I have someone local (possibly) that has a modded, bolt-on TBSS. They want to run. How well do you think I'd do against this car. I know stock they are rated around 0-60 in 5.6 give or take and run mid 13's. I've seen a few of them Supercharged they ran high 11's trapping around 113.
Basically, I got into a little tiff with some guys on a ls1 truck forum, and they think crapstangs are exactly that, crap. Slow, ugly and with only 2K in mods, they will beat stock S197 GT's. So, I figured I'd kind of put an end to it, and race a faster version of their LSX engine. What do you guys think?

Hmm, I think basic bolt-ons and what not. But, even then, I still think they are high 12 SUV's at best. Even S/C'ed, it would be a very good match up, with the Edge still going to me. We'll see, thanks for the input guys.

Hows your hooking abilities? If your getting 2.0 or better 60ft. I can't possibly see you losing....Unless his mods are suspention,H/C, NOS.......Just bolt-ons only, you'll clean his clock..

My bolt-on tbss runs 12.6-12.7 at 105-106 with a 1.7 60'. The big brick doesnt mph very well but gets out of the hole great. When I was stock I ran some stock 197's and it was a drivers race I ran 13.79 STOCK.
What does your car run? The Mustang SHOULD EASILY out mph the tbss thats a no-brainer.
Not a Mustang basher!!!! I have had 3 of em and still have one. So please dont take it that way. Just trying to see where you stand with the Mustang.
I have not run the car, but I am able to launch my car well. Similar stangs, just saying, not saying I can do it but, have trapped well over 110. A few on **** with similar #'s, ran mid 11's and trapped 120+ with 4.10's, standard Vortech kit, and a spydershaft.
Are you located in IL?
Also, C6Vette- my tires are YZ W Rated, and even launching at 4500 RPM, they will hook after a second of spinning.

Not sure what I want to do with the stang yet. If I pulley it, I'll doa 13-14 PSI swap, with a conservative tune, and put down around 500 whp and about 430 wtq. We will see.
Certain places want over 500 bucks to do the swap and tune. Not too pricey, but, can't budget it yet.

You do realise that even if you win they're prolly just gonna pull some bs like "Yeah but you have a Mustang and this thing is a brick."
Probably not!!! I am pretty sure right now that whoever set this race up was supposed to be grabber vs a friend of mine. **** for all I know it could be me, since my truck is the bolt-on one. We will get some races off make some vids and post win, lose or draw.
