		| If we are talking Factory cars not race cars by other manufacturers that the typical person could not buy (like the t-bolt) I would say the 67 427 Comet Capri mostly because of the weight & they were 7" longer than the Fairlane (1/4's were 7"longer) better weight transfer. There is a road test on 1 that shows 13.68 @ 105 does not seem that fast but it was a 3.89 OPEN rear with a F70-14 tire. Everyone seems to forget no POSI. Not only that I have a 17k mile original sitting in my garage. (67 Capri 2dr hd tp  425/427  1 of 6 produced) they were actually almost 100lbs lighter than a 390 cyclone as they had less sound deadner and of course the aluminum intake alone approx 60lbs. Here is a quick pic of my detailed engine ready to be dropped back in shortly.  |
