    drag racers....goals for 2011

    Well, this unit is already modded with a VT stroker, VT stage 2 heads, VT Cams, K member, full exhaust, drag suspension, lightened up, etc.... It's my first mod motor after several 306 hci combos, so hitting 7s should be done fairly quickly given the mods. If not, I'd be shocked. I'm looking...

    Who here daily drives with 4.56's

    The only thing "split" is your personality 5spd. You have no idea how many cars I own or what my idea of comfort is. What part of daily driver did you not understand? I'll help you out since divison seems to be a problem of yours. Add dumb plus ass together and the result is you.

    Who here daily drives with 4.56's

    4.30s on my daily driven lx 62 miles each way to work. Over 700miles a wk. stock hci and I get over 250miles to a tank. It depends on your goals with the car. My first stang was a 85GT 165/Bigs650/FTI that really picked up going from 3.73s to 4.30s. In that car, I should have moved...

    What are some good, inexpensive rear control arms?

    I brought the GMS solid u/l kit from JDsPerformance a while back for $135 shipped. I have heard and read about the issues many have had with the GMS adjustables, but I can only report mine have been working fine in my car. Big difference over the stockers.

    Added fresh bottomend (306), ported intake, and longtubes...gained just .8 mph...why?

    So how can you comment on what I should run when you do not know my cam specs? I could have 450"/456" lift with 210* duration on both sides for all you know I don't care about your cam specs. You could have a stock cam for all I care. In fact, I'm basing my opinion on what your car is...

    Added fresh bottomend (306), ported intake, and longtubes...gained just .8 mph...why?

    How about you post up an old timeslip and your new one. Telling us you sixty'd .0x difference from your last run is bad info. What tires are you running? Sounds like you need a tach, a new tranny, and some more seat time at the track with the new combo. You should be well in the 7s...

    Sup folks, I don't usually post, but I thought i'd share my initial mpg results with everyone in my new beater. Driving 90% highway, I managed 373 miles on the tank with a little more needle above E to play with, but I was in the country and decided not to risk the long walk home...
