This is my badge that I had Roger at Emblempros make for me. He can do pretty much anything you want.

i am buying a ss this week most likely but i find it hard to believe that you beat a 5.0 or a 4.6 unless they were both completly stock and autos,and even then they would still beat you pretty easily.i have had v6 camaro with a 5 spd and they are pretty slow compared to any v8 no matter what its in.but i have also owned 16 mustangs ranging from a 86 svo to a 93 cobra and none of them would lose to a v6.

Definitely do not misbadge your car. If anything just debadge it and go with that. But making it look like a fast car without backing it up is just dumb. Its like those kit cars where they have a lambo body with some 4 banger engine. its a waste.

dude ive beaten 80s 5.0s on my 3.8 close race but ive won with a 230lb passanger, my car i stock and those 5.0 engines are crap stock, ive come close to the newer 95 5.0s, as far as making your car look like a z28 or ss, i see no problem as long as there is no badges, i want an ss hood and spoiler for my car

Thank you! ( I'm referring to the mustang comments. ) The old 5.0's only had what? 195hp and 210ft lbs of torque? The L36's have 215-230hp and 230ft lbs of torque. Anyway I agree with your last statement as well, I'd love to put an SS hood and a spoiler on my car. I see no problem with it as long as your not slapping SS or Z28 stickers everywhere.
