Pull the back seat, but that doesn't matter. Light battery, but that is all of ST. Race seat (good place to spead money to get a comfortable one)..

I have talked to many that run cam and STP and almost all of them have said that car is illegal. I would tend to agree with the times it ran.

520 HP.. naw. not enuff.

remember Pilsons Signature....? 2 black marks between turns?? Thats about right.

Didn't you just put in a 3.09 ring and pinion that reduced torque at the wheels by 20% because it was hard to drive with the 3.90? Now you want more power??? Top speed in gear, of course, was also a factor. A supercharger with fairly low boost would likely give you a lot more low end torque, though. I've thought about getting one too even with over 100,000 miles on the engine.

I'm planning on going from a 3.55 to a 3.15 over the winter. If you do the calculation, a 3.55 with BFG's on 18 inch wheels has the same speed in gear as a 3.73 with Bridgestones on 19 inch wheels. A 3.15 with BFG's is the same as a 3.31 with Bridgestones. 3.31 was the ratio of choice for the 2011-2014 Mustangs in FS when 19 inch wheels were required. The 2015 and later Mustangs with the performance package only came with a 3.73 diff. They stopped being competitive in FS even with the IRS.

STP was invented because pony cars couldn't be made competitive in STX or STU.

If one were to seriously try to get to minimum class weight you can replace all interior panels and dash. Only stipulation is it must look "finished". And of course things like radio and a/c go. Now advantage vs work probably not worth it but it's there.
