    Can high humidity kill 1/4 MPH and ET?

    Sounds like you are heading in the right direction, don't worry you'll soon find out how much fun slicks makes racing. If you are footbraking the car and getting some spin, try knocking 2 pounds of air out of the tires. I run around 12 pounds in my ET streets and they seem to hook pretty well...

    Can high humidity kill 1/4 MPH and ET?

    Those 60' times are still pretty slow considering the stall you are running. I don't see any rear suspension mods specifically the control arms. You're leaving alot on the table with that 60'. Your lowering springs aren't helping with weight transfer either. Are you disconnecting the front sway...

    best way to see low 13's

    if your thinking JYT, look into a water/methanol injection system. You wouldn't believe the kind of boost you can run with one of these. My brother uses one on his GN and runs 25!! pounds of boost on pump gas. He even uses windshield washer fluid when he can't get methanol.

    Proper belt for the FRRP A/C Eliminator

    I just did the same thing to pass emmisions. 82.7" should get you there but i do have pullies. I believe it should stay the same or be pretty close to that.

    slow off the line gears my answer?

    3.73 or 3.90 would help alot. A higher stall would work wonders with the car but if you plan on doing the swap, just do the gears.

    does a stall give you any more gains than just being able to stall it up at the line?

    Edge's converter are really awesome. I've got the 3000 9.5" one in my car. On the motor with just some bolt on's, it stalled right at 3000 rpm. Couldn't believe how hard the car left off the line. The converter also helps in highway running. When you get on it at speed, the converter is...

    Where do you guys launch with your stock AOD converter?

    You're right in the ballpark for a stock converter. If you're looking to bog less at the line, try airing up the tires a bit more. Go up 2 pounds from what you are running now and keep going up until they start spinning too much. A little (very little) spin on your car would probably help get...

    Idle adjustment

    Maybe its just my car but when I unplug the iac the car stalls out. Is this a symptom of a bad iac or am i missing some other problem? Motor is the 331 in my sig.

    Edge Racing Converters

    AOD and it foot brakes to 2800 or so on the motor when it was mildly modded. When Andre says 3000, he means it.

    Edge Racing Converters

    First off, excellent product and service. Now for the results. ON my car with the stock motor and bolt ons in my sig, I got 1.3 seconds quicker. But you'll need some sticky tires to take advantage of the new converter. Most guys pick up around .5 sec or better with just the converter.

    AOD tranny question, regarding rebuild.

    Ford purposely built the aod to shift with less force into OD. The OD band in these trannys is relatively thin and weak. The softer shift saves the parts from breakage and the valvebody actually prevents a full throttle upshift into OD for this same reason. No kit is going to make this shift...

    If you just bought them I'd bring them back and exchange them for some 26" tall tires. Will fit much better.

    what determines your shift pattern???

    Lentech makes a valvebody for the aod that makes your pattern P R N 3 (OD spot) 2 (D spot) and 1. You turn the OD on with a electric switch. If you leave the shifter in OD it shifts automatically up to 3rd and then you just flip the switch for OD.

    First time at track, poor ETs

    You're pretty much wasting that 3000 stall with the car set up as it is. You should really get some tires. The old saying is for every .1 you can take off your 60' time, you take .2 off your 1/4. So if you can get that 60' down to a 1.9 or 2.0, you're into the 14's already. With a mildly...

    torque converter question

    The stock converter in an aod is a lock up converter. I've got one and many others have one too. No mustang left the factory with a non lock up converter with the aod. I had to get a different converter and input shaft just like 89 Mustang said. As far as the original question goes; Art Carr...
