Yeah, my UT-4600 tighten up some with the 3.73's, much more drivable, (harder to hook up <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> )

I hope you can make it to Eunice. If you do, we will line up our two bolt on cars up. <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

Well the motors been in the car for a couple of days so it was time to run it. Car was full street trim 3640lbs, full exhaust (no cutout), and all accessories. Weather was about 50 degrees and 97% humidity.

60'..... 1.51
330..... 4.58
1/8..... 7.17
MPH..... 94.03
1000.... 9.42
1/4....... 11.32
MPH...... 118.70

The tranny is still hitting the rev limiter because it does like to shift for some reason, and the converter is still way to big with the 3.23 gears. All and all I extremely pleased with the car. With some bugs work out I think the car has a lot left in it, I hope. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

Oh damn, I think I'm being called out! <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" /> It will definitely make for an AWESOME race.
Paul - You've got an easy .1 just by opening your cutout! You've got easy 10's in your future. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">
