I have a slow LT1 you can run.

 

army have you ever run your car at a track? dont call it a 12sec car till you know it is. im just saying because ive owned a 5.0 and i liked it but it was far from a 12 second car. from what you've described, unless you put it on a serious diet i highly doubt your in the 12s, not on those tires anyway. the fact that your car beat a lt1 i can see, the way you say you train legnthed him is what im calling BS on. i just don't see it happening is all.

 

props on the kill, your stang must be set up and tuned good cause the 2 built 5.0's im used to running around here both have longer laundry lists than you but even the stroker falls short everytime.

 

Amazing, I had a ****load of stuff on my Fox and it cracked 12.9 1 time n/a

Was a solid 13.teen car tho

I've always heard an HCI 5.0 with traction is a 12 second car. "Pretty easy."

 

Have not changed your sig yet eh?

 

So do you actually have a 12 second time slip?

 

Errr - 4.10's with an AOD are too much now? I could have sworn in some thread you stated you have knowledge with these Fox cars?

If I had to guess why it was so ''slow'' I'd go with - 246rwhp/318rwtq - but that's just my opinion. I feel the car was maxed out for being an untuned speed density car, she gave all she had and squeaking a 12 second slip was pretty good for the mods.

Hell I HAVE a 12 second slip, but I don't claim to have a 12 second car because it was never backed up.

There's plenty of Mustangs in our area and while I love the body style - half the time they dont' run as well as you may want to lead yourself to believe.

My Z28 slaughtered many a 'stang around here. No comparison.

 

4.10's are not too much on an AOD car and its 2.40 1st gear by a stretch. I said it before, I think the Explorer intake unported was a mismatch for the ported heads. That and the speed density that was mentioned and stock cam? By the way Army, do you have some pics of that car of yours? I would also like to see a few copies of the slips (I am assuming there is more than one). You make a lot of claims but I have yet to see one single thing to back any of it up.

 

My new setup is even worse IMO

Stock GT lower intake - TW heads - Boxed upper intake.

I need to have the lower intake ported but it's what I have right at this moment.

The turbo should still be able to force the air in pretty good for the time being.

 

Oh well in that case I have an 11 sec car now. With the MPH it should run 11's, it just needs a better 60ft to do so. But I guess that means I can tell people I drive an 11sec car.

 

In the 1/8th......

 

I see Army used the old "slipping clutch" excuse, that is a term worn out by the 5.0 world when they get beat or when their stuff doesn't run as good as their mouths do.

I've owned a ton of 'stangs so I'm hip to the lingo.

2.73's, slipping clutch, full weight car equal 12's??????

 

Do you have a timeslip even for the 1/8 or did you G-Tech the car?
