I know! That would blow the doors off a stock 5.0.4.6 xD hahah But that was a pretty good video I love how they look.

Yeah that seems almost to fast for that year of a stock older 5.0, I would think it would lose to the later year 1987-1995 5.0 cars being they had 215-225hp and 302tq, and that year only had 200-210hp

I think all the cars had respectable times for their power outputs TBH. I am a little suspicious of the 3,580 weight for the IROC though. I think those cars are closer to 3,250-3,300.
