Curious about 94/95 5.0, track time etc.

[xtweakerx]

Just curious off the wall, my dad is looking into this 94 / 95 i cant remember which year but i know its 5.0 towards the end of years.

Wondering what can be expected performance wise from a 94/95 5.0 w/ a Automatic w/ 3:73 gears, exhaust, intake, small minor bolt-on's like that.

Thanks guys.

I would say low 14's.

 

[1bad04GT]

mid maybe low 14's, he should step it up to 4.10s though...

 

[Stanger007]

14.2-14.5 at full weight w/ street tires and raping the launch (2.0 60ft)

 

[The Green GT]

14.2-14.5 at full weight w/ street tires and raping the launch (2.0 60ft)

Or a 14.5 with some weight reduction and a 2.3 60 ft

It's worth mentioning that an aftermarket convertor will really add to that combo and make that autotragic perform like a different animal.

I am with Wes......except I don't see it breakin' mids until the TC....

what if you add drag radials to the mix w/ stock TC?

I'm sure my dad would evenually change the TC. But it's nice to get an idea where these type of cars are at.

i honestly dont think drag radials would help a stock TC cause i remember when i had 3.73s + automatic just punching it from first gear i didnt even spin except on crap roads, then again i had a vert which is a bit heavier

 

[94-302-vert]

Yeah, the factory TC really holds these things back.... especially if you don't have much engine in front of it...

If the AODE will stay think better gears and a TC...

sorry to get off topic whats TC???

 

[red95gtconvert]

sorry to get off topic whats TC???

TC = torque convertor

 

[xtweakerx]

ill keep that in mind w/ the TC..

Thanks guys

I broke my stock convertor quite spectacularly doing a burnout on a cold tranny (baaaaad) - based on other guys running the stock convertors, I don't think they take much abuse, slicks being what I would define as abuse.

my best with a shift kit, flows, o/r h-pipe, cold air kit and 3.73s was a 14.711.

i'd expect mid 14s out of it.

 

[NotQuik]

i say mid low 14's as well with out tc
