FirstPasses in the 408LS mustang After all the money and aggravation, today made it all the worthwhile. It was the first day out with the car and actually my first time ever down the track at all. I had no idea what the car was going to do since the whole suspension was redone this past week. I had a blast and the car worked great!

Best pass was 10.31 at 133..I think there is a little more in the ET with some seat time and some suspension tuning. Over the winter I'm gonna get the right converter in the car and shoot for 9's on motor

Actually just re-did the entire suspension. All Team Z stuff in the rear...Anti-roll bar, Dbl Adj relocated uppers, Dbl Adj lowers, Strange 10-ways, and V8 springs with a coil cut.
Front end has an AJE K-member, Team Z A-arms, coilovers with 12-150 spring and Strange 10 ways
Car works perfectly, hooks great and goes pin straight

I honestly think the car had more in it just the way it is but I wasn't leaving nearly hard enough. Should have been leaving a lot harder off the transbrake but I guess I was a little nervous to break something. Next time I'll stop being a B@#$h and drive it!

Thanks a lot Tim, I'm gonna end up with a converter similar to yours I think. Something like an 8" 5200 stall. Should really wake it up. Between that and some seat time I think I'll get there. thanks for your help!
