eww mechanical water pump lol 

[leafsrule16]

1/8th mile sucks .....

[TeefRacing]

Lbfiveo, 500hp will not get you into the 5's. Not even if the car is set up for 1/8 mile. 500hp to the rear wheels may get you there @ 2800lbs. But that's far fetched. Who knows, stranger things have happened.

[plair473]

fuck the 1/8 mile...NHRA does'nt run that shit

[mechanicmiller]

what cam are you running

[daviddavido]

man that la sucks cock!

Bro the owner of this car is right... I have an 03 cobra with 700plus hp and goes 6.7@106 on the 1/8mile so I believe a foxbody with less than 3,000 pounds and around the 450-550hp mark can easily go into the 5's on the 1/8mile no problem... Not 2 mention there's need 2 be many suspension work done 2 the car... I'm saying this cuz I also have a 91' coupe that goes 6.9@95 1/8mile with just a lil over 400hp... Thanks 4 the nice video.. Nice car by the way.... :)

[TeefRacing]

And before the idiots chime in when i say "950hp" I don't mean horse power I mean Holley 950 cfm Carburetor.

[TeefRacing]

Btw for what its worth that was with a 4.30 gear and full 3 inch flowmasters and 1 3/4 Mac long tubes.

[TeefRacing]

Did you guys ever run this car? I built another 357, TFS High ports this time around. Engine was a .40 over block, CHP pistons 14.1 compression with a .720 lift solid roller, had a bit too tight 8" converter. Car went best of 10.17 @134 mph with a 1.47 60ft, I think the converter was too tight. I shifted at 7500 rpms, That was with a 950hp too and a vic jr I have put in a loose converter and super victor and a 1050 carb since. Hoping to finally get in the 9's. BTW this is in a 2800lb hatch.

[southernredneck666]

dam that sounds like a beast

[washingtonpaul549]

Dude!!!! you got to warn people to put on shades before viewing ,forget uv rays,,soory about mi spelin i was blinded for a minute...........

[strokerstang4326]

my motor made 468 and went 5.77 in the 1/8 its a 257 stock crank and rods custom grind cam canfield heads with 1.6 rockers and custom pistons for the heads 11.5.1 compression and mine is full roller with a type R intake and not alot of tuning i know i loose power being injected but i drive mine on the street and get 20mpg on the highway and 1 and 7/8 primary headrs will help with some more power

[TeefRacing]

I actually had went to a 1 7/8 and they did not pick up anything, not even a tenth.

The Camshaft you went with a Hydraulic roller or mechanical? Was it degreed or installed straight up? Did you go 5.77 on motor or spray? Cause 5.77 in the 1/8th (Depends also if the car is set up to run 1/8 or 1/4) is 9.00's.

[TeefRacing]

And to be honest I don't quite believe you LOL.

[TeefRacing]

After talking to my cylinder head guy today 468 RWHP isn't enough to get the car even at 2800lbs race wait into 5's in the 1/8 mile. More like 600+ at the rear wheels.

[393coupe]

Bullshit ......

[TeefRacing]

The bullshit is 468 Horse power going 5.77 in the 1/8 LMAO.

[yfz162]

Yeah, that is a steep claim lol. My cobra made 518 to the wheels and i'm lucky to break mid 7's in the 1/8th....... Stock susp. car with 373's

[turneynicholas]

@TeefRacing no it would prolly run 7's in the 1/8 mile

[firechaisson]

@TeefRacing yeah it should be faster...... 5.77 is over 11 seconds in a 1/4 mile, and you gof aster after the 1/8 mile, there is no bullshit about this

[sick308]

no it didnt, fucking liar. go play in trafic

[TeefRacing]

Also, was this car ever raced? I went 10.70 @ 125 MPH with a 1.49 60ft with my old 357 Cubic inch Windsor. Motor was pretty mild, 11.5.1 compression with Cnc'd Performer heads, Solid flat tappet camshaft, Vic Jr. with a 850 carb. Trans was a c4 with a 8inch Dynamic 5500 converter. I was thinking about building another 357, but I'm still quite unsure if they can run a good ### I am looking to go 9's this summer on motor. Thanks for any info.

[streetpunk83]

Up where im at i see alot of guys runnen 383's in mid to low 9's i just bought a 90 fox gt 3 months ago i sold a 93 cobra about 4 years ago for a Termi and i missed the Fox but im also looking at getten into the low 9's high 8's area and have yet to decide what engine to use im still refabricating the car and the catch is i know i want power steering and i want a/c so its been hard trying to decide on an engine but im think im gunna go threw Roush/Yates motors an pick from there any ideas?

[zabcod]

gotta have a/c and p/s for a quarter mile. -.-

[strokerstang4326]

what headers are you running i just went from a 347 stroker to a 357 and i have not heard anything that sounds this good

[TeefRacing]

Mac makes a 1 3/4 long tubes, I had them on my car (Check out my videos) Good price and fit pretty well.

[dlthomas28]

Could pass for an ls1 with a carb.

for sure its not a juncky 350.

I knew it was coming,chevy had to copy sbf indution plus exhaust configruation to get the sbc up to par. Have to take a close look to determine what make it is.

ls1 head looks more like a sbf than 262/283/302/305/307/327/350/40­0.

[dlthomas28]

glad I live in america and not LA.

[kevinaster74]

hey that a ford egine write cuz if is a chevy the car sucks a dont care how good it looks if its a fard than the car is awsome and it looks good

[tt35166coupe]

im glad you like fords but please have someone spell check your posts bud your making us ford guys look worse than we are and dont post if you dont know shit about the car, its obviously a ford engine what makes you think other wise it shows it for gods sake.

[91slownotch]

could listen to this car all day long!

[aaasshole]

I have lived in EL Paso for over 20yrs and never heard of your business until today do you ever sell any of these fox bodies I would like to build one but it is are hard to find one that hasn't been beat up. You guys sure can make a pony car a runner.

[Johnny5liter]

love it

[defw1sh]

wow.

[JohnFivepointO]

I wish I lived in texas so i could see this thing in person

[alyssajade1406]

what size cam???

[joemx3gs]

sounds awesome.... one hell of a cam ya got in there :)

[qmiler88]

Problem with these setups is they are too loud and attract unwanted attention when street driving. Nice car though, probably will be a track car. I know in CA that car would get impounded by LAPD if you tried driving it on the streets here in LA.

[kraaz88]

at this point the car was still running open header, it sounds alot better now with the full exhaust

[94gtvert]

Why would LAPD impound a car if you're not doing anything illegal? I could understand it if you're street racing or something but just cruising through town or something there's nothing wrong with an O/R X pipe, HCI and longtubes. Thank God I live in Texas.

[stangcrazy306]

I have a cousin who lives in California, and the reason the L.A.P.D would impound the car is the clean air laws that they have there, there is know way that the cam running is this car is emissions legal, and also street racing is an epidemic out there!!

[94gtvert]

that's why california is for faggots, seriously, that car is legal in Texas, that's why Texas kicks ass. We have fast cars, hot women, big 4x4s and a hell of a lot of guns.

[stangcrazy306]

I live in Alabama, so we have the same things as well, Southern Pride!

[humantestdummy]

pennsylvania! we have guns,women,cars and its not to hot :)

[stangcrazy306]

I hear you man, pretty country up there!

[macelogan]

lol you dont know how funny that is.

[LtBullitt351]

Amen! Its even better if you don't live in town. I can do burnouts at will in front of my house and there's no one to answer too. Open headers? Go ahead! No problem here. I do pretty much what I want.

[408Sleeper]

Holly mother of god! that small block sounds real good. how much hp and how big a cam you running on it?
