How fast can a stock 5.0 go
#13
As far as nitrous I new of a guy in Halifax that ran a 11.33 on a stock motor. but after 3 runs had to give up to motor damage. He had bent push rods and #2 main cap had split. To bad but if oil pressure never dropped he was thinking the car mite have gone a 10.90. I remember at the time thinking he was a nut. I talked to him years later and when he pulled the car apart it had issues from front to back....broken cap/bent valves/ clutch was toast/axles turned on spline.

I have a group of friends up here that say a stock 5.0 won't go faster than the 13's. I say what do they know they all drive imports lol. I think I am going with 3:55 gears to wake the car a bit. The roads here are long and you have to drive forever to get somwere around here so tall gears are out of the question
