ha ha, changing gears is not going to be equivalent to adding a hundred horsepower, and even if it were that would still put you about 40hp under that porsche, who's is pushing all wheel drive with a close ratio six speed transmission. Once again you are wrong buddy.

I have said before I have experience with muscle cars too. I have a 65 GTO 389 tripower with a 4.10 rearend, rock crusher 4spd with a centerforce clutch and I know for sure I could walk your mustang with that and it's 0-60 time is no way in the 4 second range.

Gearing can play a large part in acceleration, but by no means is it equal to adding a hundred horsepower. I think you need to watch a few more episodes of gearhead garage or shadetree mechanic before you speak anymore.
