ever considered an auto, that setup would be nice w/ a c-4 behind it, nice transbrake valve body, and still fun as ever to drive on the street.

those 205's look heavy. I could take them off you hands for ya and I would pay shipping I guess LOL. What numbers are you looking to get from it?? Looks like you will need to upgrade the rear to a 31 spline system if you havent already. Bet with that much power you are going to twist an axle or break the c-clips. I am jealous, they look freakin awesome.



Edit- Any idea on what you are going to do with those thumpers..... I may know someone interested....

not really looking for HP numbers more so track times hoping for bottom 11's with a stick, axels are on the list and will go in the car before it makes a pass on sticky tires. the entire setup in my sig other then the block is going over to my brothers 94 GT for help with the install of all the parts.

I garuntee you will go faster w/ a c-4 and drag radials. I use transmission specialties in Aston,Pa for all the c-4's I've done. They get the converters right and have a decent price on really nice transmissions. Drag radials are much more stable on the top end, and w/ the right suspension work like a champ.

yeah I agree with the above in the 11's I see most mustangs at the track running autos and drags. But I gotta say I did not know DR's made the car more stable at the upper end.

Good luck with the build and make sure you post plenty of pics.
