i was looking at pretty much everything back when i made this thread i even did start looking at those 351w's but i got less interested and with school and stuff i just cant do it
i kinda wanted to know for ****s and giggles but i decided a while ago i aint dropping nothing unless my motor blows (4.9) but its gonna take a while i hope.
but i think yall are right about the mustangs. ive actually been looking at the 87 mustangs... Phew them things are a pretty good looking car, and it dont take much to make em fly

I wasn't saying that. You are right in your post. I was simply saying that If you have a car and you truck with the same engine, trans, etc. Chances are the car will win. I know traction, wether, driver, etc come into play. I know there are a lot of stupid fast trucks out there but I think there are more fast cars lol. I agree with you 100% though.
