Default new time :|

well not as good as i hoped but the only thing i changed was i decided to go on street tires, and i have the 3.73's in the rear this time

2.089 60'
9.194 @ 75.78 mph 1/8

14.398 @ 93.60

didn't change anything from last time and gained over 6 tenths just from 3.08 to 3.73

car is huffing at 5000 and up so it's time for a bigger carb since this car is going all out strip - guy with a 65 with a 289 was running 13.2's with a 850 double pumper on a victor jr and a 600 lift solid cam, i'm not going that extreme but.. i hope for mid 13's after a few weeks of new parts.

Aha! I found the problem!

J/K, but if its a stock c4, then it really is holding you back.

put in a shift kit if you havn't already, they're cheap and I've heard good things about them. Havn't done it to my FMX yet but I will when I have nothing else to do on my car and have extra money laying around

get some kevlar bands n clutches, maybe manual valve body, locking clutch for torque converter. pretty inexpensive stuff and makes a big difference
