Fun Ford Weekend

If SuperSix Motorsports will be there look for their Green Fox Mustang with the windshield banner. 2001 V6 with and F150 4.2L crankshaft bored to 4.3 with forged internals, port and polished heads, intake, exhast, all the bells and whistles plus 125 shot NO2 (unless they already added the 2nd stage 125 shot) through 4.10 gears and 10 sec 1/4 mi. 9 sec if the 2nd stage NO2 is there

I guess you could say that. I used to be a V8 only kinda girl, Mustangs, older camaros, firebirds, vettes, old chargers, challengers, olds 442s, Chevy Novas and such. However, last summer my girlfriend, who absolutely loves mustangs and would take hers over a Mercedes Benz SLR McClaren, bought a 2001 V6, and in my search for performance upgrades, I gained an appreciate. I'm still hooked on V8s though. Call me a torque freak.

OK, jokes on me. I wrote this one in a hurry, and looking at it again, I see I called myself a girl. Kids, don't try to multitask if you are not capable. And, BTW, I didn't gain an appreciate. Appreciate. Yeah! I can type! Lets hear it for the dumba$$ with the V8.

OK, don't give me too much credit yet. I'm an absolute torque freak, so the bigger the better. At the same time, yes I have a 97 Cobra, but I also have a 87 Dodge Daytona turbo. I know, I know, Detroit rice, but with certain individuals making over 400 on the wheels (427, www.FWDperformance.com). But unlike your usual ricer, at least mine makes DECENT torque, at least compared to the similar 150 horse 4 bangers of it's day. But like I've seen posted on other threads, modern tech you cn make ridiculous HP out of almost anything these days. One thing the 3.8L does have going for it is the 3 P's. Proven Pushrod Power. While modular is the hot new technology and is putting out impressive numbers, if you want a sure thing, what do you go with? There is no argument for that.
