I shift the ol' 87 at 5500. Shift light is set at 5400, to give me that little bit of play on reaction.


Dyno'ed on a Mustang Dyno, peak torque was at 4K RPMS, peak HP at 5400 RPMs. Car is just now starting to come around though. Used to be so dang rich that it would bog on the 1-2 shift, slowly getting the bugs worked out, no more bog. Hoping to get the t-lok rebuilt and get back to the track this spring.

My 02GT is built and supercharged at 12psi. It makes power all the way to redline. My redline is 6600.

Damn, do any of you NOT use shiftlights? I've never had one...even when the car was proshifted.
