OK guys went to the strip last night. My tires are worn out so I didn't get a better time but my mph in the 1/8s are up 1-3mph. Can't wait to get my suspension so I can hook up.

Had my first blast in the top range today. I had to let off at 135 but 5th gear has so much more pull than before. I am amazed.

I still havent taken it up past maybe 115 with the 3.73's, but i bet i will peg 150 easily.

I just dont have the ***** or the desire to do it on the street. I need to find an airstrip and just GOOOOOO lol

I'm not arguing. You can take the rev limiter off and rev that thing to 7k for all i care. You're most likely not making power anywhere past 6k with bolt ons, and thats being generous.

And your arguing with me that your car is bouncing off the rev limiter at 110. Is your speedo 100% accurate? When i race at the track, i am looking at my speedo. When i cross the line, my speedo reads 100+, but my speeds are sub 100. So what you see is not always 100% correct.

I really don't care about this at all though. Idk why i even wasted my time posting back in this thread twice in the last 10 minutes.

My 4th gear with 3:27s tops out at about 125 I believe, but I'm not sure. I know I saw the speedo at about 120 or so and 5500rpm.

There was some dude at the track last night with a mach1/ built suspension & sliks with 4.30s. He woiuld shift so fast out the whole and it was HOOKIN! I want a track car with 4.56s now
