actually, i just saw a badass show on discovery science (the channel) where they compare all of the supercars - past and present. the 0-100-0 champion was the boss 429 (mustang), which completed the feat in just over 9 seconds (like 9.2 or something). yikes.

I think just about anybody would be able to tell the difference between a 351, which sounds like a "regular" engine, even built, and a monster like a 427.

i am not going to defend this post...because who knows. But not all replicar 427's have 400+ HP. Some of them start at right around 200HP.

Good point. Unless you stop and talk to the guy, it's very hard to know what he's running. Especially with that sort of car, where there are so many possible variations.
