bronco ran a 16 flat and tips the scales at 6347lbs. that was before some ignition upgrades and other tid bits. about 1300lbs more than the F-150.

nothing done to the F-150 YET. plans are to go full bolt-on with the f150 first then step up to a whipple. right now bone stock besides the drop its passing the lights at 15.7@87.3. Could have been better but the stock tires were killing my 60' times. i had to leave off idle because i had no traction at all if i loaded the TC.

The bronco on the other hand.... there are alot of mods on that one.

was it built for a blower? i though you were just going N/A? Did you go with lower compression to match F/I?

i was just looking at some of the videos on you photobucket and it looks like the ones with the stang might have been taken out by were my parents place is... (then again almost all of the back roads around ofallon, belleville, shiloh, fairview, look the same.) looks like its kinda over by bethel school road. I have been trying to convince my dad to take his caddy CTS-V out to the track.
