not a problem MikeROD like you said you learn something everyday you know...Im goin to leave the set up like it is cause the head has 2.08 intake valves and I didnt want to do what the guy said but Im gonna see what happens when I get the cam back....and plus I gotta get my CPU programed cause its still at the stock setting rite now and it wont let me go pass the stock rev limiter so rite now Im short shifting the engine....when it hits the rev limiter it trying to pull pass it so once I get that done we will really see whats whats....

if they grip right off the line with no trouble, why buy another set yet? and the bigger the tire, the slower your acceleration.

WAIT one second. I have been around Mustang racing for some time now... Let me add up everything in this post.

You have an unkown block, bored to 306 CI. AFR 205s (ported as you claim), Spyder intake, 75mm TB, 80 MAF, 24 lb injectors, X cam, and a shot. No mention of tranny, rear, chassis etc... You say Drag Radials it went, 6.11 @ 109?

Also I notice you said it WANTS to be shifted at 7900, but you launch at 6500 and shifted at 6800. Later on you claim stock rev limiter which is 6250.

SOOO... what is it? A mismtached, short shifted, unkown, drag radial car running 9 second passes, or an intricate lie to get Stangnet guys swinging from your e-nuts?

Nothing seems to add up at all and thats from someone sitting about 30 feet from a low 10s high 9s car built here, with a few more trick parts than that.

I'd just like to know a little bit more about the car because those are some impressive times. What's the drivetrain consist of? Tranny? Clutch? rearend? suspension? A 6.11 1/8 time is good for around 9.60s in the quarter.

Yes the car still has its stock rear suspension,tranny,rear end with 3.73 gears. That is all coming out now. A detroit locker,4.10 gears,31 spline moser axles,c-clip eliminators and moser rear end cover is goin in now.It already has a Centerforce dual friction clutch and a aluminum driveshaft.I dont know whats up wit this car it just wicket I mean the car is fast as ****.All I know is the motor was intended on having a supercharger put on it.

Hmm mid 9s according to the 1/8th mile in a bone stock car with that motor, and some bolt ons...

Nope don't believe it. Not to mention you feel the computer was "jacked up" and sometimes the limiter works sometimes it doesn't. Where is that roll eyes smiley face...

But good luck lying to the rest of the board who will believe it, and have a nice day .

Thats a record setting car right there. Something the pros can't do!
