Default Got in the 9's in my LTD, JY 5.3
Hit the track for some easy passes, running 235 mt drag radials and running it thru the full exhaust(6 mufflers), scaled out at 3689 with 75lbs of fuel out of it. Put in a really soft boost curve, left VERY easy. We made a pass on the street last night on these tires and no burnout or prep, with a more aggressive boost curve and leaving harder than this pass, lol. Lets just say the car has a lot more in it!

More details on the build in my old thread, car now has a glide in it instead of the th400, still has the 2.73 gears...

Yeah buddy. That thing is moving on the back half. A 1.4 60' ft seems doable.

Easy! this was an easy pass, im sure I could leave with another 100 plus rwhp. I just wanted my 9 sec pass on the little tires and thru all the mufflers.

Watching that car go down the track is frightening and hilarious at the same time.

Running the numbers it would appear you're still in the 686rwhp range for this run?

I was thinking high gears and pg leaving with more boost would be easier if it works. Won't have to worry about a trick boost controler and all that.
