whats your times and whats your set up.

I havent ran mine, but hopefully this summer I will have it back together and take a trip up to portland to run it.

my mods are:

motor removed for weight reduction

exhaust removed

interior stripped (including pedals and steering wheel)


actually I am running a 351W, with a wiend stealth, 224/224 @ .50 cam, with ported 69 302 heads.

I dont plan on breaking out of the 15's.

this is in my 67 that is.

With or without a running start?
Up hill or down?
tail wind or no?

see, if you had not replaced your floor pans, then you could of added the fred flinstone option.

lets make it optimal, running start, with tail wind, and down hill. you can probably open the trunk and doors to fully utilize the tail wind.

May I "borrow" the Jamaican bobsled team to give me a push?

That's the point! That's the only way my Mustang could finish a quarter mile right now!

Well, I have a 67 coupe that has run a best of 11.51@ 115 with a 351w stroked to a 377 with, preformerheads, c-4 5500 stall, and 4.56 gears. I hope to break into the high 10's in a few weeks. New stage 3 cainfields and a big notty solid roller cam. I guess I'll have to get a cage now. later Thomas
Btw The times I posted is in stock trim with et street's. About 11.5:1 compression. The new heads should put it about 10.5 to 1 so I can run on pump gas and still run 10's. And if that does work I know where I can buy a 100 shot.

you can always stick your arm out the window and flap. of course if you're good at this, you'll go in a circle.

I have long arms


65stanger, after much thought you can use the jamaican bobsled team. but all members must be in the car at the start of the quarter mile. That means 3 in the trunk, two in the passenger side, and the pilot (you of course) in the drivers seat.
