Would think the floor shift would ALSO have the advantage over the column shift in your scenario.Correct, the 48 would most likely be 378's. The 34 is gonna be lighter, but the newer motor has a little more HP. My guess is the winner would be the guy willing to abuse his ****** with great speed shifting skills!
just for speculation if a new 34 ford and a new 48 ford competed against each other in a 1/4 mile drag race which one would win?
