I really like those F-250 Turbo diesels, they are quite fast if you change the chip in them. You can also add propane injection, which is like nitrous for a gasoline engine, to give it some extra power, and a larger exhaust never hurts either.

"The Ford 150 is the best selling vehicle in all the Land"
Quote from Car and Driver March 03.
Have had chevys and fords...still have two Ford's 98 Lincoln Gator and 94 Mk III ext cab conversion.
On our forum a 250 turbo diesel just run a 13.4 @ 105 mph.
My buddies 250 will pull 1.8 60ft's all day.

Alright guys... enough with the Ford cracks, don't make me come and lay the smack down on you guys. To quote the great ( and maybe late) Rodney King... "Can't we all just ge along?". We can pick apart any car maker if we try hard enough. Besides... do you guys know what stadium the Detroit Lions play in? That's right... FORD STADIUM, how many other manufacturers have a stadium? They must be doing something right. I'm certainly not implying that they're as reliable as a Honda or as well built as a BMW but I can say that I've been handing people their arse since I got my Ford.

Well, you don't drive an everyday Ford Taurus...
An '03 Cobra (you said you're putting 460 to the wheels?) is leagues apart from even a GT Mustang, let alone a ZX3!
