finch6013 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I think moser would be fine. they are all competitive. To make a car go tens or elevens you will need alot more motor I think and some stout gears like 4:11 or 4:56, a roll cage, fire protection, and a long list of other things. I would say with the set up you are talking(425 hp) you will probably see 13's. Hard to say for sure. All depends on how far you go with it. The turbo 350 would be fine for your set up if its freshened up and has a nice shift kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smann Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Nice thread Jason (rock2) unfortunatly when I had my car '66 factory red mustang fastback we didnt have digital cameras or computers (laugh)...I miss that car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelhead77 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 those are some sweet stangs! nice work did you do anything with the tranny and rear end? Thanks for the props. The rear end on the 67 was a stock traction-loc the 66 was stock open. Both cars had C4 automatics with B&M shift kits. Whoever owned the 66 before me did something amazing to the suspension. That car handled better than any car I've owned before or since. It took corners at just about any speed I wanted and never let go. finch and steelhead - verrrry nice! I love that fastback '67! (drooler) The 67 was my favorite car of all time. It was actually owned by a little ol' lady who only drove it on Sundays. The car was 100% stock when I bought it. It absolutely broke my heart to sell that car. I actually shed a tear when it left my driveway. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancecobb1 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Here is my 88 sammy! I also have an 09 Mazdaspeed3 pearl white, ill get some pics of it later, its all stock but tinted windows. Oh almost forgot my 92 honda accord work car. Its pretty sweet the purple window tint that is falling off and all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelhead77 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 oh why did you sell it? do you know what they did to the suspension? Financially, I could not justify having this car as toy. It was too nice for a daily driver. I paid $8000 for it, rebuilt the engine, won a bunch of car show trophies and had fun with it for about a year and a half then sold it for $20K. As I said, it broke my heart. Oh well. As for the suspension on the 66 GT, they did the Shelby lowering, (repositioned A frames etc.) added a very thick anti-sway bar in front, and a pretty stout one in the rear, KYB's on all four corners and I'm not sure what all else. It was a dream to drive. I just sold my 96 Cobra a month or so ago, so I'm 'stang-less at the moment. But right now, both of my boys have Mustangs. My oldest has a 99 Cobra, VERY nice car. Mongo engine in that thing. My youngest has a 2000 V6. So I can still drive a 'Stang anytime I want (almost). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 This is my speed3 Its a pretty cool car. About 270hp stock. Nice! I really like the Speed3s but was bummed that they didn't use the AWD system they had on the Speed6 - I almost got one of those but ended up with the S4 Avant (used) instead. The pearl white is sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancecobb1 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Yeah i was bummed also! They have the stuff to do it but they cheaped out i guess? It still handles pretty good, has alot of wheel hop if you try and smoke the tires though! The s4 is a sweet car! what kinda milage do get?

I get around 19-20 in town (no hwy) and 29-34 on the hwy depending on conditions. It's not supposed to be that good but since I put in new O2 sensors and did the APR upgrade it has been great!
