Well I got my frist car, and had alot of money so I went all out and got a new engine for it. This thing is a real dragster, Hard to belive a 86 ford mustang would do 220 mph (was doing that at the stirp the other day! :D ).

The problem?, its currently getting 8 - 9 miles per a gallon, so if you dont see me around in a few weeks, I was unable to pay the rent :laugh:

Then he'd have to trade gas mileage for horsepower. A Mustang is supposed to be fast and have rotten gas mileage. That is what makes it a muscle car. I had a Gold 73 Mach 1 Mustang in 1974. That was the last year they made them long and sleek. They went to the smaller version after 73. Best car I ever had.

220 mph in the 1/4? No disrespect intended but do you realize that most of the fastest Pro 5.0 guys don't even reach trap speeds that high? And they run low 7 to high 6 second ETs. Maybe you mean 120 mph? ;)
