Just a little FYI the 87-93 or any fox body stang is not even in the top 10 of the fastest stangs made... I take that back, I believe the 93 Cobra R was on the list... But other than that....nothing.... Mainly the true Pony/Muscle cars of the 60 and 70s made up that list of the top 10 fastest stangs produced...

We went at it a couple of times and he had no problem hanging with the Mustang.
I don't think a CSVT would have any pr.blems hanging with a stock '91 stang GT.
um ok a stock csvt will NOT hang with a '91 stang unless it is an automatic...a STOCK fox bodied stang with a manual will run deep into the 14's and a 5.9 0-60...a csvt unless supercharged(or demonsvt's)will NOT hang with that...i own a csvt,and have owned SEVERAL foxbodied stangs(including my current 12 second '93 lx),and my svt is not nearly as quick as any of the stangs i've owned....300 lb.ft. of torque is awesome in a 3000# car....never underestimate a fox stang, with gears and a couple bolt ons they are solid 13 second cars,and with a few more mods a very easy 12 second car...a bone stock stang with 3.73 gears is very capable of high 13 second 1/4 mile times.....
Thats not been my experience. But then hey what do I know.
warmonger
i have been around and owned mustang for years,and there is no way in hell that a 200 hp front wheel drive car can hang with a 5 speed 225 hp/300 lb. ft. of torque rear wheel drive car period.....i have an svt,and while its fairly quick,it in no way is anywhere near as fast as any 5 speed foxbodied stang......i don't see any svt's on here that run any lower than 14's that includes supercharged and 3l cars too...there are thousands of fox stangs that are running removed intake silencers,k+n's,3.73 gears,and flowmaster exhausts that are well into the 13's....now auto stangs are a different story those aod tranny's suck a$$,but a 5speed....
i can personally tell you from experience,that these cars are faster....my 93 lx is in the 12's with minimal mods..exhaust,gears,heads,cam,and intake.....
don't get me wrong i love svt's...hell i retired my stang to strip/weekend toy duty,when i got my svt..great cars they are,but they are not faster than a fox bodied stang..now as with all things there will be exceptions,but in general MOST(not every single one)fox stangs will outrun MOST(not every single one) svt's,and that's just a fact....
hell it was the explosion of the fox mustang aftermarket that started everyone trying to mod their cars for performance...the stang scene was huge...when the aftermarket companies saw the amount of modding to these cars,stuff started becoming available for all types of cars...modding as we know it now might not be what it is today if it wasn't for the 5.0 mustang...
Buddy, calm down, #1 you said a stock Mustang and 1991 model at that which were slower than the later years. And lets leave the Facts to the tracks, those are facts, these are discussions.
ok buddy you obviously don't know jack about mustangs..so don't speak about something you know nothing about buddy...all 87-93 5.0 mustangs had 225 hp(revised to 205 by ford in 93)and 300 lb. ft. of torque...and they are definitely lighter than the 94-up stangs...and a STOCK 5 speed 87-93 stang will own MOST csvt's in the 1/4 and 1/8 mile and that's a simple fact,buddy...the 87-93 stangs were the some of the quickest stock stangs built...they ran mid to low 14's all day long BONE STOCK...add gears and a k+n and your looking at 13's its a fact,buddy...so i wouldn't call that the slower stangs like you did...if you don't know jack about the subject don't speak buddy...
You know what,? I'am not even going to discuss this with you anymore because you are obviously not reading what I write anyhow, Once more for those of you that can't read...We are talking stock for stock, not K&N filter, not camshafts,not TB's.. I would like to see the stang that is stock run a lowww 14... Please prove me wrong, If I'm not mistaken it would be more like low 15's to high 14's, but then again these are just numbers and it all comes down to driver skill in the end. I can show you a slip from my 89 LX that dyno'ed at 385 rwhp and ran low 12's, but that was with $5000. under the hood, and before I floated a Valve!
So don't go around labeling people as not knowing if you don't know them. I never once said you didn't know anything. Just having a friendly discussion.
Have a nice day.

My experience in racing two late 80's/early 90's stang GT coupes was that, from a dig, it's the Stang all the way, both GT's pulled away from a stop quickly, only after 70MPH did they stop pulling. From a highway roll, like from 70MPH up to 140MPH, I pulled the GT's by about a carlength. This makes perfect sense to me, because the old 5L GT's fell flat on their face in the upper RPM's, they were torque monsters down low but had little high RPM performance (relative to the CSVT at least) to offer STOCK.
Then again, it's rare to find a stock GT Stang fox body these days. When I'm in my SS, I'm always wary, you never know what you're going up against when it comes to a fox body.
