[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 3016021, member: 9628"] And don't forget the 71 BOSS 351 is quoted over and over in the Vintage Muscle car magazines as well as facts and figures books as having posted the best 1/4 mile times of that era when new, at 13.8 e.t. out pacing all of the big block Mustangs of that era. One test in Drag Racing Annual 1971 showed a 71 429 SCJ running a 13.4, but that was not a consistant time for those cars. The BOSS 351 ran the fastest consistant times in the 1/4 mile according to most all literature that has been printed since that era. The 1995 Cobra R was the first production Mustang to consistantly match, and beat the 13.8 set by the BOSS 351. The exotic hemi head BOSS 429 was a very good performer, but the 1/4 mile was not its specialty in stock "as it came from Ford" trim. In comparision, the fastest consistant time posted by MM&FF in 2000 that I have found for a 2000 Cobra R was 12.51@111.94, that was run multiple times consistantly. I don't want to count the couple of 12.4's run by the 2000R in some tests. Consistant times are what are reality. R [/QUOTE]
