96 GT vs 64 D-code 289

MustangMatt96GT · January 10th, 2007, 09:17 PM

So i have a 96 GT 5 speed with CAI, o/r h-pipe, flowmasters, udp, and a Hurst. My dad has a 64 1/2 D-code 289 with a C-4 automatic and it has an intake, holley double pumper, headers, full catless exhaust and then mufflers. MSD ignition, cam, and heads. Well it may not have heads and a cam but etheir way i would like to know which one would win in the quarter. My tires are 245/45/17 and his are a lot skinner. Both rear ends are stock. My weight is 175 and my dads is 325.
By the way the D-Code 289 was the most powerfull engine you could buy in the 64s and it is compairable to the A and K code Shelby 289s.

Yeah and im pretty sure i dont have headers, but i was told i do when i bought it so i was wondering if Ford Racing had Shorties for the 96. I was also wondering if they would turn a rusty color or not, because the headers i have on there are looking pretty rusty. Thanks and Let me know who would win.

get ceramic long tubes.. you will regret shorties later... long tubes for the most power.. get like a off road x pipe.. i like dr.gas and get any catback.. borla is good.. just look around and find the best deal for you..
