02 maxima vs 84 mustang gt
#6
The 80's Rustangs had the REAL 5.0L V8 engines... not like the cheesy 4.6L engines of present...
Our Max has a chance against the 4.6, but the 5.0 are beasts... with very few mods, those Rustangs can fly... especially if it is a notchback LX (which was lighter and faster than a GT)...

They are only beasts with the right bolt ons. And stock for stock the 4.6's run circles around the 5.0's .

I would take a late 80's Rustang LX 5.0 and match it against a stock Rustang GT with the 4.6 and love to prove that theory wrong.

And good luck finding a stock late 80's LX.

I don't think the 84 engine was even an H.O. series. Non H.O. heads are choking. You should smoke it.

I had a 1984 Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible (auto, I was 16) and it was not that fast at all. I also had a 1992 LX 5.0 Convertible (auto again, I know) and it was definately faster than the 84 of course, but still not really fast. I also had a 1996 GT Convertible with the 4.6L 5-spd (finally) and it would run rings around both of the other two. Of course that may have been because of the 5-spd... If the guy is stock, you would walk away from him.
just my $0.02...
