I believe stock for stock, the SRT-4 would beat a Mustang GT around an average track with an average driver. With a professional, the Mustang might win due to the RWD.

The Mustang to modify, just...

The 2000 Cobra R got a 1.02 G's on the skidpad.

You are partly correct, I do like American cars because of there price for the performance. It allows the common person to have a pratical, high performing car, not only for the rich, but for your...

In the states I would choose the Skyline, Supras are fairly common. Plus I think the Skylines look better (I really don't like the "sports/ exotic car look). But everything I am saying is hearsay...

Does anyone know the weight of an E49 speced Hemi 265?

No, it was not legal on the road, but the average person (with money)could go into a normal Plymouth show room and buy one straight from the factory, and it was considered a production car.

Please...

You are right, I was mistaken, they run High 8's with modern tires and gas.

With tires from 1968, they ran mid 10's

"The big news for '68 A-bodies was the Super Stock 426 Hemi package,...

I just want to drive a car that revs that high once or twice in my life. If I had a choice, I would pick a corvette, but I still would test drive a S2000 to say I drove it.

Wait which models are we talking about? The Mini Cooper-S vs the PT Turbo? I would own a mini over a PT, but in a drag, it would be close. The mini is lighter, but the PT has more power and torque...

Good reply Dub'd (even though I do think I know alittle about the outside world, I have lived in Asia for a year and a half, and visited Australia)

Yes, I agree, less of the us vrs them BS. I do...

Sorry to take so long to get back to you, this thread is messy.

You are right about the V-12 of the same displacement being more effcient. Maybe for more torque? Having a longer deeper stroke...

Fair enough. I do get defensive when I have to defend American cars honor so to speak. I prefer them, affordable and the performance I want. If you noticed I have not bashed any other countries...

I would say this whole thread is BS, it starts out with the assumption that American engines are bad.

To answer the original question of the thread

Yes, the ford 5.0L "Cammer" gets 425-430 HP.

nope US cars cannot compete in the world.

Lets see Europe has Neons, PT Cruisers Voyagers, and Grand Voyagers. Austrilia Has PT Cruisers, Voyagers and Vipers. Japan has PT Cruisers, Voyagers and the 300M.

This was just Chrysler.

I disagree that only the Japanese are not going retro, look at Cadillac, very cutting edge designs. I have not decided if I like them or not, but they are doing anything but retro, I personally think...

It has nothing to do with the cam, but instead the rocker-arm ratio which is being changed. Basically a the rocker arm is hollow with an adjustable pedistol in...

Torque

I can do that with my push rod.

Well I am adding varible valve timing and lift to my ford 302 as soon as I have the cash. I will tell you if I like it.

Who would win around a track?
Who would win in the 1/4 mile?
Which would be better to modify?
And why?

Personally I have always like the old school skylines look, I liked the 1974's look. (I think that was the year)

It is in the 2004 model.

I can compare any engine and get the results I want. Lets take Truck engines.

Dodge Hemi Pushrod 2V 5.7L gets 345 HP
Nissian DOHC 4V 5.6L gets 300 HP
Ford Triton...

Over head cams also use over head valves.

You can ADD Varible Valve timing AND liftto a push rod (Chevy 350 or Ford 5.0L) with aftermarket parts. It does not change the Cam profile as in OHC configurations, but instead changes the rocker...
