Ford Fiesta!!
CHECK THIS OUT!!
I'm taking bets on what would win in a straight line drag, a brand new Saleen Mustang, top of the line, or a F150 Lightning with a bord-out engine, beefed tranny and better exhaust? My money is on the Saleen personally, just wanted to know what anyone else thinks. I have a pool going on with my Uncle and cousins, my uncle has a Saleen (he lives in NY) and my buddy that i'm going to NY with has the Lightning described. We're joking about which would be better straight line 1/4 mile, and it's suddenly become serious. Very intense!! :ylsuper

It depends on the Saleen Mustang.
There is the NA S281, which has a 4.6 liter modular V8 making 285hp, the supercharged S281E, making 425hp, and then there is the S351, which uses the 351 Windsor V8, also supercharged, at 505hp. If it's a NA S281, I'd put my money on the Lighting, but if it's a blown Saleen, it'll probably cook that Lightning.

If its a brand new saleen then it cant be the S351, since they only made it one year back in I think 95. If it is the newer body lighning with the supercharged 5.4, then it will walk even the supercharged s281.
Just a smaller pully, shift kit, exhaust and chip and your pulling mid to low 12s no problem. Now if its the older Lightning trucks with the 351, it doesnt have a chance. Well, maybe it could tie if the Saleen is not supercharged. Let us know how the race goes, and watch out for the fiesta, there pretty darn mean with a K&N.

Hehehe, i dunno the specs on the Saleen, but the Lightning is the older one with the 351.
Guess that settles it! I'll let you know what happens when/if it happens. :frog:

Ha, good to see there are people as crazy as myself out there, Carrrnutt!
Of course, there is my plan of dropping a H22A Prelude engine/tranny/cradle into the back of a Del Sol, and having a nice little weekend car... Too bad I'll have to sell it to recoupe the cost, just like all my other project cars
