2005年8月1日 · I have a recollection that Leo Levine, in his massive Ford history "Ford: The Dust and the Glory," said that the big Mk IVs got all the way up to 232 on the Mulsanne in 1967. Even though the Mk IVs had 16" rims and a very tall final drive ratio in their 4-speed transaxle, 232 mph seems out of reach.

2007年12月21日 · Say with 850 or so HP at the crank, what would the top speed of a Whippled car be? I'm asking because it is kinda wet of tonight and I'm a bit lazy (read as chicken) to go find out. Is there any formula to calculate it? How much will it …

2012年4月8日 · The GT product Ford delivered in the time allotted for the price they charged is IMO pretty spectacular.

Problem is, if you want to go 200, you have to comply with tons of restrictions, often involving a roll cage. Most of us GT guys resist the idea of bolting a roll cage into our GTs.

2006年3月17日 · according to my calcualtions based on the GT's 28.9" tire height the GT will do 217 mph in 5th gear at 6,500 rpm's assuming you have enough mods to make enough power to wind it out that far. 5th gear has a .77 ratio and the rear gear is 3.36. is my math correct???

For insurance purposes and to meet the federal government's safety mandates, the engine was under-rated at 320hp but is reputed to produce over 400hp.

2007年5月6日 · Someone on this forum mentioned that Top Gear uses a professional driver for the high-speed stuff. That's probably true, but as you can see in the videos, Jeremy must be doing at least some of the driving himself. And he's no slouch. Enjoy! Hal Heindel www.printshopmakeover.com
