The fun, I guess, is that all my other pass-times were, uh, destructive in nature? Catching faster cars is the least self- destructive thing I can do!

Right you are, fiveohblow! My grandfather and my Dad got me into this car stuff< and my step-son and son are getting as sick with it as I am. That is the fun, for me, anyway. Learned long ago I wasn't gonna be fastest, trying to teach the younger guys that lesson now!

i say the 05 will win.

depending on the port work on the stock heads the F-cam may be too much for the 5.0, will be sluggy and then make power and if the heads arent up to par, it will choke it off too early.

but its always hard to tell without seeing and hearing feeling the cars, so it could honestly go either way
