All I heard from the Camaro and Trans Am drivers, was how slow the Mustangs were. Wellll.......their Camaro's and Trans Am's had 350ci motors in them!! After owning the Mustang for about a year, I put a Ford 351W motor in it, which is a 351ci motor. Just to keep up with the "Jones". You know not a single person wanted to race, or find out which 350ci motor was faster........ I wonder why? If you're going to compare something, make sure it's an apple to an apple, or an orange to an orange. :) Slate
