Ok thats cool , thats amazing , would love to see some pics of it to see how you have it set up , i have a 3800# truck with 280 RWH that runs 14.3 , i have had a few 5.0 stangs but never a 4.6 but i know a few people that do & they won't run anywhere near that . So im impressed , pics please ... Lew
I once parked my '96 t-bird next to my friends '96 Cobra Mustang. I was amazed at the height difference. That equates to a BIG difference in aerodynamics, and really comes into play at higher speeds.
You can have a 3800# brick wall (truck) with the same engine and gearing, and it'll be slower than a 3800# MN12. Buy a big margin.

One thing to remember, he's using a '97 T-bird. The MN12 line includes the Cougars as well, from 1989 through 1997. The 'birds are lower and more aerodynamic than the Mustangs. It has been well-known since the T-bird SCs came out that they top out at a higher top speed than the Mustangs of the same years. Even with the (internal Ford politically motivated) slightly less-powerful supercharged 3.8's in the T-bird SCs.

Non of the links are working for me.
but the good news is I just talked to mike at 5 star tunes.
My V10 and my vic are both going to be faster than they are now.

That video with the orange mustang-he was spraying that car-a 200 shot if memory serves me right. He was NOT happy that a N/A Tbird beat him-even though it was time trials.

What Ford really needs to do is offer a F series pickup with a 300HP TWO STROKE engine in it.
IS there any production car right now with a two stroke in it. It would be an awesome thing. Since I got my new E-Tec I have been thinking it they can make a outboard two stroke that gets better fuel economy than the 4 strokes, has cleaner emissions with out a cat or anything like that that why can't they put one in a car or truck? Oil injected they would have lots more room to fit it and weight would not be as big of an issue.
