is it true that an EA 3.9multi point 5spd man can perform a 15.8sec on the quater mile? the info comes from the site below.

Falcon Facts: EA Falcon

and here it says an AU can only reach a 16.2 while running a 4.0ltr VCT (XR6 version) 4spd auto?

Falcon Facts: AUIII Falcon

of corse this is if the cars are running in top condition.

Its true, my mate owns an EA 3.9multi point 5spd man and he beat a stock AU, this is due to the better gearing in the EA 5spd. But with my 3.9 diff ratio i reckon it will be close.

Modified EAs can dip into the 14s.

And an ED owner has managed a 13.8 (admittedly he's fitted an AU block & head)

I'm talking atmo here too

The sixes have a lot of potential in them!
