Default Finally had fun with my car after a long time

Exhaust didn't come apart / fall off; valve cover gasket didn't blow out; didn't have to worry about running out of gear (added 28" M/T DR tires).

Only issue now is my exhaust is pressed against the body and stock panhard bar. I ordered a BMR panhard bar relocation bracket and panhard bar.

Finally had some cool weather (60s) so I ran a new best mph. this was my last run. I spun hard off the line so I got off the gas but was right back in it.

60' 1.859
1/8 7.248
1/8 103.14
1/4 11.028
1/4 131.55

I was pretty happy.

By the way it's a 427 ci, 6 spd.

Threre's a TON left in your car once you get it hooking, hell you probably have .4 in the 60 foot alone, that mph, and the gain from the 1/8th to 1/4 mph wise tells me that you have a potential single digit car
