camaro or fox

[Camaro_Dave]

i've been having issues deciding which car to drop my engine in. i have a 74 caged and tubbed camaro with 31-18.5-15 DOT and a stock suspension style 92 stang with 10" tires. i have never weighed the camaro but ITS HEAVY! the stang weighed in at 2820lbs with the 5.0 and 5 speed. not sure how fast or how much power i'll make but from comparing other peoples similiar combo's i should see 8's on enough spray. the camaro will not certify for 8's but it is totally done. so i don;t really want to weld more bars in etc... the fox only has suspension mods so far and will get a wolfe 8.50 cage if i decide that route.
so i guess my question is, should i build the fox or camaro? lets say the camaro weighs 500 lbs more then the fox, is that going to be that big of a difference? i build this 20k engine to go fast. from what i gather i'd go faster with the stang. but i need really honest opinions.
we don't hve any heads up classes here just bracket. but i would like to head out of state and do PSCA stuff, which th fox would be able t fit in a class whereas the camaro is back halved.....
i'm losing sleep over this decision so help me out!!!
thanks

Dave it's a no brainer although I like my Camaro's you have to look at it from another standpoint less weight easier on parts go faster .......
I like my 80 Z but that car weighs in @ 3600 empty .With my 68 Camaro I'm hoping I'll lose half a sec on the weight alone .

If you want to go fast, go with the lighter car. Lighter cars are easier on parts too.

[Camaro_Dave]

those were my thoughts exactly. but half the people i've talked to think the big tire will go faster....which i doubt because of the weight too.

I say go with the Mustang reason 1. It is lighter, 2. I like small tired cars. When someone tells me they go 8's on big 31x17" tires I go big deal. But when someone says I went 8's on a 10"It sounds way more impressive.
