Re: 1/4 mile 95 tbird 4.6

I'd guess it'd be close to the same as on a 1996 T-bird 4.6L, that being:
7.9 sec (0-60) and ~15.8 sec quarter.

don't know the exact numbers, but 94 and 95's are a little slower, the intake setups aren't as good.

Ok then, according to car-stats.com the 1994 does 0-60 in 8.5s and the quarter mile in about 16.4s, you're right, it is a bit slower... but that's still not a 1995.

94 is the same as 95. No changes. That is why they don't have a 95 listed.

With a V6... seems fast for a v6 actually...

But the 94-95 Birds are running about .1 or .2 seconds behind the 96 and 97's.

Re: 1/4 mile 95 tbird 4.6

Wow, that's for a V6!?! I had a 1993 V6, and it was waaaaay slower than that... probably almost .5 seconds slower to 60, in fact.

Re: 1/4 mile 95 tbird 4.6

stock 0-60: 8.5, 1/4 Mile: 16.4
mine 0-60: 7-8, 1/4 mile: mid 15's
all i have done is a custom air intake setup, dual flowmasters, no resnator, trans shift improver, and soon is a cowl hood, and headers. maybe even a chip

Re: 1/4 mile 95 tbird 4.6

theres no way in hell a 4.6 bird runs a 16.5. Well, its possible, but..must have been in colorado in the rain..lol

Seriously. My WORST run ever was a 16.3 @ 85 or so. In 90* weather, at Virginia Motor Sports Park, leavng the line at idle.

My best run was a 15.94 in 90* weather at Richmond Dragway.

PS, how can we not know how to drive? We're all automatics here. Point, and go. Mash the gas and go. Cant go wrong there. Its not the driver. Its conditions. I know I dont have an issue with traction, so the conditions are killing me..and us.

Oh yeah, its QUICKER to just leave it in drive, rather then shift. The transmission computer is tuned to shift right at the end of the power band. Mnaully shift it, and you can run out of the powerband, and lose HP in the top end.

Re: 1/4 mile 95 tbird 4.6

I havent ran my car in a few months, not since I put the intake on it but when I did I stank up the place with a 16.8 sec @ 88mph. Although that is here in so cal at a strip that is around 3600ft and absolutely no moisture in the air.

One very important thing you guys have to remember.....AGE.

I believe my car (95 4.6 bird) with 133K miles on it was MUCH quicker when it was brand new..then again i don't know this cause i just got it last year. Over time the engine basically loses some power, from compression and wear, so i do believe if i took my bird to the track, i'd be late 15's/early 16's. Then again the previous owner put in 3.27 gears, so i might be alittle quicker.
