@WunderDoob Wow, you really have no clue.  The 5.0 was in Mustangs until 1995, 2001 in Explorer/Mountaineers and 351's until 1998 in F250's. Also, the 5.0 was over 200HP from 1985 on, which at the time was almost class leading. The Fox Body Mustang's annihilated all of their competition, without even trying. Granted the weak knees Camaro/Firebird/Monte Carlo wasn't much competition. Either way, 5.0 mustangs were low 14/high 13 second cars when driven right.

@lightningstruck93 Grand Nationals walked away from them effortlessly.. but their life was cut short as their power reached its peak

@Fly876 Haha not a chance, a BMW M3 is barely faster then this car. Get your facts straight.

@MCGCRifleman Ford never called the 302 engine a 4.9L in the Mustang. Although, 302 ci is actually ~4.948, it is always rounded up to 5.0. The size of the mustang's 302 has never changed. It has always been 302. And it has always been called a 5.0. Although the engine has not been used in a Mustang for quite a few years now.

How meny HP ?

[Jaxxable]

doenst sound like a rl v 8!

[Fly876]

And still a 3 liter bmw would outrace this thing

[GSX1340R]

That looks like those lego engines with the rev meter on the side.

[F1rstClassLiar]

it was 4.6 liter not 4.9

and it is a fairly small engine for a muscle car but the power it puts out match's that of most 6.0 liters. so i wouldn't complain with a hundred pounds or so lighter then the bigger engines
