WoOoOOooOOooO NEW BEST 1/4 MILE TIMES!!!!

[Adam95GT]

Well guys i took my stang to the track again tonight.... Just at about 215k now... Well it suprised the hell out of me again... you guys that thought 14.6 was quick for a vert with a full exhaust and CAI.... Check these Out.... today i turned the ditsy about 1/32 of an inch to bump the timing a little

NEW BEST!

r/t: .611
60' 2.117
330: 5.997
1/8: 9.249
MPH: 77.12
1000: 12.066
1/4: 14.435
MPH: 95.32

NEW BEST 60' on this run...

r/t: .280
60' 2.100
330: 6.033
1/8: 9.313
MPH: 76.49
1000: 12.155
1/4: 14.542
MPH: 94.77


Now when i first got my car someone told me that noone in a vert had hit 13.9's on stock Heads/cam.... I think with gears and a throttle body i will hit a 13.9....

If I could get a 60' like that I would ANNIHILATE you.*





*by like 2/10ths

 

[BlackVert]

i dunno, 13.9 is a half a second better that your time so far. that is a long time at a 1/4 mile track.

good runs though. it's good to see you smiling again

 

[The Green GT]

I think you may also need srag radials to hit 13.9 too.

But its definitely not far.

 

[87_GT]

that is a really good run. all of this talk about times and such have gotten me very excited to see what my car will run. i have never been to the track before and a buddy doesnt think i will be able to break into the 14's. you have given me some hope

 

[90bronconate]

i went 14.7x in a hardtop WITH gears. . . you're making me depressed lol

 

[trav_19]

lol you know... they always run the best right before they go

 

[69clark]

Nice times!

 

[urban96]

nice! gears, lightwieght wheels, sticky tires, TB, intake, suspension mods and i think you could hit 13.9

 

[Danman765432]

put in NOS View attachment 390380 ...he only said stock heads and cam, plus it will force you into putting a new motor in

 

[Guero]

Good times!!

 

[Adam95GT]

she is still running like a champ... my trans is grinding... but i have another... and im just waiting on straitening this thing out with this kid... then ill be able to rebuild that engine and throw it in....

 

[ProKiller]

Looks like you are having fun at the strip

If your sig mods are current and accurate ................
and
You wanna do a motor mod for a bit more power ................

I'd say you're not gonna find much gain from a tb ... if any
You're just not moving enough air at this point time.

I'd do some pulleys for a gain of tenth to a tenth and a half in the 1/4

The best thing you could do at this time to lower your et (besides more
practice) would be work on lowering your sixty foot. Sticky tires
would help for sure and give you that 2 for 1 gain on the big end

[Adam95GT]

**** i forgot about pulleys... yea slicks would help out big time... but i really wanna be like the first vert in to 13's with just bolt ons on street tires... i dont think its been done yet....

 

[reddy351]

they always run the best right before they go

In a way, you're prolly right on the money with that comment. With 215k on the clock, I'll bet the clearances on the rods and mains are nice and loose. Plus, the bores have prolly become a "low friction" design.


I'd say that as long as you have nice oil pressure, keep running it!

When you do get another longblock, "spray" the crap out of the one that is in there, till it dies.

 

[rj95svt]

I'm impressed you could have the lower intake ported and install some 3:73's and some drag radials not to mention the pullies. You would easily break into the 13's.
I ran a 89 gt with well over 230,000 miles on it when the speedometer quite two years earlier and I ran a 9.54 in the 1/8th. I know your convertible weighs way more and your already faster than that.

 

[gcomfx.com]

lol you know... they always run the best right before they go

I can vouch for that. Times in my signature are right before she quit.

 

[trav_19]

my friends track car would always start dropping tenths with no adjustments and then she would pop lol i have seen it a lot since his motor craps out once a year lol ...i know it dosent affect your e.t. but you need to work on getting out of the hole lol and about the vert in the 13's with bolt ons i think it has been done...but how big of a bolt on are you considering lol because a supercharger BOLTS on haha and im sure you would have no problems hitting 13 then lol

 

[Adam95GT]

I WOULD be scared about blowing it.... but i have AAA plus with 100 mile tow... That engine is sitting waiting to be set up... and i have another t-5 in my garage.... ALSO... my car only burns 1/4 quart every change..... and runs like a champ.... no weird noises or anything...
