I saw this on an earlier forum on this website. A guy said that he had both. The Dak had it off the line, but the Stang would take the lead in 2nd gear. I don't what would happen considering that you have mods. That is all I know. Hope it helps!

I have a 94 3.9 auto with the following mods:
1. gutted cat
2. 180 T/S
3. Removed silencer
4. K&N drop in
5. Flows 40 series

We lined them up at a 30 punch and neither of
us could run away from each other.
His following mods:

1. Flows 40 series
2. Headers
3. 180 T/S

All in all the stang is prolly going to beat you in
the end...lot better high end torque...but thats
just my opinion...your case maybe different.

I think 98 was before ford changed the hp to 200 and was still around 180 for the v6 stang. My 95 V6 5 spd dak has 200 hp after a few mods and has kept up with a stock v6 stang. Of course alot of that depends on how good you are with a 5 spd.

I think you better use this next 3 months to mod the hell out of your truck so you can guarantee that once you race em, the pusstang shuts up =P

my 99 dakota v6 3.9 liter has been beat by mustangs... well, only in the take off..

mods:
throttle body from a v8
v-chip
vortex exhaust (single pipe) 3" pipes from the headders

i always get taken in the take off, my auto tranny likes to squealll the tires when it shifts from 1'st to 2'nd which eats up time. My gps shows me topped out at 137mph (@ 5500 rpms)

running 100mph at 3k rpms (maxes out at 6k rpms) not sure if that's good or not.

posi-track in the rear too.
