Well I was just making the point that the HP is what you use on the top end and if you short shifted, then it might account for the lower mph that people were making the deal about.

oh I agree with you 100 percent

I don't think it would run as hard as it does if it was truly hurt . again sorry I am thinking out loud here I no I sound all over the place

MY 85 GT · Sep 22, 2014

I think Jeff you should trap like 115 or so once or if you get it running right or find the vibration...I know you were not giving it its 100% worth either....

Did you ever take a look at the clutch? I still say to swap in a junk ass short block and see what happens.

I should've mentioned I wasn't taking the car to 6k either the car was being shifted at 5 or so . that could've helped in not mph as well

This is exactly why the MPH was low. I would expect it to be 118 or so, but to get that you will need to spin it to 6,000 for sure!

The more you go to the track, the more improvement you will make. You did well for your first time, practice makes perfect in this scenario

Yeah I figured that , I have a bad wideband so no data on the AFR but before I broke it it was 11.2 as expected . next time I'll pull the filter and bump the big boy tune in with a new sensor and give it a whirl

krazedstang · Sep 22, 2014

I have also heard of the weights on the Centerforce causing problems

TOOLOW91 · Sep 22, 2014

Just ordered the new wide band this week I am gonna try and get the clutch taken care of.

To say I am hooked to get this thing into the 12s in an understatement

MY 85 GT · Sep 23, 2014

Jeff if you cant get into the 12s with that car give up...LOL....just kidding....
