Kevin, Your right, Torque is what you want on the street. (That's what makes it fun) Build the motor for torque & have the horse power be the by-product.
Vector1, Why is your sig line saying your an ass clown?

Funny why more people don't see it this way,and they are the same ones sitting on the sidelines wondering why they can't do better in the short hops even with all the big numbers they are posting.Their loss our gain,torque just plain feels better,all the more reason for big cubic inch muscle.
You guys are funny,Packing an 8 incher! in circumference. |

I agree, that's why my motor is 527 cid. 
That's why I love Fordzilla's TQ numbers, at low rpm and a great,...curve. 
Very nice engine !

I thought about a stroker and still do occaisionally.What makes me hesitate is a couple of times have kicked the rear-end out in turns with the 460 applying just a tad to much wick! That 527" must have a strong rollon.Half the fun of owning a Cobra are the rollon's for me.It's incredible how quick these cars can pass others. |

Kicking the rear out, a tad too much wick (like our sprint car) = fun !

I enjoy it but with street tires it's easy to lose it.I guess it would be the same with stickies all around but going a might faster.Only time I can play around is early a.m. and on well known roads,or back parking lots.A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do!
