Maybe the tighter tr3160 gearing will help the 480hp version of the 5.0 out a little better than the 18+ mt82.

This. If they were any good or really accurate you wouldn't have so many people spending money on tried and true draggys.

https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...y-maintenance/ C/D TEST RESULTS: NEW 60 mph: 4.4 sec 100 mph: 9.9 sec 130 mph: 16.7 sec Rolling start, 5–60 mph: 5.1 sec ¼-mile: 12.6 sec @ 115 mph Top speed (governor limited, mfr's claim): 163 mph Braking, 70–0 mph: 159 ft Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.95 g I think the tighter gearing with the Tremec should help the Mach 1 a little. I'll be disappointed if it also runs a 12.6 @ 115.

That said, I think the acceleration measurements are apples to apples since the tests are reading the same thing each time. If the speedo is off a bit, then maybe it's a 19-69 mph run instead of exactly 20-70, but that doesn't negate the timing results that show good improvement. Someone else mentioned the read frequency: The OBDLink MX+ I have is adjustable from 1 to 10Hz, so I keep it at 10 Hz to get more accurate computer data.

https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/thr...10-pp1.142234/ Looking back, it looks like I mis-remembered minor portions (wind directions, for example). Anyway, not sure how this thread became all about my mods and journey through it all. Oh well.

Anyway, you can't argue any value for performance with the Mustang considering that the entire car is the worst performance value in the car game right now. I mean, look at what you can get from the competition in comparison to what you'll pay for the GT350, GT350R, Mach1...the Base C8 is cheaper (similar price to Mach1) and will dust each of those cars easily. Same with the ZL1. I mean, at this point they might as well just get the GT350 IM over the 18. |

i've noticed that the maf lb/min value is like a drag strip. it's good for that day at that time and will vary quite a bit. i think the 1 lb/min rule of thumb applies when you already have a baseline, at that time, to compare to.

Problem with the speedometer being the basis of performance times is not just whether the calibration is correct. Speedometers also tend to have spikes which could influence results. Tire spin can skew things as well. These facts means that consistency of such measurements is questionable, since there might be a spike at an opportune moment in one run and then not at that moment in another. |

Seems some of those long term cars get a little faster with the mileage and proper break ins, same happened with the long term ss m6. I think the tr3160 should help as well, it could be argued that it didn't help the gt350 all that much being that they ranged from 12.3 - 12.5 themselves with 526hp, but I do feel the regular 5.0 has a torquier power band than the voodoo that might lend itself better to m6 gearing. We'll see. I think the mach 1 bumper swap might be as popular for the 18+ cars as the gt350 bumper swap is for the 15 - 17 cars.

Not that you need cams for a CJ, but you don't exactly need a CJ unless you have cams imo.
