What will a SHO like ours do in the 1/4 mile stock? I have heard reports anywhere from 16.1 to 14.9s? I have been drag racing for years, and it feels like my SHO would fall some where in the mid 15s. Does anyone have some hard #s?

Depends on the air temp. My best is a 14.6 with noNOS or S/C and a few mods. This is with the temps in the upper forties.

Best mine went was 15.3 stock. That was by the previous owner. I haven't had a chance to run it at the track yet.

Thats pretty impressive, the best time I could get out of my old 1996 4.6 Cougar was a 15.4.
I had two other"race" cars before that. One was a 1990 GT, 14.45. The other was a 1992 Lx 5.0, 12.50s. Man, I can't wait for spring!

The quickest my SHO ran with the previous owner was a 14.3. Again being winter I've yet to make it out to thr track to see what I can do with it.

Mine came in at 15.1 with the only real mod for the drive train being the modified version of Porter intake. From what I have read of various people posting over the last few years, I would think that mid to low 15 stock is about average.

I have only been able to muster a 15.77@ 88mph... but it was hot, humid, and I had a coil skipping out on me.
No excuses... my '97 just isn't as fast as some, and faster than others.
