That is good to hear. You have a lot of time and money invested in it. Glad to see it worked out.

Awesome although I don't like the chevy useage lol real solid trans though. Suspension is a huge factory in how it runs, so hopefully wont take too long for you to get that all worked out!

that much power with an average stall should put you in the 9's if the car is light enough

Stall was flashing at 4100 lol, and yeah I also have the psi on the tires to high, and struts/shocks too tight, along with the traction bar disconnected

What kind of exhaust do you have? I like the way it sounds.

this cracks me up cause it is the least expensive/uncomplicated thing on the car!!!

the exhaust consists of stock cobra manifolds, upr un catted mid pipe, and MAC 3" pro dumps.... cost me 450 for everything lol

Did you have any problems with security on this swap? My tuner did one and had to run a hot wire to get it to the Ford place. This was on a later year model car than this though. Like a 97 or so. I assume you didn't have any of those problems?
