I would say you should be pretty close right now. what times are u currently running? First off i would say those injectors are too big for your application, also how is the car tuned right now? give us a little more info as to your current setup and 1/4 mile MPH....u should be close though

I sure hope that combo goes into the 12s. If not dont buy anything, but tune it and get it there!

Some cars are pickeir and easier to drive than others.. if you have had the car tuned then simply get some track time... I have seen plenty of 11 sec cars with a 13 second driver... On slicks 12's should be possible with the mods you have, so get in there and drive it..

i havent been to the track with this set up yet, but i just bought an ajustable fuel pressure regulator, and plans are to go to the track with out a tune and see what i run then during the week get a good dyno and tune then hit the track and see what i run then. i was getting 13.7 at the track with P&P heads and intake, e cam, 1.7 rr, u/d pullies, 19lb injectors, LT headers, o/r x pipe, traction bars, 3.73, t-5 trans, cai. now i have the t-56 trans, on march 5 is the first day the track opens and i will give time slips, the dyno numbers a week after that

I would slap a set of 4.10 gears and a Eibach drag launch kit. should run low 12's with your combo. If you want to keep those 30 lb inj then drop fuel pressure to 35 psi without vacuum. Good Luck!!

4.10s with a 6 speed isn't that a bit much?

Click to expand...

5 and 6 are overdrives anyway so it should't affect his 1/4 mile. 4th gear is usually 1:1 no matter which tranny you have.

i was thinking about the 4.10s but i decided to stay with 3.73, it is great w/6speed trans, good gas milage. i am going to buy the drag springs, as for skinnies i don't know i will have to think about that ohhh yeah for go to mention i already have sub frame connectors. thanx for the tip though. the mustang pullies pretty hard, i am thinking it will run low to mid 12s but that will have to wait till march 5th.
