Coupes are about 25 lbs lighter than a Cobra... the Cobra was the second lightest of fox body style Mustangs.

Ok so he is a few hundred pounds lighter but that doesn't make up for 160hp and a hell of a big gearing different in the new cars. The gearing in the coyotes is ridiculous.

What are they for the Foxes. He may very well be able to keep up with my stock car and the 3.15s.

The 93 cobras came stock with 3.08 gears. So with your 3.15 and the transmission gearing the coyote as the advantage in that department. So to answer you, no your 3.15s don't help him. Just his weight which is around. 3300lbs from I have looked up.
