Re: Some "Dime Rockets" for the 4TH!
I re-read the thread, didn't see this one listed...
How about a 95 Mustang V6? 145 HP... 2970 pounds Can these be made to run under?

No engine specs...therefore no factored hp...and it wouldn't be 145

Factored @ 170 hp. Strangely enough, I was looking at this exact combo out today. Valve sizes are close to the 5.0. Cam lift is fairly close as well. However, it's limited to a 50 mm throttle body. It's natural class is Q/SA...13.80 index. I can't help but believe this combo might be tough to make competitive.
