anybody know how fast an all stock 2dr maverick with a 250, c4, 3.00 gears goes from 0-60 thereabouts? I found this neat website about stock times but it only lists maverick with the 302. http://www.albeedigital.com/supercoupe/articles/0-60_Quarter_Mile_Times/F_0-60times.html just curious. waiting for parts on my car or i'd try it myself.
Depends greatly on the year model. 70-71 250s have better numbers than the post smog cars. My original 70 250 was really peppy for a 6 cylinder off the line....the 64 model 200 I later put in it is weaker than rain water.
ha har har. lol. it does feel that way tho... it's a 71. I'm just trying to figure out where I'm at compared to keeping up with other cars on the road. like a honda.
I'd say you'd have no problem out running my 4 cylinder Jeep Liberty...it barely pulls itself! I have no numbers on 0-60 times....but I can remember hanging with my friend off the line who had a 318 74 Duster....then at 40 he would pull like I was sitting still. They run good for a 6 but no power house. Around 155 hp....the post smog ones are about 50-60 hp less.
kewl. thnx. it's mainly the "oh crap I shouldn't have turn with a car coming that soon" and "gotta grab that parking spot" moments i'm concerned about, ya know.
when mine had the stock 250 it would spin the tire if you powerbraked it and chirp 2nd now and then. It was peepy for a 6 cylinder. I guess it would run the 1/8 mile in the mid 11's
Don't bother, unless you want to get embarrassed. Not really that big a difference... They changed the way the horsepower was rated.
I forgot about the change to rear wheel hp. Now I feel a little better about the 77 model 250 I'm getting ready to drop in my 1970 Maverick.
