SS saw my tail lights

bri32z · 09-21-2001, 08:41 PM

Just got my car back out of the shop from getting final tunes done on the engine today. So of course I felt like playing and ever so much more since my dad flew up here to see me(I wanted to show him what my new engine was made of). Anyway I was driving around to get my first 100 miles on the new engine(Had to do the 100 mile flush oil change). I saw this red SS coming up in the lane next to me and when he got close I hit it a few times. He stayed next to me so I knew he wanted some. We then got to the light and he got me on the start for about 40 feet then it was all over. I pulled to about a 3 car length by the time I hit the end of 2nd gear. After he realized he was beat and beat bad he let off and so did I. At the next light he rolled down the window and said just one word. D@mn! He gave me a thumbs up and we both pulled away from the light nice and easy since the was nothing else to prove!

My mechanic said it was safe to get on it a bit. Believe me I did not even go over 5000 rpm. The 347 block is the way to go. It is so fast it scares me just going in a straight line. The old hp numbers are from the old block. Have not dynoed the new motor. Finaly have some pics of the motor and my car. I had to use my old mass air box because the cold air would no line up without doing a bunch of fabricating. My mechanic was tired of seeing my car and said he was done with it. It wore him out!

good luck with your b.a. stang i love just watching them drive by when i'm at work they are the best looking car's .& best sounding.

90dpscoupe · 09-23-2001, 08:28 AM

Man you have a combo i am dreaming about,

but hey mustang marty, who cares about specifying the make that got killed, this is a mustang site, plus, there is no reason why a combo like that shouldnt put a raping on a ss.....good kill

marty, i understand what you mean though, flames can start that way, especially if he said he pulled 3 car lenghts on an ss with a 5.0 with just gears, till like 180mph lol, then people have sh1t to talk. of course thats not the case.

bri32z · 09-23-2001, 09:00 AM

Was able to hook up my cold air that did not line up before this morning. WOW! With this and my combo I can really tell the difference. There is a guy that was in the shop when my mechanic was putting my engine in (he has a 2001 corvette with a 100 shot) And he heard my engine then saw my mechanic take it for a spin and he said that there is no way he would even race me. He actually was afraid of losing. Heck I figured he would spank me. But anyway maybe someday I might meet up with him at a light.

Actually as both of us know 90dpscoupe any time ANY Mustang beats an SS or other LS1 product there is usually some half assed reply by one of the brand X guys on the site it was posted on.

Actually, I'm betting a ton of LS1 owners looked at this thread already with the full intention of disproving this kill, until they saw the mod list and thought, "Well, I suppose it's possible, maybe, that Mustang could have beaten an LS1." I'm actually suprised no lame "Well you better watch out because if that LS1 had some headers you would have lost big time." quotes I love so much. They get so damn offended when an LS1 looses to a Mustang, it's honestly like we've attempted to destroy their entire world's foundation. LOL.

I had the exact thing happen to me the night I took the car out with our new 347.(Mare of the Month-August) The local bad LS1 with a stroker in it followed us towards home at midnight and challenged us. He wouldnt challenge a new car in front of the racer crowd.

We spanked his *** good. Three different times and our car had a stock aod in it and his was a standard. When I got home i felt good about the kill but felt bad for the car. Poor baby. If I can get a lentech for it before winter we can go to the track and spank em in front of everbody.Later...

Anyways...Good Kill man!
I've been lurking around this board for quite awhile and finally decided to join...hope you guys don't mind a chevy guy around here.

bri32z · 09-23-2001, 06:40 PM

Well I had a scare. Started driving down the road and I heard this awful noise....sounded like lifter about to shoot out of my engine or something to that affect. I said to myself dang just blew my new engine from getting on it too much. I really said a different word. Anyway, I pulled over and lifted the hood. All it was is the metal line coming out from the header. It must have been creased and caused it to leak real bad.(it broke in 2) I went every where to find this little pipe and no one has it. I guess I will have someone make me one up in the A.M. The bad part about it it discolored my valve cover

Good kill!
You should see the looks on LS1 driver's faces when they get spanked by a 96-98 modular...

But you know its not true, there's no WAY a Mustang can beat the big, bad LS1... hehe...
