This week i should have the cam and stall in if all goes well, but you know how that is . You think i might dip into the 6's in the 1/8? with a 125 shot? I ran an 8.74 stock, and now ive got the built tranny and all the other goodies..

Only problem i've got right now is trying to get my stall in, bc i have no clue how, bc i have never done that before.

I duno.. You'll be close I figure low 7's Its takes a good bit to dip in the 6's.

The stall is easy to do depending on how your doing it. If your laying on the ground using jack stands it might take while. But it you have access to a lift and a trans jack then its pie.. I can ususally know them out in about 2-3 hours.

I looked on myfoxal.com and they have it listed as 55* or 58*.. Didnt see anything like that in the 7day forecast.

Gald you got your car running somewhat decent, I know how much of a pita they can be..
