Im betting the steering issues with a Ph4 big block dont look so bad now. That is insane.
I remember watching tanks at Pucka, 0-60 in very quick time considering the weight. Dead stop just as quick. I dont think the Stang will stop as well. |

The grandfather worked on tanks in WWII as an engineer, and when he describes these things my god does it make you understand how powerful they really are! Shoehorning that engine into a car?! Blimey...
