driving habits & 4 banger HP Posted by jak [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: How much horsepower needed to beat a mustang....., Linden, Wed, 18 Aug 2004 15:10:38 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
that ol mustang may have had a seriously built engine the ol 289 is an engine I have alot of respect for I feel I can smoke most modern mustangs but with those old ones they are worse than us man they got the gear ratios down high compression V8s with awesome cams & stuff they can make power at 7Krpm & with that displacement & RPM the friggin sky is the limit + the low end torque although we can make the same HP will kill you off the line
if you race a V8 dont screw around use sticky tires get your engine into its useable RPM range & than some dump the clutch & rev past your power & get into the next gear as fast as possible hopefuly within that gears power range & lay on the throttle friggin RWD old school mustangs dont weigh poopies & are fun :-)
respect to the old school
take care
JAK
