85 trans am vs 98 mustang

Who do you guys think would win. The mustang is a V6 and is all stock other than a glasspack. My trans am has a 305 V8 and is stock other than a flowmaster american thunder exhaust. They are both auto by the way.

Re: 85 trans am vs 98 mustang

That's wierd, with my 87 350 Iroc my mom with her 04 V6 mustang is always able to beat me. Then again mine needs plugs and O2 sensor replaced as it runs really bad. So I imagine after that she wont be an issue any more.

She actually isnt. But I am being serious though I need to change the plugs because of the straight fact that it is missing (I think in two or three cylinders) plus I dont always floor it because of fear of destroying then engine in the state it is in (I normally go three quarters of the way on the gas).

I would except I dont have a garage and there is atleast 6 inches of snow on the ground (Nebraska eh?). I will though once all the snow is gone and stops coming then I will replace them and the sensor and put in a new dash to replace my perfect origional one (storing it until the future so if I sell it I will have one of few original dash camaros).
