Anyone wanna take a guess what a 88 notch thats been stripped pretty hard 8 point bar,Upper and lower control arms,3.73's,Subframes,Bcam,GT40 intake with 80mm TB,headers and its a 5speed.Any guess what this car might run?

 

12.30s-12.60s 105-107 if its pretty light. that 80mm tb might kill it though.

 

It was like 3,050 with a aftermarket subframe but now bac 2 stock.The TB is what I got with the car is use 2 be a charged car so going to use it see how it works for now.

 

that tb is waaayyyy to big for that cam. youd be better off with a stock tb.

 

I have a stocker but my upper intke has been opened for the 80 already.The car will be runin mild ported heads in the next few months.

 

i bet if you put a stock one on it will pick up, even with the opened up throat on the intake.

 

I had a friend with a similar car except probably a little lighter. The engine was stock 302 shortblock, Holley system max kit:heads/cam, headers, 4.30's and 26x10 ET drags. He ran 11.90's@112mph N/A on a good day and 11.00's@121mph on 175HP NX and the gear was too low for n2o and the stock ECM. later Clint

 

Car also has no back seats no heater box and the bat is reloc to the trunk.Also has 1.6 roller rockers!!

 

13.20's @ 103mph.

 

I hope not 13.12's my bros 88 hatch with just a b cam and 1.7 roller rockers and 3.73s does that!!!Well 13.5s at 100

 

In my mustang experiences, for every good running mustang combo there are 10 heads/cam/intake cars that can't get out of the 13's. I say get to the track and get a baseline.

Also 3050 is pretty heavy for a stripped Notch.

 

I have a guy with elderbrock heads and intake and he is runin 13.4 at 106 but its his 60 foot time.I was just thinkin he was sandbagin

 

Any coupe weighing over 3,000 must have a trunk load of dead hookers. Mine w/ an iron 302 & a C4 weighs a scant 2600# and that's with factory glass and a cut stock hood. Fiberglass and one of them fancy tin can engines will drop it well under 2500.

Depending on your driving skills, the fact that it's presumably on stock tires puts it anywhere in the 13-15 second range. Best way to find out is to make some passes with it. We all gotta start out somewhere.

 

Yeah M/Ts will be happing soon!!!Waiting on my clutch fork and cable!!

 

Is the T5 stock? Slick tires will be hard on it. The old LX I ran had about 30 passes on it (10 on the track 20+ on the street) with a 28"x10.5 ET STreet throwing anywhere from a 200 to a 275-shot at it. The transmission chattered so bad, it sounded like I had rocks under my seat.

Best of luck. The Fox-body cars are easy to make fast, especially when you can run a 200-shot on the factory motor all day long.
