4th gear wasent enough for 3.73's!?


you should be at 120mph at 5500rpm
(considering 3.73's, 27" tire, and 4th gear)

you want to keep spraying after 120mph!?

Your head looks like you took a chisel to it. Those rings beat it up. What heads do you have? You might be able to get it milled down to smooth out the surface some. But I really don't see it causing a problem if you get all the burs off of it.

Heads are afr 165s, yea guess i can try to smooth em out a bit.

And no 4th gear wasnt enough for me pretty sure it tops out before 120... and i run it to 6k but either way also could be different b/c of the tko600 and 17x9 cobra r's? If i wanna go faster thats my choice call me what you wish your opinion.

Started tearing the car apart a bit more today got the fenders and front clip off and started removing unnecissary wiring on the passenger side ill try and get some pics tomorrow gonna try to hide all the wiring and smooth what i can gonna be a long interesting process as i dont have a welder and dont really know how to weld.... guess i will learn
