    This is a story about a Foxbody Mustang, an Aussie icon of an engine, and not one, but two Bennies. All those came together to form a powerful, consistent, and formidable team that ended up taking the "Fastest Six Cylinder" trophy at the 2019 DragWeek. But there's so much more to this story.....

    honestly with hindsight if the F6 Ute had of got out of customs we probably would of failed to finish (it blew a box on trip home from QLD on return trip)
    I asked Ben to build us a Drag Week car to enjoy and finish the week
    He more than delivered

    From 1979 to 1982 the Fox Body Mustangs had a 200 (3.3L) Inline Six in them as one of 4 engines you could get. So the Barra make perfect since to slide right in one of them.

    I can't believe that car is still running SSM lower control arms. Not only do they bind a lot, but they also have instant center brackets that raise your instant center a whole lot. They would work much better if you lowered the car more. Try to get the lower control arm parallel with the floor at ride height.

      @@BennysCustomWorks That's what I figured, that's what we could get out of them back in the day. You can go a bit quicker if you correct the geometry. You can apply a bit more wheel speed off the hit and keep the front end down while you apply more boost earlier. As an example, my 4.6 2V ran 1.13's on a 275/50 ET Street @ 3120lbs using the TeamZ stuff.
