new results Well first things first, I had be battling my car since I put my heads on this winter and I bolted on a few other things. 60fts where awful most of the time 2.1 or 1.9 , before the mods. I was cutting a 1.5 on the same drag radials remind you I spend almost $3000 to go from an 11.14 to an 11.07 as you can see I was very disappointed to say the least. My goal was a 10 second daily driver, I would have been happy with 10.99. Dang!!
So more money and bingo problem solved, like usual money is the key when this is your hobby, ha ha
I add new Viking double adjustable shocks on the front and while I was at it I done a battery relocation and removed a few more things , I took 80lbs off the front, every little bit helps right, as far as weight reduction it only added up to 45lbs though, and I also added an tick master cylinder so no lift to shift , how sweet is that.
after some adjustments where made, I ran my fastest time last night 10.675 at 130.37mph with a 1.621 60ft and the 1/8 was 6.883 at 102.45 .
finally some good results , thinking might have a little more left in it, but my bottle ran out so until next time.

Thank you sir,
Your parts and customer service is fantastic, with all my transmission woes and all the problems I had with busted parts, without your tech support I probably would have went to an automatic .
Glad I didn't, I have one tough transmission that can handle the power I'm putting through it.
Hats off to all of you at Tick Performance for helping us hobbyist stay running fast.
