¿Which time is ideal in stock?
Mustang 81 conver. 1990 (but motor 1988 302 H.O. F.I.) 5 vel. + rever.
Reed said:2220 m is 7284 ft which is 1.4 mi. That's over 5 times longer than the regular 1/4 mi track a lot of us race at.
Most stock 5.0s will do 14 to 16 seconds in a 1/4 mile depending on the condition of the car, the transmission and the driver.
I'd say 18.7 seconds is quite fast to do over a mile, so now I'm just thinking that maybe 2220m is your elevation? Sorry, now I've just confused myself.
What was the length of the track?

Edit: Haha, should have kept my mouth shut. I'll say again, 14.5 - 16.5 seconds.

Luis911 said:I ran 1/4 and now my best time was 17.7
And week later my best time is 17.2
My tires are 245/45 17, on street i have 28 of pressure, on 1/4 mile I tried front tires with 26 and rear tires 20. It is good? What are your opinion?
Thanks

I honestly only saw a handful of domestics in the 3 months I was in the country. You've managed to knock 1.5 seconds off your time by getting better at driving it seems. Have you done any more modifications yet?
Finally someone who feels my pain.Tonys89GT said:222m is about 7000f t correct? Thats pretty dang high! But I think 18's is still pretty slow. You should be able to crack 16's with no prob. I live at 4500 ft and most stock 5.0's here go mid 15's.
Yeah, it sucks! You see people brag about their 13 sec passes with only a K&N and some exhaust.Curse said:Finally someone who feels my pain.
