Not Ranked
I have a 1965 mustang that will run 13.10 to 13.20 at 103 to 104 mph depending on the weather. Car weighs 3200 pounds. Is a stick shift and 3.25 rear gears. Runs on piss water for gas . I drive 80 miles to the track and change to a set of 26x8 slicks. Car should be a little quicker because of tire spin on the launch and 1 to 2 shift. How much power does my motor make? If it was put in a much lighter cobra how fast would it be a the track? By the way it is a 302.
There are cars with 1000 dollar motors and there cars with 10000.00 + motors that make 400 HP.
My point is if they could make 400 HP 289's in the 60's.......... factory iron heads. Most 331 and 347 are weak suck for the money and parts that are available now days.
