CHEVY VS. FORD THE SAGA CONTINUES

One of the things your math does not show is weight. The Fox body Mustang's had about a 300-400 lb advantage on the F body. The Mustang has always been lighter.

As far as those times quoted being accurate, I would have to disagree with that wholehartedly. Most of the car mags do this on a test.

Rev to redline, dump clutch, shift at redline. While that may be great for engine noise and burnouts, it's not too great for 1/4 mile performance.

As far as the F body being faster stock for stock, from 1993-current, I'd agree. 1987-1992, I wouldn't.

As far as quality, I think the Mustang runs circles around the F body.

Oh, and btw 5.0killer, I wouldn't be the least bit scared to race a bone stock LT-1 with my near stock 87GT. So far I haven't lost to any LT1's. Whoop de doo.
