Maybe we could start with the V/SA combo that last set the record. Should be competitive with the 302 Fords both cost and performance wise.

Jim, you're going to have to refresh my memory on this one. Was it your combo or the Super6?

It was an El Camino, wasn't it? Haven't seen it for a long time.

Does anybody have one of those programs where you can build cars and then test them maybe we can do it with one of these car

OK, who went to the trouble of getting the 2001 Ford Crown Victoria/Mercury Grand Marquis into the class guide?

4.6L mod motor, rated at 220hp at a 17.xx weight break - so either Q/SA at 3910 or R/SA at 4130. Similar specs and shared parts with the Mustang GT, which is at 260.

Anything to see here?

It will run plenty good...not a dime rocket. DFI, good rear end to hold up to the weight.

Wow LMAO !!! just listed in two days ago... Correct me if I'm wrong 2001 is the 2V with the PI heads, intake and cams? If so, the non PI 2v is running 5-6 under at 207 hp in a mustang, so this should be a decent combo, worth looking at.. And probably, the 99-04 mustang at 260 is way high for that engine, never saw one recently in stock eliminator, what a shame considering how many were built..
