Thumbs up 0 to 60

Looking at capitalford.com today and found some interesting numbers. For various configurations they have listed 0 to 60 mph numbers (averages) as follows:
2.7 - 6.3 seconds
3.5 - 6.8 seconds
5.0 - 5.8 seconds
Not sure where they are getting their numbers but if true, I am impressed with the upgrades they accomplished with the 5.o

That would be nice if the 5.0 is the fastest. But I believe there is a video that shows the 3.5 eco as the fastest overall, including Chevy and Dodge.

Saw the videos but I thought it was a 2014 5.0L.

Not sure where in the world they got those numbers, but they are all wrong.


Here is a You Tube video:

Looks like some sandbagging with the 5.0 to me. They increased the power of the 5.0 by 25hp yet it runs a full second and a half a second behind the 3.5 and 2.7 turbos in 281 ft. 281 ft. is less than a 1/16th of a mile.


A second is a lifetime in drag racing. Does the current 3.5 eco run a full second faster than the 5.0 with 360hp. I think not.
