Re: Little engines that can
You have to look at the entire car. The top guys have drive train parts that are built like a violin. They rollerize everything,machine every last part until it is the minimum size or thickness needed to do the job. They will run a rear end with a cupful of zero weight motor oil in it,the same for manual transmissions. You could probably walk up to an engine less manual trans stocker on jack stands and spin the input shaft of the trans with one hand and watch the wheels turn. Spin it hard enough,and the wheels will probably keep turning for a while. Everything is butterly smooth.

Over on hardcore5.0.com, there's a 93 Mustang GT, street car, absolutely stock untouched shortblock, H/C/I car that runs 10.50's N/A. Optimal efficiency is vastly under-appreciated.

By the way......this is a REAL RACE CAR.....!!!!! </div></div> Listen, genius, the point of my post had nothing to do with Ford vs. Chevy, Ford vs. Mopar, or Ford vs. anything. The point was that guys who put in the hard work to optimize a particular combination will <span style="font-style: italic">always</span> have the edge over check writers and Keyboard Kommandos. The point was that it doesn't take a gazillion horsepower and the latest trick-part-of-the-week to put together a brutally quick car. The <span style="font-style: italic">point</span> was that any jackass with a credit card can build (or have built) a racecar, but an efficient package, front to back, in the hands of a competent tuner/driver will always be more impressive when one examines the details, regardless of whether it's a Ford, Chevy, Mopar, NHRA Stocker, NMRA Factory Stocker, or whatever else. Hate Fords all you like; if you're not impressed by the obvious work and dedication it takes to put a stock short 302 Mustang <span style="font-weight: bold">street car with stock suspension</span> in the mid-10's on motor, you need a new hobby, friend, because cars ain't for you. And I'd say the same if it was an equivalent 350 Camaro or 340 Cuda we were talking about. As for the rest of your crap, where's Ford in Pro Stock? Owning that **** for the first <span style="font-style: italic">decade</span> of the 500 cube era, until they didn't feel like it anymore. Build an engine? I started when I was 8 years old. With a small block Chevy. And by the way, here's a real racecar:  Just so you're not confused: <span style="font-weight: bold">281 cubes, assembly line heads, block, cam drive and valve followers, 5.92@248 in the quarter mile.</span> Class dismissed.
