The youngest 5.0s would be turning 14 years old now (assuming you don't count the bastard child 94-95 models). 3000+lbs and 205-215hp aren't exactly lightning quick, especially when coupled with a shoddy AOD transmission.

Then again, finding one that's stock and/or not beaten to shit is beginning to get rediculously hard.
Thats probably why I see them as being faster than others, I doubt most of them I've seen were stock. Exhaust and intake at the very least I would say has been done to the 5.0s I'm used to seeing, and god knows what else people have done to them around here.

*shrug*

Still, it's a good car (5.0 'stang) that gets bad rep.

D-rule all! But i gotta give crazy props to the B18C tho, thats one fuckin monster of a B. I know a kid with an EG hatch with I/H/E and street tuned and he was wasting muscle last summer like it was nothing. But there are always variables... this kid can drive this car like no one else tho. An awesome driver can make a crappy car fast and a crappy driver can make an awesome car slow...

neck and neck isnt a win..its a tie..nothing to brag about imo
It is when I spent 800 in a rusted old ef hatch with stock exhaust and buddy had $3000 with I/H/E fart cannon and the works!

Last time I check b16's weren't garbage. Gen 1 160hp Gen 2 168 hp stock. without mods. Gotta remeber to get our d's up to these numbers takes some wok and then they are almost tapped out unless you have lotsa money! I am talking allmotor here. B's start at 160 and can be easily worked up with 10x the aftermarket of a d!

I still love my D though!

My other buddy has a 91 lx truck with Intake heads a cam and 4:30 gears. . That thing is a 5.freaking fast. Runs 8.1 in the 1/8th.
Guess there aren't too many fast mustangs in your neck of the woods.

I went 7.70s with ported E7s and used/junkyard stuff.

I doubt most of them I've seen were stock. Exhaust and intake at the very least I would say has been done to the 5.0s I'm used to seeing, and god knows what else people have done to them around here.
I have only seen 2 smog pumps in my life on a foxbody. The kids now a days will think flowmasters came stock on 5.0s :D

Well. I guess everything is junk. My buddies 5.0 is junk. My ef is junk. B's are junk, NSX's are junk. Everything is junk.. You guys are great!! I need a drink!

BTW. You can't really compare track times from one to another. My 1/8th tracks are airport that they set lights up on for the weekend! Plus this is Northern Ontario and it isn't any where close to sea level!

To those of you who appreciate a good race story.. Thank you.
