Those 4.6 SOHC cars are slouches. Someone in my town has one full bolt ons and some suspension and he ran a best of 14.5 or something.

if he has a cam it will be a very good race IMO, without a cam I think you'll beat him by at least a couple of cars.

wheres the car from??? if he called u out on a race he most likely thinks or knows he can beat you.... also im sureeeeeeeee he didnt tell you everything he had done to the car lol........... and id bet money on the fact that he def. has a cam with doing all that bottom end motor work....so figure with a dr the car depending on its weight should go pretty good... i seen a stock bottom end 302 dr stang keep up with a mid 11s spray camaro on the street

what kind of times does your car run?

I'm guessing that if they have a built 306 bottom end, Performer heads, and GT 40 intake they wouldn't bother slapping the stock cams back in there. They may not be wild, but I'd be very surprised if they were stock.

I wouldn't get cocky Jake, but you prolly got a decent shot at him....

Then they can't drive for crap. Karen's '04 GT 'vert went 14.6 bone stock with Timmy driving....

Jake, Im with the the others here that this car may have more work done to it than we think. If they built this motor, we may be dealing with a geared, cammed, and if they are like a few people I know around here who have done the same thing, a sprayed car. By JUST those mods alone with cam gears and tires, hes probably gonna have you if he can drive. He may only have those mods (or not be modded at all) and you will definitely have him. However I think hes "forgetting" a few mods the car has. In that case, I think we need to get cracking and toss on a few mods that you "forgot" you had layin around.

Yea....on a 2.2 60'. Get it to hook and that was an easy 12 second pass.

Got any changes since then Jake?

karen's would be DOHC if its an 04

and like i said before.....ITS AN OHV 306 for god sakes :lol:

I'd find out what cam he has. I'd say he's probably mid 12's with a decent cam.

NJSPEEDER

things you can count on him having:
cam = 100% chance
good tuning = 75% chance
ported intake and heads = 50% chance
drag suspension = 100% chance
weight reduction = 100% chance

if you care to stop down some time jacob we could temporarily pull some weigh tout of the car and i will happily lend you my hoosiers. :) no reason to let the little mustang have a chance at running on ya.

wrong. all non cobra GT's from 96-present are single over head cam motors. the big difference is that 99 and newer ones have PI heads and are a bit quicker stock.

if its a 306, then its a .030 over 302. and since its an SN95 style stang, its either a 94 or 95.

another point to bring up is that if that motor was in a fox body, it would give jake a pretty good run, but its in a much heavier car. I'm not saying it wont be a quick car, but its gonna be a little slower than everyone thinks.

the kid didn't build the car, he bought it the way it sits right now not too long ago. he doesnt know much about cars. granted, its a friendly bet but i wanna kick his ass regardless.

not to mention the kid just bought the car so he probably cant drive it too well. since my 13.2 run i have ported the throttle body, got the spec 3 and flywheel, and dumped those dopey 19s :lol:

Aight so thats a 13.0 maybe with the driver mod applied...still seems like it will be a close race...wish I had some parts you could borrow :( oh wait thats right I tune don't I :lol:

hey I didnt say I was doing a full tune for him or anything, simple stuff only takes a few minutes & I've already got Jakes file so it's not like it'll take more then 25 or 30 seconds to plop in the file :D

Im a tuner at heart that won't die...I love playing with files/software/hardware/beta testing/helping/whatever

lol thanks bill and tim for the help but it doesnt look very necessary.

ok i saw the car today...

the car has a almost stock sized cam in it, 3.50 gears, and no tune. the car couldnt hold idle for some reason and was spewing out black smoke. it gave me a good chuckle when i realized the car couldnt make it out of the driveway. i asked him if he still wanted to race but he changed his mind and said maybe in the spring when he gets a tune and some more bolt ons and gets it running right. this whole story makes me sick :lol:

its a 306, so its not a 4.6

+1
The 302 (and it's derivitives) are very nasty little enignes. with an overbore, heads (you know he has a cam) and intake I've seen them pushing low 12's high 11's in the older cars. So watch your back. Granted it is an SN95, which is heavier, but if he gets his bugs worked out he will be a major threat. I've learned humility against some low dollar, N/A 302's (again in a fox body, mostly LX's) with my car so don't get too cocky.

on the street. i saw a cammed 306 notch go against my buddies 90' gt (cam, ported stock heads, bolt ons and both of em on drag radials- my buddy runs 13.6 @ 99 or 100 they were damn near even, if not, the notch being half a car length ahead

then i raced my buddie and raped his car, and then the kid in the notch broke his clutch cable so i never did get to run him....

:stupid: 96 was the first year of the 4.6 sohc in mustangs & they were junk. Not that other years were much better but 96's were known to be complete dogs.
