Estimated 1/4 time with Motorsport 351/5-speed/3.50:1 combo
Mustang-lovers:
I'm wondering how quick the following car might be in the quarter-mile. It is a 1980 Mustang hatchback, running the Ford Motorsport 351ci engine (385hp/377 ft-lbs torque, current part number M-6007-A351R). It runs a Holley 750 dual-feed carb, has full-length headers, true dual exhaust, coupled to a Motorsport T-5 trans, and a 9" posi rear with 3.50:1 gears. Chassis-wise the car is stock, except for subframe connectors and different front springs to cope with the additional weight of the 351. How quick do you think this car will be with drag radials and a decent driver behind the wheel?
