Mach 1

[foit3]

i raced a mach 1 tonight.. i had a crappy launch and i bogd it and then my trans wouldnt go into 3rd so i was screw and got killed by the mach 1...after the race my trans wasnt letting me in reverse so i could go back and then it wasnt letting me in any gears. my trans only seems to do this when hot and getting beat on a little bit, its pissing me off but i was pissed i lost to the stang owell shit happens i guess i just hope i dont have to replace anything

What are your mods, if both are stock i say the advantage went to the mach. 01 and 02 fbodies are a bit different though.

those cars can run though
i raced one on the highway and he was right there next to me:think:

I had one, with a good driver they can keep up or beat pretty much any stock car out there.

how much horsepower do those mustangs have?

how much horsepower do those mustangs have?

The '03's are factory-rated @ 300 (crank) hp & 320 (crank) torque. '04's were rated @ 310 (crank) hp & 320 (crank) torque.

Many dyno's of stock '03's & '04's indicate that they were both underrated though,
with rwhp being in the 275 - 290 range and 300 - 310 rwtq.
Mine dynoed 282 rwhp/305 rwtq for example.

Accounting for 15% driveline loss, that's ~ 325 - 340 (crank) hp & 353 - 365 (crank) torque.

Yeah i wonder why ford started underratting the 4valve cars, insurance? Its cool with me though, imo the mach 1 is the way to go. already got the solid rear, all you need is a little stronger bottom end and some boost or spray and you got a cobra killer.

My old T/A would spank GTs all day long, but the mach 1s and the cobras you gotta watch out for... 03/04 cobras that is... LS1s own earlier cobras too.
