Which one's faster in the quarter mile?

Question

Mustang GT or Mustang 5.0L

Stock

Answer 1

Generally For the 79-93 Fox body mustangs the lx coupe(trunk style) is the quickest with the 5.0l then followed by the lx hatchback style, then the GT w/the ground effects and the slowest is the GT Convert.

Answer 2

Those two cars are the same thing. A mustang GT can be either a 4.6 OR a 5.0 liter. A 5.0 is faster in the quarter mile though.

Answer 3

Why would you be racing a stock mustang on the 1/4 mile ?

Answer 4

Back in the 80's an LX would beat a GT. Testing found that the GT's spoiler created just enough drag to slow the car down. An LX didn't come with a spoiler.

Colera's right but you gotta consider who's driving too. If I was driving against you, you'd loose.

If either of us were driving against someone like..John Force, we'd loose!
Just cause it's fast doesn't mean it will win a race. Especially in drag racing.

Most drag races are won in the first 60 Ft.

Answer 5

The newer GT's beat the older 5.0 hands down

Answer 6

as stated above, it depends on the years you are talking about. but for the record a stock 4.6L DOHC V8 would beat the 5.0

Answer 7

Depends on the driver and condition of the car at the time.

Answer 8

it would depend on what year and what factory modifications were done.

Not all same make and model cars put out the same #'s, you can put 2 2000 mustage beside eachother made at the same factory and one could stomp the other just out of pure dumb luck.

Answer 9

PROBABLY A HORSE
