What does it take for a stock Fox body to keep up with a late model Z28 SS?

First you say the 87 is stock.

My friends WS6 ran the best of 13.7@103. I'm not tring to brag, but I know I can drive stick better than him. I ran 13.9@100 with the WS6. It has that crappy hydralic clutch.

Then it has a catback. What else you hiding? I love the mustang as much as anybody, but the LS1 deserves much respest. Both cars being stock or close to stock, the mustang with a good driver will win off the line due to better gearing and less weight, but once the LS1 gets moving, it's going to blow by an 87' with 200K miles on it. Either your brother has a freak 87' or the LS1 was running on 7 cyls.

No flames intended, but I've seen enough of both cars in action. Some of you guys are in for a rude awakening when you run one.
