I am sure you have been wondering what the outcome was of my question regarding the UCA drop. I found the results to be very interesting. First off this information is based on the same post made on 6 forums. Well it represents a section of the Mustang community the results may be slightly off due to the percentage of Mustang owners who don’t participate on Mustang forums. Also the sample size is very small when you consider I got 218 responses and millions of these cars were made, but all that said the info still paints an interesting picture.

218 Mustangs 114 have the drop 52%
61 FB 34 have the drop 56%
22 V 9 have the drop 41%
135 C 71 have the drop 53%

Of the 114 with the drop 24 race their cars 21%

Percentage of cars with the drop per forum

Classic Mustangs
33%

MustangSteve’s FYI Ford
63%

StangNet
73%

Classic Mustang forum (FKA FoMoCo)
29%

Mustangandmore
29%

VMF
51%

Thank you to everyone who participated in the pool you have given me some good info and I will probably use some if it in my UCA drop web page.

I agree that being "on-line" that the survey was definitely not a definitive representation of what the Mustang community as a whole is doing. However I know quite a few Mustang owners, not on line who have performed the drop and based on personal experience, as well as the results of my poll, I would GUESS that some where between 1 in 4 and 1 in 8 Mustangs has the drop. I found it especially interesting that different forums had such varying % sense some of the forums are definitely in to modifying more than others.
