RE: What does a 8.9 1/8 transfer into in the 1/4?

That formula isnt correct for me at all....

I ran an 1/8 of 9.086@78.23 and a 1/4 of 13.975@101.97

hehe
according to that formula i shouldve run a 14.384

I guess that PROOVES i cant drive

That sounds really bad, maybe the guy was just a bad driver.

He had an intake manifold, CAI, headers, 373 gears, new performance transmission, hurst shifter, MSD Ignition, H-Pipe exhaust and some more stuff. Seems bad, 14.1 for all that work

No way in hell will that make 300 ponies on an 87 GT. 14.1 sounds about right.

I think the "some more stuff" was probably like you know... A supercharger, maybe?

so it has around 245 @ the wheel

8.9 in the 1/8 converts to a real slow 1/4 mile*LOL*

foxes can have great 60 foots with a few mod and grandma behind the wheel..to many of your guy put 1000's of bucks in making hp and not working on the supension..I have a near stock running 13.70's only mod 3.55's 76 maf 65 t/b and a few other tricks with all acc including a/c
