Re: R/T versus 5.0 Stang

No offence taken by me ( probably the most stock 6 on the list). I have
beaten a Mustang 6 before... could have been driver, but I've beaten him
more than once, so maybe not. I also have a 4x4... something not set up to
drag. And I don't have the nice aerodynamics that the 97+ Daks have.... I
think it's a pretty fair fight.

I will concede to numbers, finding numbers on BOTH engines isn't the easiest
thing in the world.
