That has what engine though? 351W? 351C? 429? That makes a big difference...
depending on your state of tune and rear gears, your LG4 is a low 16 sec - high 15 sec car. see my sig for stock & near stock LG4 times

Probably the 429 that had 360hp... if the 351C is the 4bbl, then it would have around 300hp.

So I thought you said the first paragraph that the torino GT was available with a straight 6 (I6), but then in the second paragraph you don't list a straight 6 just a V-6. So then which is it. Originally posted by 82knightrider

I think V6 and I6 mean the same in his post... Originally posted by CamaroFreak406
