09 Mustang v6 vs. 85 Camaro
I’ve got a 85 Camaro sport coupe with a 350 swapped into it, it’s got a Edelbrock 1405 & Edelbrock dual plane intake. I bought it with the swap so I don’t know the tranny or what gears it’s got. The mustang is my friends who likes to talk crap; all stock with some huge chrome 19s 🤢😂 I’ve also got 295s on the rear.

Re: 09 Mustang v6 vs. 85 Camaro
The good news is the 2009 v6 is a 210hp POS. The bad news is a 350 can also be a sub 150hp POS or a 500+hp monster. So without knowing what the previous owner hacked into the engine compartment you could be in trouble.
When my friend bought his firebird with a swapped poorly tuned and built 355 and 2.73 rear it was about an 18 second car very slow. It was easy enough to unhack the previous owner mistakes but it takes time.
Figure out what you have and be careful with those 295s and a factory rear end.
