Either way a good Phase 3 with the 3.9 factory rear end would have been a fair bit quicker.

An E49 was 1 second faster to 100mph than a phase 3, the E49 was tested with a 3.5:1 diff and the phase 3 was tested with a 3.25:1 diff and wide ratio top loader.
E49 14.1 seconds to 100mph 14.4 second 1/4
Phase 3 15.2 seconds to 100mph 14.7 second 1/4
