My GMC Sierra with 4.8L auto and 4.56 gears ran 14.90 @93mph. Only mods are no cats, catback, mild tune and 4.56 gears.

mod motors suck without boost

You've been on here for 3.5 years and your first post is this nonsense? I'll believe it when I see it. Link me to one of your videos. 97 4.6L f150s run 17s bone stock so how do you figure less than 50 rwhp is good for 2.5+ seconds off your 1/4 mile time?

I searched for that name and I don't particularly feel like sifting through every video. I will remain skeptical most especially about the 4.6L f150

whatever dude,if you feel the need,just pm or ask badmanls1 yourself.he's a member here and on ls1tech alot.him and his brother have some of the baddest ls powered rides around our area(98 t/a that runs 10.40's@129)with a stock bottom end and an 02 t/a with bolt-ons that runs 11.80's.they are currently working on an 03 z-71 that's getting a 6.2.the latest vids of the 97 f150 was actually of him outrunning a supercharged joe gibbs silerado(the f150 did have a procharger at this point).

well, you could make a killing charging all the mustang owners around here how to drive.., because every STOCK gt i see runs in the mid to low 14's, occasionally will see one dip into the high 13's, but you have the fastest 12 second gt stang that is stock like your sig says
