I was just wondering what kind of suspension mods you have... to run a 13 flat @ 102 is damn good traction . What are your 60' times like ? Peace...

Btw I ran a 13.64 @ 103... no 60' time i'm afraid sorta psuedo 1/4 track... pulls hard off the line... pretty tired block too...

 

A friend in my club ran his completely stock 80,xxx mile 350 tpi one day at 14.7.

Mods and time in my sig. 13.00 @ 102.7 is pretty damn good, but he's not the only one. I have seen people his 12.8's and 12.7's at only 105.

I have hme made SFC's, Home made boxed tubing LCA's, Home made tubular PH rod, all urethane suspension bushings, tranny mount & TA mount, right rear air bag, Eiabach Pro springs, KYB struts and shocks. Stock Torque arm, and I have a trick that I do with the front sway bar as well.

Since then, I have added an 8 point roll bar, & a home made chrome moly TA - hopefully the car will still hook as good with the new motor.

I have pictures of most everything if you'd like to see for yourself.

BTW - 60' times were low 1.7's
