I ran NA last night to see what it would run and here are the results:
1.99 60ft
8.66 @ 81.76 1/8 mile
13.44 @ 103.81 1/4 mile
I need to get the car out of the hole better, I probably need more converter than my TCI 2800 stall, which doesnt stall near that high. Id like to get into the 12s NA.
I made a couple passes with the 125 shot:
1.83 60ft
7.94 @89.5 1/8 mile
12.28 @ 113.44 1/4 mile
Not my best, but personal best at that track which is known for not hooking vary well. Temps were around mid 50s, 8x% humidity. I plan to go back one more time before the winter.
Anyway, it would be nice if ppl could post their NA times, and combos so I could get an idea of whats next in order to get into the 12s NA. Thx
Ronnie
There's no track around here, but my NA times would likely be in the low 17's or high 16's :D

Yea its a old time slip, but it went 8.43@82.9 in the 1/8mi last fall down at Northeast, again on a 1.90 short time. Earlier the same evening it broke 83 mph on a 8.45 run, my Bird definatly likes cool weather.
Interestingly the 16.52 in the other lane is just about what a totally stock TC will run..
Polar Cat, what mods? Nice times.
Blown306...didnt mean to exclude anyone, I was just tryin to get some ideas on N/A combos. Thx
Eddy heads,19# injecters,65mm TB,B-cam,76mm MAM,2800 stall,4.10s out back,GT40 intake. And your other basic 5.0 bolt on junk thrown in there. That was run with the car cutting out at 5800 in between 1st and 2nd.
I agree about more stall,I think if I could get the short time down I could run 13 flat or 12.9?.
mods in the sig, eighth mile in Holt FL. sea level track 45 degrees not to humid. terrible short time of 2.6, 9.44@ 77.5 mph.
Mine went 13.7 @ 101 (3700 lb) with my P-headed stock cam N/A combo...
13.2 @107.2 WITH
EFI roller 351W
Tremec 3550 5 speed
non-locking 3.08 rear
street tires
Hey Bill.... how you been doing???? Anything new with the Coug??? Planning on making Carlisle???
So hows it run with the blower????
Yeah I'm still alive. Honestly Tom, I haven't driven the coug in more than 1 year. It's under a cover in my driveway with a 5.8 that needs a rebuild. That pretty much goes for the whole car as well. I've mainly had my hands full with trying to hurry up and finish school, that and my job and finally getting the house finished being rebuilt. The exterior is all done, just needs to be drywalled (fun). I sold the MN-12 back in December, and have had my hands full with the replacement. Not bad so far, I've put about 14K on it since (yeah I drive ALOT) but still has under 80K miles on it. I'm actually thinking about making this one a secondary show car since it's in such great condition. It's the only car I've had so far that I haven't done a single mod to, not even a K&N filter. But yeah, I plan to attend all of the normal events this summer, just won't be in a cougar for a while. But it'll come back bigger and better, I guarantee :D
Best time ever in the car.
60 ft.: 2.116
1/8 mile: 10.017 @ 68.75 mph
1/4 mile: 15.671 @ 89.98 mph

Bleh! Best I've done so far is 13.00 @ 108 @ with 6 psi pullies... :disappoin
I'm upgrading a few things this year - cam, intake stuff, water injection, suspension etc... I'm hoping to be able to up the boost a bit at the track and get well into the 12's... :flip:
Best time in the bird was an 8.27, that was with a 60' time of close to 2.0 at 89 mph. Best 60' was a 1.90 and best mph was a 91 mph
Well when i first got the car I ran a consistant 17.2 best was a 17.0.at like 80mph
Then the rear blew and so came 373's and full exhaust then we went 16.2 at 86 mph not to sure on tha mph though.
Then came the swap with the other mods you see in my sig
15.2 at 93 with a lousy 2.4 60' with a sliipn trans. Oh, how I cant wait to see 14's
Times of my cougar dont cout no more.
Hope april 24 to be at the track when it opens and put down the same or faster times with a T bird.
Good lookin' LSC Mercoug.
'tanks. Although it seems to be a mojor task to keep it that way. I've owned the car for about 4 months and it has oncurred about 20-30 new scratches on it just from being driven. NJ sucks >:(
14.9@95 with a 3second 60'...:( after the suspension upgrade this winter ill see how i do.
Mine times on my 83 cougar LS
1/4 - 14.85
mph- 95
i put a 351W in it with a c4 tranny mild shift kit 3.73 gears 8.8 rear end.
engine has a mild cam it was for a truck at the time i got it and stock heads with the small valves pocket ported. performer manifold and a edelbrock carb that runs like . shorty headers. only 9 to 1 compression. street tires so for about 40 feet i was spinning down the track (doesnt help the time any)
