Phillip Rabon said:I am so sick of every one on the internet talking about this mustang I am a big ford fan, and I know what a ford can do. I have seen a 351 in a maverick run 5.80's in an 1/8 mile on horspower with no supercharger or nothing just straight up motor, lets see an import do that, I have also seen a 4.6 peg a dyno, lets see an import do that. This mustang did not have much done to it you can tell just by listening to it, it had a small cam in it, maybe a little work on the heads and a good set of flowmasters, know if you want to talk about a ford come talk to me b/c I have got a 1971 ford pinto with a 351 in it right now, the car is set up to run 8's on horsepower with stock heads, and when I am done with it it will be down in the 6's with a set of dart heads "modified", stroked and bored to a 427 small block, and a full roller cam.
I guess people don't like Ford is due to the fact that people buy cars isn't just for the engine or how fast they can go. Many other things count too, outlook, reliablity, handling, comfort, safety, durlibality......
I like many Ford cars in the Europe and the Australia market (Focus-RS, Falcon). Somehow the Ford we have in America just doesn't get the good stuff for us.<img>
