Alright, so a while back I went to the track with a few friends. My friend Matt has an early 90's 5.0 mustang, and he also has a 69 (I think) firebird with a 400. I've got a 94 Z28 and all three our cars ran 11.6-11.8 in the 1000ft. He put a set of slicks on the mustang and it will take down the firebird, running 11.4s.
As far as we know, all the mustang has is headers and exhaust, I don't know the specs on the firebird, but I know they have 6 grand into the engine alone. As for my LT1, I've got hooker catback and an electric cutout.
I was always under the assumption that the late 5.0s (still old body style) shouldn't be a problem for me to run down on the track. Granted, it has fewer miles, and is a stick... whereas my Z has 133k and is auto. I was pretty disappointed in the Z, and he was even more disappointed in the firebird. Is something above average on the mustang? Or is something wrong with my LT1, and his firebird?
