1st Run:
60ft-1.749
1/8-8.52
MPH-80.2
1/4-13.362
MPH-102.05

2nd Run:
60ft-1.805
1/8-8.508
MPH-80.87
1/4-13.408
MPH-98.05

I was wondering if anyone could tell me why my times were so close but my MPH was so far off. Sorry didnt get any vids.

shift point may have been slightly off??

jjw88mustang

so shifting where i did on the second run would be the better place?

mjr46

by looking at your 1/8 mile times you were on track for a faster et so something may have happened to slow you down in the 3rd to 4th gear shifts cause after the 1/8th mile with out seeing the other time measurements it's hard to see where the slow down occured but it happened after the 1/8 th mile on the second run

i bet it was the 4th to 5th normally i just take it to redline in 4th but i decided to try 5th and i bet thats what messed it up. makes since now

nonetheless, great times and awsome 60ft's. I just wish I could break the 2.0sec barrier. Good job!

Thanks its pretty easy with slicks though. Does low 13s sound about right for a b cam gt40p heads and explorer intake?

I would say those times with your mods sound about right. Old technology combo, but it sure runs good. Before the Vortech my combo(TF heads, cam and GT-40 intake) w/auto ran a 13.1 and 13.2-.30's consistently. I also made 271rwhp and 311tq.

yeah this winter i am puting a new shortblock under it it has 170k plus right now and maybe a new cam and heads this summer. I would really like to get it into the 12s
