its a T4 flanged 88.

a 6.71 is somewhere around a 10.30 probally 135ish give or take a little. all the heads up stuff around here is 1/8th so i dont really care what it runs in the 1/4. If i go to another longer track then ill worry about that.

it would probally go a 6.4x the way it sits now, just need some more seat time, and figuring out launching.

Still nice runs. You have to try to do something with the rear end. I'll bet the first time you launch on the T/B you'll go about 10 feet and be picking up pieces from your ex-stock rear-end. You do realize how much you are leave on the table with the 2.73 stock rear end? I know money is always a concern.

Good luck this year.

Pretty cool, nice thing about working on the 1/8 mile ET is you will pleasantly surprised in the 1/4 if you keep the gear reasonable.

Very nice... Yeah a 6.7 is a 10.3 or so... 6.3's have been in the 9's for me. My 9.40 pass was a 5.9.
