know ive got che control arms on the rear ive tried 275 40 17 and 255 50 16 and neither will hook im running turbo coupe springs with stock replacement shocks the car initial hit is good it picks the front tires up then bam it starts spining u have to get out of the gas and get back on it, for it to other wise it will just burn them, so i know the car has atleast a 10.80 in it, im just not sure if i need drag shocks or some real slicks i have no clue what kinda power the car is making but its the vortech with the stock 3.33 pulley i believe not sure on the size but its the 10 pound kit with a powerpipe and water injection and afr 165 heads any input on what i do to make this thing stick is greatly appreciatted
thanks
Robert
awsome dude good job!
what block or you running?
stock 302 block with better rods and mahle pistons
Robert
you might want to be careful. I'd guess you got close to 400hp if not more. Stock blocks tend to split in half at the 450 to 500hp range. There are a few guys running speeds close to what you have. If you can get an air bag on the side that tries to twist it would help out some with your launch. There are also better spring and shock options.
What are your 60 foot times?
thats a nice 1/4 mile time is that a V-1? vortech added a ton of stuff to my cougar XR7 upr coil overs in the front and che a-arms in the back and Caster chamber plates and subframe connectors but the car does not even have like 25 miles on it so i can't really say how much that stuff has helped yet but it rides well.
Talk to Chuck W buy everything form him and then go look into mustang performance parts to finish out the rest of it.
Mounts or plate holding it to the car?
Solid mount on the drivers sidevim debating on 90-10 up front I'm getting and airbag for the passenger rear need some input on what needs to be done I've got che control arms
Robert
if you get it to hook perfect, I'll bet you can hit 10.5's in the 1/4. I would get an aftermarket or 351 block if I were you though.
You may be right I'm sure there's more power in the tuning but I'm not sure I wanna push it any harder LOL I've talked to ChuckW andvhe is working on me some stuff and I've got and airbag I'll pick up tomorrow
Robert
your mph alone should make you able to launch well into the 10's.
