Low 15s if u can launch it well, maybe a high 14 with good air and cooled down engine!

14.2 @ 92 or so
Check Greg_Hager's combo
Same car only a 4cyl converted car so maybe 100lbs lighter.

Run your timing at 11 degrees if you use 87 octane.


You should be good for mid 14's at mid 90's MPH right now. You should pick up a set of underdrive pullies and a 180 degree thermostat next.

I would try a little more timing and better fuel. The underdrives and themostat are good inexpensive mods too.

You should be running in the mid to high 14's. Get some 3.73 gears and some good tires and you might have some possible 13's. I ran my old 90 gt with exhaust, underdrive pulleys, and some bfg drag radials and ran a 13.7.

i would say mid 15s.i would change those gears to a 373 or a 410 that will help and do all chassey work i gained more on chassey work than most mods just get a chassy tuning book for 5.0 mustangs and it will be the best and cheapest thing you can do for the money and you can do most of it your self if you are machanicalyinclined.good luck

You should run mid 14's. Run your timing at 14 degrees with some good gas and mid 14's shouldn't be a problem
