Hey clay.. I'll be around tonight and i'll be out at the track tomorrow night (weather permitting).

I finally get to run my car tomorrow night, I'm pretty excited.. I probably won't run that well since I'm not used to it, but i'll still have fun!

You have to run it to see what improvements have been made. I heard your car tonight and it sounded pretty good. I was going to get a close of view BEFORE I got pulled over, oh well.

jasonh_86 · Aug 6, 2006

Thanks Clay!.. How'd you do at the track this weekend?

cctinnell · Aug 6, 2006

Best run on motor was 9.9

jasonh_86 · Aug 6, 2006

Dang.. that's fast!

I MIGHT be able to hit a 9.9999999999 with a 1.8 60ft, perfect shifting, awesome weather, and some nitrous.. but definately no where close on motor lol

Try spraying 100 to your car. I think that it will like it a lot.

It will .. but i just need to work on my traction first lol.. It was HORRID last weekend

The cams I got are supposed to LOOOVVVEEEE nitrous, so I might go to that as a last resort after I get some DR's, control arms, gears and other stuff of the sort.. But I should be running 10.6-8 consistently once I start getting decent traction and get the right gears for my setup in the car.. Right now I am very badly under-geared.. So after the 4.10's go in, i'll be doing a bit better

And maybe if I spray it, hopefully I can touch a 9.9999999999999999999999 lol

That's what I'm talking about.

jasonh_86 · Aug 7, 2006

hell yeah.. maybe i can handle a 125 with a tune

Spraying 4.10s? Hope you can shift.

It'll be all right. Just adjust the timing and get a set of cooler plugs.

Get a tune for sure, as you know.

I'm still deciding on a 347 stroker with all the trimmings, or a S-trim

My brothers old car with a 347 and a procharger was an interesting street car. Just make sure you have the suspension to back up all the power. I wouldn't mind going with another 331 and a turbo, who knows the next powerplant for the t-top.

Get a good 347 setup going first. That is what I would do anyway. Then get a S-trim or procharger next year.

lol.. I can try!

I may not spray but the 4.10's are a done deal

I wish it was that easy

I gotta tune the car for nitrous.. every 96+ OBD2 mustang needs a tune after nitrous, cams, headers, blower, turbo or anything of the sort.. Kinda sucks, but it runs damn awesome afterwards!

If I do get nitrous, i'll get an N/A tune and then a nitrous tune.. that way, when I don't want to spray, I can run as fast as possible on motor.. and when I want to spray, just upload the Nitrous tune and run as fast as possible on nitrous..

Procharger

Only if you like rebuilding and having to do oil changes on your blower.. He should go with the Novi2K for his application.. the S-trim might be too small for him, actually.

The S-trim works nice at lower power levels, but isn't much of a blower to build on... However the T-trim and the Novi 2K are awesome blowers and have LOTS of potential locked inside of them.. they can handle a LOT of power!

I can't go 347 and blower with out killing the stock block for sure. I would need to get a Dart, and full assembly with the good parts would be in the $4500 dollar range just for the shortblock and very likely more. If I went with the Dart block, I'll be getting a 363 CI.

The S-trim would be just fine for my stock block. I don't want to push it past 450rwhp. The S-trim could easily acheive that with enough boost.

347 will make less power. S-trim will make more power.

Decisions, decisions

All motor.. but I am kinda biased!

prochargers are the best, if you get a p1sc, you will be set, my car was out of control with the 347 and p600b
