coupe or hatch? i seen coupe's run as fast as 13.5's. with a good driver a pair of slicks and a short belt. but the avg. is high 13's to high 14's..but it gets harder to fined good runing stock cars. since it's been 15 years since they stop making the fox body.

Actually throughout the years the times very. I have a book at home that shows all the years with different combo's (Power windows or manual, 5spd or auto, hatch, coupe, or vert, a/c or no factory air, SD or MA).

I remember reading they had a '87 speed density coupe with no factory air, no power options, with air silencer removed doing a 13.4@101mph.

That was probably Tony DeFeo of Cars Illustrated (the best car magazine ever, period). He bought an '87 (no option, hatchback, 3.08) and ran a best 13.7 right off the showroom floor. With timing, tire pressure, iced intake, etc...he got down to 13.4 on crappy Gatorbacks. It wasn't a one time thing either, it was consistent.

But, that doesn't mean everyone with a stock 5.0 can brag their cars run 13s.

If you look at the magazines of the day (and I've got a ton of them in my garage), a bone stock 5.0 ran anywhere from 15.0 to 14.5 depending on the year, trim and who tested it.

There will always be a lot of variation due to trims, production tolerances, weather condition, track prep, etc.

For a bone stock 87-93 Mustang on street tires, time should be in the ballpark of 13.9 - 14.9 with a little practice.

There are guys who have gone 12.9X or fast with stock motors and basic bolt-ons (gear, slicks, pullies, exhaust, K*N, etc). My car went 13.0X @ 102.6 in that config.

That sounds like a factory freak to me Luke,

my friend with an 89 Hatch & 3.73's with slipping clutch went 15.0 flat @ 95 mph.
