Hey guys i was wondering do you think my car would beat a Trans Am it's a 88 with a 400Sb and i have a 5.0 mustang with 373 gears with a lunati cam and new intake and carb it has like 350 hp.

If your a really good driver and hes a really bad driver yeah you can win.

No you should be able to give him a good run dont know if you will win or not it would be close

your gonna have to give way more info on both cars for a good answer.

1bad5.0 · June 7th, 2007, 08:28 PM

Well I'm a pretty good driver and i have a 4spd and he has an automatic with stock 308 gears soo i think my chances are good and there's a grand on the line so i'm gonna win or blow the car tryin.

depends whats done to it. a guy i know has a 400 small block and 700r4 in his 86 camaro and i ripped that car a new asshole while i was on street tires with my stock motor car.

89StangGT · June 7th, 2007, 08:31 PM

If you are as good a driver as you are a mechanic you should be alright. Anybody that can squeeze 210 hp out of a cam, intake and carb change can work on my car anytime. Just tell him that his shoe is untied then yell go!! It will work trust me, he is driving a Pontiac.

400sb didnt come in the TAs in 1988. It could have 600 rwhp for all we know.

Yeah, they came with 5.0's and the GTA came with a 5.7. If it is a stock 2 barrel 400 sb you got him beat. They were rated at 265 hp. But like he said, it aint a stock motor for that car so it could have 600 hp.
