I didn't make anything do anything...The car just works for some reason. The 28x9 Hoosier was the key...I don't think this car will work right on the street with the 26" M/T's, but you never know. Only reason I have 26" M/T's is becase I had them laying around. Next set I buy will be a 28" Hoosier again.

hey spaz, I have a race for you
A stock internal 107,000 mile daily driver small block.
untuned as is your race car (bounces of rev limiter and runs super rich)
on a drag radial compared to your slick
completely stock suspension
on pump gas
and saying high DA is a reason for your times is gay. My beater went 12.2 in 90 degree weather after driving it 50 miles to 41, not letting the car cool down i might add. and then a month later it went 12.2 in 60 degree weather.

I'm done for the year Spencer unless you would like to go for $500 or more. It's not my fault your **** is untuned, slow, or whatever the **** you were crying about a few posts back. Put the money up and I'll bring my car back out, otherwise come see me next year to get your *** blown back. Thanks, Happy Holidays!

I understand tuning the carb and suspension, but how do you tune the trans? Do you have a 4l80 behind the BBC?

Meaning dropped, possibly rebuilt, finding the correct shift point ect.

And winter for me has begun, its already under the knife
