Honestly


Now i know i will catch hell for this but what do you guys think, should i mod my V6 mustang or save up to get my 1982 Chevy Camaro pace car all redone? I love my mustang but i also love that camaro. Would it be worht it to try and get the mustang up to a high hp around 250? The camaro stock is puttin out 270 HP. What do you think?

yeah but just cause that engine makes power doesn't mean it will put it down well, in that pace car your probably seeing 150-160 to the wheels beside the fact that that motor was way overrated from factory, it has a alot of funny restrictions in it GM used to make there cars more environmentally friendly in the 80s
