04 Mach 1 vs 02 ZO6

[Mach1Mustang]

Last weekend me and a friend ran at the drag strip. He ran a 8.230 @ 89.7 mph and i ran a 8.233 @86.3. The last night we rolled off from a 60 roll on the interstate. I knew he was going to win but by how much was the question. We ran to 120 or so and he had me by about a car, maybe a tad more. His car is stock with less than 5k miles. I also got to drive it yesterday, wow, it drives really good.

Sounds like fun.

What mods do you have?? You must have some decent mods to hang with a Z06.

[BlueByU-SS]

yea mach= no contest for z06.. unless your friend has some serious shifting difficulties.. or you got some serious mods.. id guess gears cam.. n full bolt ons

[Mach1Mustang]

I have full exhaust, 4.10 gears, ud pullies, cai, maf, and a custom tune. I think he still took it easy on me on the street. He said he started in 3rd and never shifted untill the top of 3rd. He is a great driver by the way.

probably not if he had you by a car... i wonder how i'd fare with my ls6 against ya? different gearing and few lbs more...

[Mach1Mustang]

What do you run in the 1/8 or 1/4? The ZO6 is badass. When i drove it f you didnt have the tc offit would bog third gear because it would be spining!

[breakparts]

MACH 1 MUSTANG HAS 316 RWHP----your buddy wasnt driving correctly,,,and the 02 zo6 is 380 hp....id smoke you with his car

i haven't run yet... waiting on my new rear... once that is in i'll make a pass with some slicks... i'm hoping for a low 12 second pass... i figure i should be good for high 11's low 12's with the power i'm putting down if i drive decent...

02 Z06 has 405 hp stock, ur prally thinkin of the 01 Z06. A 4.6 would def need h/c, or some kind of FI to stick with a Z06.

[Mach1Mustang]

ok considering the fact that the zo6 puts down around 350-360 and about the same with tq why is it hard to believe the race. Sure i put down about 40 less hp , but near the same tq, plus i have a stronger rear gear. But if no one believes me then i dont care, just figured i would post about my loss to a zo6. By the way breakparts you can suck my nuts for all i care, it is because of people like you that causes problems.

[tonyjnjz]

wanna run??? i know i dont have a z06 but i think i should be able to keep up

[Mach1Mustang]

WOW! Can we really run? I hope you could keep up you have a highly modded car.

[tonyjnjz]

and im HOPING to take down a z06 when i meet up with one....been my goal since i got the car..there bad ass cars...theres a few out there that have run high 11s completely stock....z06vette.com checked out there forum before..the c6 z06 is just rediculous..dunnno if u saw the post on here of one runnning a 10.85 stock on drag rads!!!!

[Mach1Mustang]

yeh those new ones are badass. i saw one put down 478 rwhp with only a catback and a tune. the same car ran a 7.4 @ 99 mph on drag radials.

[cmaross01]

A mach 1 with 4:10s alone is a very stout car! The race sounds right to me!

Heads and cams (4), is highly expensive, a LOT of work, and you might gain 25% HP?

When you could slap a procharger on it for the same money and get 50 to 70% HP?

That is why Ford's upgraded modular intake, cams, and heads never made any money. I had an 01 Cobra, cams were 1600 bucks (yikes), the magnesium FR500 intake was 2500 bucks (yikes^2 power), and the heads were actually reasonable, like 900 a piece. Imagine what the labor charge would be though This added up would give you a whopping 80 HP at the engine, and a serious dent in the ole walleto.

Why do that when you could just slap a supercharger on it and be done.

MM & FF tested a procharged Mach1 vs. a stock 03, with 8lbs boost each, and the Mach walked away every time. They even started the Mach in second and the 03 in 1st and the Mach still ate the 03 up.

You guys f*ck around and mess with the right Mach and you will find out first hand.

My geared and bolt-on 01 Cobra would have given quite a few of the F-bods around here all they could handle.

[Mach1Mustang]

tell me about it, i was going to to do heads and cams, but wow was it expensive. You can build a short block cheaper.

[SeVeReDiStOrTiOn]

Most people aren't good drivers in a car that's new to them...if if they're good drivers in general. What was he driving before the Z06?

The only prob I see is the highway run...with the Z06's 40rwhp, weight and aerodynamic advantage it should have been a lot farther apart than 1 car length So either the guy can't drive, there's something wrong with his motor or someone put a Ls1 in there and sold the Ls6

[breakparts]

MACH 1 MUSTANG---KEEP YOUR SEXUAL FANTASIES TO YOUR SELF--- AND A BONE STOCK 03 COBRA WOULD GET BEAT BY A ZO6 EASILY-----SO THE 8PSI ON A MACH PULLING A STOCK 03 COBRA DOSENT IMPRESS ALOT OF US..INCLUDING ME

[breakparts]

mach1 mustang WHAT ARE YOU SAYING ....your rear gear being a 410 makes it weaker....not stronger....so you meant to say your gears are lower....right
