[QUOTE]Originally posted by 93PONY: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by WHYT LIE: [qb] This really is tough trying to keep everyone happy and make it as fair as possible. So you're saying the 5.0 guys complain that the Chevy 350 (LT1/LS1) is too powerful to compete against because "we" are bigger, but then they can't even compete against the 4.6L mod for mod? I wasn't aware that the 4.6 with equal mods would whip on a 5.0... I'll talk to some more Ford guys and get this part nailed down... [QUOTE]Originally posted by Don: [qb] "As for the 4.6 and heads/cam. Consider the 4.6 the same as the 5.0. Heads/cam/intake are ok for the 4.6 as well" I would think that you would want to limit the DOHC 4.6 cars with stock cams and heads. It will take a heads and cams GT to keep up with a blot-on Mach. The bolt-on Mach is just as powerful as a LS1, and you are keeping them limited to stock heads and cams. Just a thuoght. [/qb][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]I wouldn't worry about it Brian. Yes, a bolt-on 4.6 4V motor *can* go 11's at 115+MPH but that is definately NOT typical. Bob Cosby got a stock longblock/bolt-on 5.0 to run 11's.....NMRA Factory stock class runs mid 11's with stock longlocks/bolt ons, both modular & 5.0 motors.....but that doesn't mean we'll see it at Sac Raceway. Most bolt-on 4Vs will run in the 107-109mph range....which is right where most bolt-on LS1's will run. Yes, there will be those few that run a little harder then most, but I expect that on both sides. [/QB][/QUOTE]
