@mrmustangkillr if this is a V8 engine and it shuts down 2 cylinders thats 6 not four. To run on 4 cylinders it will shut down 4

@keviiinn Let's not forget the Mustang Cobra from 1996-2004 was a DOHC V8. Made 305HP from 1996-2002, in 2003 and 2004 it made 390HP in a S/C V8 DOHC 4.6.

I was neck and neck with one of these last night from a red light.. I only won bc I'm awd... If the guy was rwd it would have been my "i got raped" story.. Cmon we all have one lol that's the only reason I'm watching this vid bc last night I was like holy hell those are faster than I thought

I have to say I miss my SS but with gas prices I had to say bye was fun to drive thats for sure plenty of punch. Only thing that the car was lacking was stability control other wise I would have kept it for sure even with snow tires I was scared as hell in the snow with this it didn't feel secure in snow. I do miss it you lil 4 bangers don't have a chance when it comes to a straight line race.

@SIASJJ14 The LT models were limited to 113mph if I am correct. Like the Impala they are also limited to 113mph. Idk if its just the LT models or what but every LT Impala i've driven was limited to 113

@keviiinn this car would have been so nice if it was rwd what a shame... and my prelude 2.2 doch vtec is not bad 190 hp 0-60 in 6.3 and 1/4 mile in 14.6 ...and i still like the older monte carlo ss its one of my favorite cars this new one is ok but there is nothing special about it... if it where rwd it would be another story
i've buried the needle on my 06 ss and ran out of road. 140 mph not 113

because it's a OHV pushrod engine, is basically the reason why. because of that though you have a lot of torque, which a DOHC VTEC Honda engine is lacking.
