a 4.6 2v to race you then that would be a better match. but the 3v's have too much power for a stockish fox to beat them

like I said ive beaten them with just bolt ons.. plus you have an 86 vert, not exactly the fast fox with bolt ons
