I guess I just compare every thing to the POS track here.

No stock 14 second 5.0 Mustangs by a long shot!

Heck even ones with basic mods run low 15's.

I may be wrong, but I think even an '89 5.0 GT was barely factory rated in the high 14's.

5.0 Stangs, whether GT or LX have a tone of potential, it simply wasn't tapped from factory, something to do with people actually wanting to be able to afford the insurance ratings.

not really true most 87-93 stangs were mid 14's right off the showroom floor....easliy pull 14.6@97 mph bone stcok....i've owned several and all of them ran 14's stock....even a stock 94-95's are quite capable of running 14.8@94 mph as well....now bump the timimg,and do a silencer/k&n,and a fresh tune and they are capable of mid to low 14's easily...

my 95 runs 14.1-14.2's all day long with only gears and a few bolt ons(long tube headers,exhaust,tb,maf,pullies)

Yep....Kim's S/C Grand Am ran a 15.0 @101 MPH.

Her best time was a 14.8, wanna run?

Although true, its not as if ALL 5.0 Mustangs were mid 14 second cars. There are tons of different combos from the factory. A stock 5.0 AOD Convertible car is a mid-high 15 second car, etc etc.....the cars that typically made it into the 14s are the bare bones 5spd LXs..

Well first yes it ranged from 15.4's to 14.8. Yes ford rated the mustangs at 225 hp but they where actually putting out more numbers than that according to Rousch Racing. Yes it was so people can afford insurnace. I have been hearing that since mid 1985.

My brother driving a stock 1993 gt ran a 14.8. Pulleys and a H-pipe removed silencer and he ran a 14.3. SO they have alot of potential. IF you ask me i say go with a blower. Pro charge by the way. Can we say 12's all day
