the v6 is rated at 170 hp with 165 fp of torque.

your SLE should kill it.

you must remember that they are also lighter.

It will be close.

I'd go for it...I went for many cars when I had an L27, all were much lighter than me. They were no match for my torque. L36 with 205 hp and 230 peak tq...IMO you'd beat him.

Never did like those new Cougars. :puke:

MNwonderboy 11-03-2006 03:25 PM

i hate the newer cougars, and the driver acts like hes drivin a z06.

after '73 Cougars went downhill, but then again so did everything, but the cougars never came back :roll:

Not by much. I think they weigh over 3000 lbs.

i raced a newer V6 cougar (on the track of course) and absolutely slaughtered him with my L27....your SLE will have no problems
