98GT vs 91TA

[Murder after Midnight]

My cousin want's to race, he has a 91TA with a 305 with flowmaster exhaust, I have a 98 mustang GT with MAC exhaust and K&N intake, Both cars are auto's, it's just for fun but who do you think will win.
BTW I know,I know slowest race ever lol

def the 98 Gt.. the 305 was a piece....

^thanks for the heads up man

305 TBI will not give you a run at all. A 305 TPI will be a little better race.

What day do you plan on having this race?

the GT will smoke'em good.

the 305 in 1991 has 2 different ratings, 205hp--285TQ and 230HP--300TQ. Plus you have to consider that the 1991 will most likely have high mileage and be worn out a little. So, Yes, you will smoke him.

here are the stats:

The only 305s with 230 hp were the Manuals with the G92 option.

That 305 might be rated at 205 hp and 285 tq but the 4.6 that made its way into the 1996-1998 mustang gts aren't rated for much more. I am not sure of the weight on the 91 TA but the sn95 mustangs are pretty heavy and the ford aod trany was not known for its performance. I think that it should be a pretty close race but thats just my opinion

[lee1rbc]

This could be a tight race.
A 91 T/A 305 auto could muster a 14.8 in its day. I think in a 1/4 mile the GT would catch the 305, but in a 1/8th mile I would give it to the T/A. The reason is auto T/A usually come with a 3.23 rear and the 700r4 has a 3.04 first = 9.82 ratio While the mustang probably has a 2.73 rear and the 4R100 has a 2.71 first = 7.40 ratio.

[01mmmz28]

^yes,true.......but consider how worn out most 91 models would be by now. High mileage will kill a 305's performance. I've driven a few, and they were dogs.....

[bloodxnightmare]

The GT will win. My friend has a 90 firebird with a 305 slightly modded, and my other friend has a 1996 mustang GT with flowmasters and the mustang beat the firebird by about 3 cars in a 1/4 mile.
