Last night we finally had a new guy out in a fox body 5.0. we talked for while and decided to go have a race. he said that he ran a 12.9 in texas on slicks. here in northern utah elevation kills so a texas 12.9 is no high elevation 12.9. Anyhow he had gt-40 heads e-cam, ignition, and was on street tires.

The first race my rust showed and i hit 5th instead of third so we went again. We both launched ok and he pulled slightly in first and then then i pulled three or so cars by the end of the quarter. He was cool and it was nice to not have to race another ricer.

 

Sounds about right. Average high 13 second gt40-e cam 50

 

GT-40 heads are old school, the valves are much too small and the flow numbers are off quite a ways versus more modern heads like the AFR 165 and 185. Good kill.

 

good kill
