Ford with bow tie engine...

[slostang281]

Why are you crying so much about Chevy engines being in Fords? It's the owners money and if they wanted your douchey opinion they would have asked. They were smart and went fast for cheap. Work smarter, not harder. :wink1:

I have never liked the mustangs IIs

Standby. Denny will be here shortly to administer a bitch slap.

I'm sorry but I always thought these looked pretty good

You said it not me.

They were shitty.

Is the Eco boost shitty? No.

Was the 2.3 turbo shitty? Hell no.

The grand national has always been a favorite car for me. So I won't knock the 3.8 turbo, GM did great on that car.

God damn dude, we're talking 30 years of technology advancement here. That's a pretty stupid comparison.

Do you really think that those engines back then would have been so shitty with the technology we have today ?

And bubbaearl pretty much said it best here.

the sbc is the most popular engine ever used in streetrods. it's popularity created a huge aftermarket industry . the rear sump and general size made it the easiest to swap into early fords. abundant parts at good prices made it the choice of most streetroders. to this day it is still the go to engine setup especially if resale is a concern. out of 10 potential buyers you may find one possibly two who would buy a ford motor streetrod.

And just for the fun of it....yes the 86-87 GN/T-Types did get 25+mpg.....if you didn't have the gas pedal mashed to the floor with 15psi boost.

That's no fun.

Although you make a good point, the pictures you used to do it aren't exactly apples to apples.

I agree. However, I'm not going to spend more than 30 seconds trying to find something closer. Those are.... green apples to red ones perhaps? Add some bling to one, take away from the other. The point is the distributor, etc.

Jeez, Mike. If everybody was trying to forget how much of a moron you are, every post you've made in this thread ruins it.

But they aren't so my post prompt for an immediate call out.

Got to get my rep up some how!

I don't mind a SBC in an older ford.

Seriously? Every heard of the 80-81 Turbo trans ams? Shitacular 301 V8 turbos. Wanna go back even further? How about the late 70's regals with turbos?

It was a turbo car made for performance.

Oh and I didnt know the GN was direct injected and got 25+ mpg

Where was the camaro at in the early 90s?

Look at the late 80s early 90s corvettes.

Hell a good running foxbody will give them a run for the money.

My clapped out coupe out ran a 87.
