Bet you pick up 3ths or more with the auto. Good running car looks great also.

I hope because I cannot power shift and lose boost on every shift. I also have an arthritic condition that slows me down too.

I'll probably lose 50-60 hp, and trap less though. My best ET with the 5 speed was 11.1 and my best trap was 130.69 with 516 hp. I think if it's set up right mid tens are very possible.


Thanks

oh I am sure Mid 10s are in it. I seen you run if a few times at M/D I talked to you once over at the track with Jeff that has the T-Bird. Once again nice car Jive, not bad for a 4.6 2 valve motor. Have you seen TFS is coming out with a new 2 valve head?

Yeah they would be nice but unless I have to I'm not tearing into again lol. You can never have enough and I really can't justify the expense anymore.

Jeff is running my old stock shortblock in that thing. The last time at MD I was putting down 516 and 598 now, but I'm done making power. Plus I'm going auto which I'll lose 50+hp so around 540 after that. but it should help drive better lol.

You know me, a I joined about every mustang site I come across. It's hard to keep up lol.

Do you know why I'm not getting email notifications when people post to my subscribed threads? I think I have ever thing selected correctly in my options?
