I told you it will really sound nice when you spin it up there. Now for a nice set of slicks, and a vid should satisfy the rest of us onlookers for our advice and praise.
This is great! The front end work you did reduced weight and also affected your front to rear weight balance. You should have a much better weight transfer when you launch.
My question is how can you tell a 1-2 MPH difference watching your speed gauge and keeping an eye on your tach? Seems like the speedometer can't really resolve a 1-2 MPH difference.
Well, im not watching the tack till after i pass the sign, just after I see the speed (im running out of RPM now BTW...over 6K). Im watching the speedometer and road, and the sign lol. I can see the sign and right as im about to cross it I look at the speed and can see the sign go buy and know exactly how fast I am going. Like I said its VERY VERY consistent, its not like one day it does 84 then the next it does 89...it was always 86-87MPH. Now its always 90+. About 4MPH on adverage gain at LEAST. It would do more if i could catch traction.
Yea my weight spread should be a bit closer to 50/50 lol. Im thinking around 55/45.
69, yea it sounds MEAN @ WOT and high RPMs....just like a powerful N/A Big block. It doesnt sound like it has 281 CID anymore, just deep raw power, yet smooth sounding. I love it...part throttle is kinda iffy, you really need to drive it just right for it to sound really good...but reguardless it still sounds MEAN, just like if you shift @ 3300ish it sounds even better/meaner, and again really deep.
BUT one think I dont like about the LTs is that a free revup sounds like crap . Just funny sounding, and you can hear the exhaust pulling back up if you know what I mean. No popping, but its the sound that precedes the popping. Since the exhaust is very well equalized (X and LTs) it doesnt pop at all....never. But overall I am VERY happy with the sound.
