Hell if I wanted to I could make a 1985 Ford F150 fast....that doesn't mean you should watch out for all the other ones.
Bolt on SOHC 2v's shouldn't try to race anything.
Whats wrong with gt's racing? I have an 03 cobra and I don't tell all the mach 1's like you to stop racing. And all the whipple and KB guys don't tell me to stop racing. Its just a food chain of cars bro.

They sound like old 5.0 guys.

It must be the fender emblems and silver stars. Without those, a bolt on/tuned, geared, dr'd mach would surprise you.

i'd hate for a 2v to bust up on your boyfriend's car. i hope that front bumper has a few extra screws in it. this thread was a waste of my time. I'll never get those five minutes back.

so the OP is comparing a 2v to a 4v? Kind of pointless. Sorry not everyone can afford a 4v but ive seen tons of 2v's whoop the living crap out of 4v's and vice versa. It doesnt really matter how many valves it has, if its fast its fast
