Mike I hate to disagree but my 287 magnum took my friends 94 5.0 auto, not
by much but we were both on it and I beat him. He took me off the line
when I spun bad and he didn't but after the first 50' I wiped him. At the
time I still had a 100% stock truck, tires, exhaust etc, my only
"performance mod" was a pair of spring clamps.
