The Fox-body Ford Mustang was available from 1979 through 1993 and has achieved robust aftermarket support that has let owners build vehicles into drag racers, track cars, or whatever else a person could want. This one from Late Model Restoration<\/em> hits the dyno, and it’s ready to eat up the quarter mile. The company calls the machine Dragula because of the black paint and coffin-like cabin.<\/p>\n

Under the hood, there’s a modified 351-based V8 engine that now displaces 393 cubic inches (6.44 liters). It also has new cylinder heads and camshafts. There’s a 90-millimeter throttle body. A Pro-M engine management system keeps things running. The gearbox is a five-speed manual that goes through an aluminum driveshaft with 3.55 gearing at the back.\u00a0The exhaust gases exit through pipes that make a muscular note.<\/p>\n

The dyno shows this Mustang making 386.1 horsepower and 410.6 pound-feet at the wheels. In comparison, even the\u00a01993 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra, which was among the top versions of the factory-available fox-body models, made 235 hp.<\/p>\n

This car previously had a turbo and an engine with different internals. It made 443 hp and 414.2 lb-ft in that guise. However, all of the power was at the top end of the rev range. This means that as a street car, the current setup would be superior because more power and torque are available at lower rpms. At reduced revs, this tune has around 100 hp and 75 lb-ft more than the forced induction setup.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For comparison, the 2024 Ford Mustang GT makes\u00a0486 horsepower and 418 pound-feet. It weighs around\u00a03,843 pounds and reaches 60 mph in an estimated 4.5 seconds.<\/p>\n

Today, the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger are in a sales battle. As of Q3 2023, Ford has moved\u00a035,315 of its pony cars. Meanwhile, Dodge had delivered\u00a035,350 units of the brand’s competitive product.<\/p>\n
