Here is a quick pic, I cropped it and dropped it. I can clean any of them if you want me to. I wish I could have had time to shoot your car.
BTW give me your email addy, I have something you might enjoy.

Mike you did have some bad spin I can attest to that. The wheel spin from what I could hear was pretty consistent each pass. It was fun from a sideline perspective to hear it fighting in third to hook.
I dont know anything as far as times go but I will say when you do get it to hook I want to be watching.
I never did ask what gears are you running?

10t,
1. You need to send me those pics and vids of my car running
2. You need full bolt-ons, gears, and stall ASAP
My car ran pretty good for a full exhaust LT1. On top end it choked itself though. Fell on it's face

330 5.258
1/8 8.245
MPH 81.91
1000 10.837
1/4 13.024
MPH 103.11
60 ft 1.76
330 5.303
1/8 8.282
MPH 82.33
1000 10.864

Marc. I like the list, item one will be done in a couple hours. I can make task 2 quic. I will let you pick the best one.
1. Take my wife to the big town of Ankeny maybe more look we are here type deal for her vacation versus going to Texas. She does like Golfing at BW.
2. Sell two other cars both of which she likes as much as the ws6.
3. Wait till late summer
4. Move out and take the dog.
5. Just buy it now and when it shows up take the route look I opened I can't return it. Could lead to option 4.
I am thinking about just putting the fairlane up for sale at good guys. Then eBay the f100. I could have all the parts here by late july.

Those are good times Marc. The cars running sport on and to its fullest potential with the mods you have. Theres little to be left in the car. Id probably get a tune, you should gain a couple tenths. But Id be very proud with that if I were you!

Thanks Austin!
I bolded what you should do. Either way that 01 WS6 is in desperate need of some mods. The mod bug will eventually bite you
