Imagine how quick that combination would be in a Fox Mustang weighing 1,000 lbs less!
unfortunately that motor/trans combo in Evolutions car is a full on race motor with thousands upon thousands of dollars in mods and upgrades. To push those cars into the 8's it takes over 1000 HP and that doesn't come cheap. The shop that is doing the work to my Gt500 also has a 5.0 running in the 8's at 150mph. Lots of money in that setup...
