Me driving my 1965 Ford Mustang 289 HiPo Coupe. Did a peel out and power shifted a few times but nothing too crazy. The creaking noise is the clutch pedal spring. 4 speed manual C4 top loader transmission.

    I have been reading that the 4 speed toploader can handle a lot more horsepower and torque than the fox body T5. What is your opinion on this?

  • @jpgbrookes People have told me that the 4 speeds are better for high horsepower and high torque than 5 speeds. I didn't want a 5 speed because it wasn't original to the car for that year. I built this with a few toys but mostly with stuff that would have been put in it in 65. Back then people would have put the exact same toys in it considering that everyone was souping up cars then so really it's modified in the same way some kid would have in 65. It's a re-created hot-rod Mustang.

  • I lay 1000 buck that's no hi po.... Until I see it turn over 7gs on a tach it's no hi po

  • @countryismyrock0 It is a HiPo. The engine code on the side is K and it does have the original paperwork and documentation.

  • @lakeangel100 you are a true dumb ass if you put a so called "9 speed" in a shitbox 83 Silverado. They don't make 9 speed trannys. You can't get that kind of mileage out of a silverado unless it's a V6. This is not a race car. It's a show car. Comment to someone who actually gives a shit dude. Learn something about cars while you're at it as well and then buy a real muscle car instead of a truck.

  • @lakeangel100 oh no doubt I would eat shit compared to your truck. I'm not looking to win any races...yet. Maybe in the future but not right now. It's just a fun car for me.
