It's like all the jackasses that say they run 13's in basically stock 2001 + Gt's. I hear this all over the internet yet every week I see dozens of slow ass GT's roll up and run high 14's andlow 15's. I guess it's just the bad San Antonio GT owners though.
13.9 @ 98mph is what I did with just a o/r h-pipe on my 99% stock 160k mile 5.0. Unfortunatley I was not able to run her completley stock as the h-pipe was shot when I bought her.
Any substantial amount of bolt ons on a 89-93 5.0 will yeild fairly impressive times (low-mid 12's). One thing to keep in mind is that they are not porkers like todays vehicles seem to be.
Btw, see sig for my minimal mods and times
