I'm going to say that from a stop you'll definitally win and that from a roll it will be pretty close. Those cars are definitally very nice and pretty fast, but I think you're bolt-ons wil even it up and the drag radials will give you the win.

Let us know.

They aren't that slow. I've seen mid 13's out of stock ones and have heard of low 13's.

No they are really heavy and the tranny is the reason why they have trouble at the track. The transmission is placed in the car at an angle an the shifter is like plastic. they are not meant fo rthe track. however they do dyno 305 stock.

A Mach will usually run much better than a 14.5(or so).

Yeah, any decent driver will be in the 13's with a good driver getting mid 13's out of one. Also, they are rated 305 flywheel. They make about 270 or so on a dynojet. Also, I doubt they weigh much more than a decently optioned f-body. Maybe 100-150lbs more.

Sometimes I wonder if people research or have ANY experience with these cars, or just talk about them because they dont like them...

I for one have driven, looked at, and done everything with Mach 1s short of owning one (I would LOVE to own one, but couldnt afford it).

Best stock pass I have seen, is my friends Grey 04 (actually for sale now). Car ran 13.1 and a ton of 13.2-13.4s letting off (bracket racing)... Most of them I see have been between 13.2 and 13.6, and have never actually seen a stocker run slower than 14.0 (yes even seen an auto or two go high 13s). Now thats not to say there arent slow ones out there, drivers can make or break a car, but an average driver should go mid 13s, and a good one low 13s!

The transmission is placed in the car exactly like every other 4.6 motor and tranny... not sure where you hear that. And the shifter is just like any other Mustang shifter (most people throw aftermarket ones on anyway). As far as not meant for the track, the fact they are one of the fastest NA Mustangs (if not the fastest) when looking at 1/4 times, Im not sure where you got that MISinformation from!

As I was reading this post I kinda wondered too where you guyz are getting your stats from. I run 1/8th mi track and I've never seen a Mach1 run slower than 8.8 and that's high to mid 13s on street tires and the guy just bought the car so driving couldn't have been the strongest for him. Trust me the Mach1 will be a challenge for ya. He will trap slightly higher than you so the shorter the race the better. Since you have DR and I'm assuming he doesn't that's where you will beat him if you get the jump. Don't expect to real him in. That's just from my 1st hand experiance with the Mach1 back when my car had all the bolt ons known to man(stock motor) and I was running 1.806 60' times.

I've driven it numerous times, which includes takin it hard off the line, from about 40 mph, and even tkaen it through some pretty hard turns at a decent speed.
I cant remember where I heard that the shifter was placed at an angle, I just beleived it cause the shift layout is so crooked and misplaced that it actually looks like its put in wrong. I think it might be the way the shifter is made (how it like zig-zags or whatever). His shifter is stock too (aluminum shift knob).
No joke, they have lots of power. I was very surprised and I beleive that if he can drive and has any work done at all, it might be trouble.
RSM - I'm pretty sure they are rated at 320 hp stock, and dyno 305. Ill check.

I went to look and I just found this:http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?t=565495
It shows a 05 GT that dynos 10 more than a Mach 1. Go tear his a$$ up.

I was waiting for you to post, 25th. Nice to hear from you.

falbtron, they are rated 310. Now that you found the dyno graph, you see that they don't make 305 to the wheels

Don't underestimate them...especially if you run from a roll.

They dont make 305 to the wheels, more like 270-290, and the shifter probably feels like that because your not used to Mustangs. I have driven a good amount of them, and they feel just the same as any other Mustang. I can say compared to the Fbodies I have driven I prefer the Mustangs feel (but then again I have driven and been used to a LOT more Mustangs). Its all personal preferance when it comes to that. I am just talking about the facts here, and the facts are they are 13 second cars without any real effort (I wont go into handeling, Im NOT a corner carver) and are just as much set up for the track as any other newer car!

Hey RSM, been a while now that our cars are down for the winter. Ill be back out next year, but Im willing to bet you wont recognize me at first...

Nice, now that my brother is going to have a car... Me and the family should be at the track a good bit. Im hoping to get some 12.4s (4.10s, and a slight more power) and just have the car look better (actually might be in a magazine shootout)! Ill definately see you out there this year!!!

Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords, a guy I have been talking to has been back and forth with them about a stock head shootout. Other than having to have the stock E7 heads, the rules are open to whatever. Its not so much a shootout to get a winner, more like a bunch of fast cars come, race, and they post them in the mag in order of fastest to slowest.

The track is closed for the day, only you and a couple spectators get to go. They take a bunch of photos, interview you and such, and then you get to race. The only downside is you cant talk about the event until the magazine is published and you cant share any photos you take while there! But you cant beat a closed track, photoshoot for a mag, and a great time!!!

And with a perfect launch if your only going 13.7 in a Mach 1, its time to hand the keys over to a decent or good driver, and see the times drop drastically!

13.7 is a time you should see from someone who just bought the car and doesn't completely botch the launch but keeps it under 2.2 60' on street tires.

Yeah, I know the magazine times are faster, but my friend's '04 Mach ran 13.4 on slicks, that's why I guestimated 13.7 on radials.

Its a decent GUESS... but take my word for it. Thats a slow time for them. Like said before the majority I have seen (I have seen my fair share, at the Ford events I run at) run from 13.2-13.6, and the slower runs I have seen were at a so so track, not a good one! None of these guys were badass drivers either (the guy who ran 13.1 is), but werent bad drivers!

Makes me wish I had one!

Mach 1's are usually good for low 13second runs and the autos are good for 13.6, ive seen a 04 Mach 1 with just a cat-back and some Drag Radials run a 12.8 so they can be pretty quick.

We had an orange one run with us up in NH the past two years. Car had a few suspension mods, full exhaust, all the bolt ons, but a stock motor (TB to oil pan). Car was going low, low 12s all day (12.0-12.2s) on ET Streets, and weighed in at a solid 3400 lbs (I know, I was the guy who had to check weights because my car wasnt at the track, and I know what all the cars have to weigh)!

I have a 2004 Mach 1 and it is a lot quicker top end than my '95 TA. Stock it ran a 13.5 at 106. It would not hook up, with a 2.2 60' and i could not get a better take off. The car pulls hard top end. As far as power, with a c&l cai, ud pillies, and a handheld tuner i put down 284 hp and 287 ftlbs on a dynopack which is about 5% lower than a dyno jet. the car is in the shop right now for a 4.10 gear and a custom tune, i have hooker headers& o/r x pipe with single chamber flows, ud pullies, cai, and used to have a tuner. The car was very quick, and i know you guys may not belive me but i have put down a few ls1 cars that have mods. I have also lost some. But i dont have any track times after the mods. As far as the shifter i raplaced that pos stock one for a steeda tri-ax.

I definitally believe that there are some damn fast bolt-on Mach 1's. I want to find a Mach 1 around here with similar mods to me and race him. I raced a stock one from a roll and it was pretty bad, but then again I'd beat a stock LS1 pretty bad too.

An easy way to answer the question for you is to ask if yourself if you can out run a ls1. Stock for stock the mach will hang with the ls1 car, it comes down to the driver. Drivers being equal then it comes down the car.

They are very close stock for stock, but I'd say that on average a stock LS1 will win by about 2 tenths. I know for a fact that I'll smoke a stock LS1 and a stock Mach 1. I just wonder how I'd do against a Mach 1 with similar mods as me. The car that responds to the mods better will win baring driver error. I'd like to set it up and find out. The best races are the ones where the outcome is totally up in the air before hand.

25th, do the Mach 1's use the 3650 trannys? My buddies 01 Cobra just had 2nd gear dump on him. I did some research, and found out this is kinda a common problem with these trannys.

Also, is it the same DOHC 4.6 as in the Cobras?
--
Some stuff done to it


Posted By: twofast95ta On: 01-29-2006 @ 20:21:59     Reply | Top | Edit
yes they have th 3650 tranny. As far as the motor it is basically the same except a few things, for example the cams, and a bit different head flow. The make more power than a 01 cobra which is the basically the same motor minus the things that i have mentioned. It also has a forged crank in the 5sp. It is nothing like the 03 04 cobra motor!
Red if you are anywhere in my area i will run you, i am sure you will win as you have more power than i. But i am not sure by how much. If you are interisted i can let you know the power when i get the car back.

That Orange one we had at the track has similar mods, but also I only saw him run on ET Streets. He pulled low 12s all day long, and I believe has been 11s at other events, but the mph is slightly lower than yours (111-112)! I would say both cars on the same tires, the Mach would have it down low, and you would come by up top. Probably very close track times, but you should have mph and steam at the far end!

I actually havent heard anything about the trannies being weak, or any real other issues with them, but the cars are rare, and most are stock or mild and have low miles! Its refreshing to see them get punished down the track, but depressing to see some of them with autos!

The trannys are ok but when you get above about 400hp you need to think about a better tranny. They do have a problem of not wanting to shift in 2nd when they are cold, mine has yet to do this to me. The one thing i can say is that top end my car is def. not a slouch, and i bet when i get it back it will be a lot better. I would love to race Red, I always like a good race, but i think he would win, not by much but a win none the less.

Got the car back. It is just where i thought it would be, just to let you know the curve is great and the power is there. 316rwhp and 340rwtq with the mods in sig. But dont be fooled by the lower hp Red, it is still a beast.
BTW I am in now way bashing the LS1 motor, car or any f-body for that matter. I love them! My good friends have them. One made 390 plus the juice in a 02 TA and the other has a vette that has the same H/C set up with the same power.
Just to let you know the TA just put on turbo and is getting the motor built at the moment!!! It is going to be sick!

Sounds like a good combo you have there! Should run real strong. Now you just have to get some track numbers. Are there any tracks open around there?

How long would it take you to get to Atco New Jersey from where you are? We could meet there sometime this year, that would awesome!

Also, have you ever weighed your car?

BTW, if I was ever going to get a mustang, it would definitally be a Mach 1.

Theres a guy here with a 02 or 03 Mach1 looks good but I don't think they have the top end. I'm sure with an A4 it could get mid to high 13's easy. I assume with your mods you probably run in the mid 13's so I think it's be a damn good race. Could be anyone's race I would take my chances from the hole.

It will be that was stock times. Have yet to take it to rockingham again. This time i am using some slicks, looking for 12.2-12.5. Not ging to launch hard, just trying to get a decent 60'.
Stock a mach runs low to mids 13s. Oh yeah, and the new ones were made only in 03 and 04

Heheh 7.94 @ 85.8 here and 8.41 @ 85.x on radials!!! Hehehe

Definately post the times up. My guess is on slicks with some stout driving, 7.7-7.8 @ 88 or so. Should equate to a low 12 @ 110-112! Granted I dont know all of your mods, but my guess would be most if not all the bolt ons, and gears!

25thmustang,I have an IROC that matches your period correct 89' stang. I street race LS1's LT1's mustangs including the Mach 1. NO bottle,no blower,no bolt-on power adders at all. I street raced all the above with solid success. Closest competitor was a cammed up LS1 and came up 1 1/2 car lengths short on the street. Call it bad drivers, but I do this consistently. I think most people under estimate the t.p.i. induction set-up that it keeps everyone scratching their heads when they run me. Granted I do have bigger runners and injectors with base but come on,LS1's and LT1's breath much better than TPI's.

I have seen bolt-on TPI's go 12's on very rare occasions so I'm definitally not gonna call BS, but 337 rwhp does seem quite high for a stock heads and cam L98. Did I miss it or are you running stock heads and cam? Also, do you have any weight reduction? The races don't bother me because driver error and launch can account for alot, but the dyno numbers seem high, although they do go together with the mph.

In the Orlando area,as well as we are speaking on-line,I do hang out with a club (not a menber)called the FUELSLUTS. I do invite anyone to come visit us cause we have many venues to play at. Look them up at www.feulsluts.net for directions when ever you guys get a chance. I'd love to show you what I have and that If there is any one who can atest my IROC reading this now please input. My vehicle is an 1990 IROC-Z w/5.7 rated factory at 245 hp w/ 355 ft. trq. It is white in color with polished mags with license plates that read "1 FAST Z". It is the cleanest Camaro you'll ever see.

Your still slower than me, and I have a ways to go before my combo is maxed out. Im looking for some 12.4s or better this summer...

Also is it stock heads and cam?

Its not that your quicker, its what yuo said before anyone knew any info about your car! And your times are good, but hard to believe you beat every LS1 and LT1 you race without much worry. In my area, I can only name a handful of LS1s and LT1s I would beat...

Cant always believe what you read?! 25thmustang,my stock heads are stock so is the cam!! Kind of hard that your able to do 12.5 w/slicks with maxed out. Ive raced only what was presented to me. I did not race ALL of the LS1's and LT1's here, just the ones worth up a good drag. We have plenty of very quick 4gen.Camaros that I wont mess with. I know better. They range anywhere from 9's to 13's seconds. Just a good kick to see an IROC run with the best 4th gens out there and win. I get the respect from them all after any run. Think you messed with the wrong LS1 and LT1's out there. With your times on the street,you should beat any Camaro even with some small mods. Any chance of location so we can meet someway? Im up for a small vacation somewhere. Id love to run you. Even though according to your times you should beat me!!! I think I have enough to take you! ALL the readers would love that Im sure!

It's not hard at all to believe that a 3rd gen beat a 4th gen. It all comes down to mods and driving.

Got that right! Im waiting for a response from 25thmustang. It is what it is. Believe it or not,its quicker than you may think it is. Ill keep you guessing??!!Until the time is right!

Sure in the summer time head up to CT (or NJ where the track is) and Id be more than happy to race. I personally dont street race (unless I am friends with the other guy and I wont go from a dig to a full track pass) but the track is where its at!

The combo I have now isnt bad, but this summer I have a few more small things that might work wonders. My goals are 12.4s on slicks, 12.8s on radials, and I like to be conservative!

Ill gladly have a fun race, but can say there are a few guys on the site here that can back me and my car up as far as what it runs, and how stock it really is!

Looking to pop custom grind cam from comp with LS1 springs in about a month from now. Dont really want to wait. Have friend who is planning on leaving to n.y. Never been there,or jersey. Isnt that where SLP is? Dont they have dynoes they could rent to public? Dont mind trailering Camaro up there and back! Whats the weather up there and is the track opened yet? Can you hold off on your mods till several weeks? We could meet and have a good friendly run and maybe out for some drinks or whatever. You wont be disappointed on our run. Ill guarantee you itll be a good drag. Still think Ill win though!! sorry!! IROCs rule!!!

I wouldnt mind, but my cars going under the knife soon for new paint, and probably take care of those mods at that time.

In NJ I run at Etown which is a good track, and usually has decent prep! Right now we arent lucky enough to have tracks open, but they will come spring time!

Catch me in the summer time, and it might still be a good race, and if not, I can get a Mustang that will be a good race ! I am always up for some fun at the track, and some heads up races!

Hell, i am in NC and i do street race, come see me. Then you will see my tail lights. Those times were when i was stock. And if you dont have any spray then you WILL lose. Your mph is not much higher than mine when i was stock. I could not keep the tires planted, hence the 2.2 60'. I would love a good race, you may have more hp, but peak numbers are not the only thing. It is all about the area under the curve

I'll keep you all posted when I come up there. I mentioned this to some of my friends here and mentioned that the Power Tour is up towards you guys. We were already planning on doing that this summer. Hopefully, it will be about 5 of us with mostly 3thrd and 4th Gen.vehicles heading up there; 2002 Camaro SS with bolt-on (quick), 1997 Z28 w/built LT1 (His car is almost done),1987 Black IROC with Holley TunnelRam (also built and quick) and lastly an 1974 Olds Cutlass (also built and pretty quick) and lastly,my IROC. But for now, my concern is this weekend with this old dude and his ZR1. IROC sitting in garage ready. Remove mags, disconnected sway bar and installed my skinnies(15 x 3 1/2) Weld drag lights (15 x 8)rear. Re-adjusted torque arm for more downward pressure for better pinion angle and re-installed(only for important races)my Random tech. anti squat relocator bracket. (HINT.. traction problems are no mre when you run my set-up cause business is BUSINESS!!!)I think I'll pull at least 1 1/2 from the start, so long as he is only running street drag radials. Its belly 1/4 tank full with race gas (swear this stuff goes up when I pull in at American Motorsports) and yes,another trick up my sleeve,re-adjust closed loop parameters to enrich (fatter)fuel curve to increase trap on my Accel Management system. (cool to look at especially in drive mode on an IBM PC).Maybe I make make small small lie lie,Compucam is still considered a stock cam? Aint nothing but .452 /.465 lift any ways!! or is it .509/.522 lift-Hell I can remember anyways. Works awesome with the ported and polished Vortec heads. Has anybody ever heard of a 6 angle valve job before? (My neighbor is a machinist,and a damn good one to) Well,if you didnt,now you have. Besides,the time I posted is about 2YEARS OLD!! Yes,I do make more power than 337 rwhp. That number is looooong gone! And yes, T.P.I.s do suffer big time top end, but hogged out completely and you can hide awholalotta power without anybody suspecting nuttin! www.Arizona Speed and Marine and T.P.I.S. Think I push around 425rwhp. Dont push it twofast95trash.(Even with spray)

I really didnt understand much of what was posted there and my brians too fried from school to try and read it. Either way I dont street race but will race at the track for fun!

Unless I read that totally wrong, you have a totally built motor that just looks totally stock. I'm guessing your 12.8 @ 106 is with an older setup. I thought that 337rwhp from a bolt-on TPI sounded WAY too high.

If you mean that I cant prove what my car runs, your sadly mistaken. RSM and BSM both live right near me, have met me, and my father (who also has a quick 5.0) and can attest to what my car has done at the track. In return I can attest to what both of them have gone (both of them have faster cars than your 12.8, and RSM hs two cars faster than that). I would be happy to still race you, if you are going to be up this way!

As far as how fast it is, you told us 12.8 @ 106. Thats quick definately, but not blistering fast by anyones means, I mean I know a few guys with stock motored 5.0s who have been 12.5 - 12.7!

She's pretty quick and fast but NOT as fast as I'm overboasting. Again,I dont claim as being the fastest but am running a ZR-1 this weekend at Orlando speedway. That should tell you roughly how quick I am. My time is two years old roughly and Ive been working on it to make it faster. Now that aint no BULL,neither is the power and speed of the ZR-1!! 25thmustang,guess we'll talk details on travel and date times later when things thaw out. I know you can prove your times but I'm in rebuttal with twofast95ta. Hey twofast95ta, I never knew you we so brutally HONEST!

Hey twofast95ta, thanks about the 06. Its my brothers car. Has been ordered but wont be in till mid March or so. We will definately be having fun with that car (bastard brothers making bank right out of college so we got money to spend on it). Also I might be going to Mustang Week in Myrtle Beach this June, and if so you should try and head down there. We might have a bunch of CT Mustangs going down for the week, and will be a badass time!

Onefastiroc, I thought you meant my times, but now that you said you didnt, thats cool. My times are old, but I havent done anything to improve them much so I dont think the cars any faster now. I have plans and parts to make it faster, but priorities are elsewhere with the car and life!

Cheating in racing is how most people win. Im very close to heads up Mustang and how the top guys run, and can say most if not all of the top runners are doing something that if found out, would cause them to be disqualified. This is one reason I dont plan to be serious into heads up racing, as I wouldnt want to cheat, and would rather have fun then spend my life at it!

Hopefully you will go from a dig. A top end race will result in you losing. Kill him out of the hole and shut it down about 100 mph, if you can keep him off that long. That is assuming he is an average driver and you being good.

I highly doubt it to. The mach stock traps 105-107 in the 1/4. The headers didnt add that much. I say race him for shits and giggles and let us know!

Barely beat ZR-1! He was quick. I could have done better though, beat him by only 3/4's of a car! Damn, I heard that 5.7 litre from in my car, he did better than I thought! But I guess, winning is winning! 76bird, was that your T/A in black that just totally destroyed that Grand National?

The gears will help some and the stall will definitally help quite a bit. The best thing you could do is get some drag radials, really heat them up good and run from a dig.

A bolt-on LT1 can trap 105-106 mph in the 1/4 (I know because mine did) but being an auto you're at a disadvantage from a roll. If both cars were able to trap the same in the 1/4 then I'd put my money on the stick car from a higher roll. However, with good tires you'll have the definite advantage from a stop.

I know a bolt on LT1 can run 105-107 in the 1/4. All i was saying was that with the headers and y pipe he would not pick up 8 mph in tyhe 1/4.

I'm going to say that he didn't race based on the fact that there don't seem to be any results...

sorry guys! just raced him last weekend and i havent gotten a chance to get on here...so the results

The first time we went from a 20 mph roll because i didnt have time to throw my drags on that night...i was comin from work...He didnt spin at all but my car was spinning till about 40...he pulled about half a car while i was spinning and then when i finally caught there was too much ground to make up...

Then we went from a 60 roll where i knew i was going to get murdered...Seeing as his car is a stick he didnt have that delay where mine had to downshift so at about 100 he was 2 and a 1/2 cars

I asked the kid to come to the track and race me there but he seems very hesistant about it..Down low i know i would pull on him but up top his car deff has balls...on a side note...

There was a 350z there with a $1500 exhaust, short shifter and an intake...damnn these things got balls from a roll... I think he left it in 3rd and we went from about 65...he pulled about half a car and then i started reeling him back in and passed him at about 110...Had about 1 car length on him till 145...but these cars are deff impressive

It is time for more mods...My first question being....gears or stall 1st?...im kinda leaning towards a stall....opinions please??

Sounds like a good race. Pretty much the results I expected. Thanks for posting the results!

Also, it's good to see that someone agrees with me about the 350Z's. My friend had one with full exhaust and a cold air and with my auto LT1 TA it was always alot closer from a roll then I thought it should be. I had a few bolt-ons and a cam and if we started low then I beat him pretty good, but a highway roll was way too close for comfort (considering my mods at the time). I did recently learn that a 350Z has a 5th gear ratio of 1:1, so the closer ratios is the reason they are fast from a roll, I think.

The Nittos should hook up fine with your setup as long as you really get them hot.

Too low. Try leaving them around 26 psi.
