Oh ok, sorry i got confused, i was thinking that your brother was you, because he said that hes name on here was bjamick? Yeah he saw he race a mustang, that said he was stock, but had longtubes and full exhaust, and full suspension with a drag launch kit. He made me take my bottle out and race him motor for motor, slick for slick, and i still put 2 cars on him in the 1/8.

if you find a 03 white gt mustang with cobra hood, gfx, white torque trust wheels race him. He has a KB supercharger boosting 11psi, 6 speed cobra trans, lowered, fully built motor, cammed; race him! The guy is VERY cocky, i ran him in the camaro. I went 12.4 to his 13.5 with a better driver than him driving the car. The best pass he put down driving it hisself was a 14.0. He claims 500+hp. Dont bet money against him unless someone else holds the money because he will not pay up. He is a cocky *** marine that needs the **** beat out of him.

Yep it was 626hp and 637ftlbs I believe. We were having some issues that day with my trans bad, then when the trans wasnt acting up it would just spin the tires on the rollers. Ill prolly go back up there next week sometime to let Scott have a try with the tune on it. Its pissing me off. The cold start is a Bitch.. And Id like to see round about what kind of power the 4l80e is robbing. Im guessing around 440hp maybe a little more. 10.7-1CR is killing me. Its alright though, new heads are in the works.

I know who your talking about, a buddy of mine Jason Harney has a red Z28 that at the time only had LT's, lid and gears. They raced in Pinson and he only beat Jason by a half car length. We havent seen him that car since though. From a kick it was quick. Real arrogant dude driving. Car did sound good. Jason wanted to re race him now that Ive done heads/cam/NX on his car. Its quick now, I know he's beat Micheal Layfield a couple times. (03 cobra, kenne bell, NX) His car is the hardest pulling H/C car Ive ever drove.

400's rob too much power, and the gear ratio in 1st is lower so it would slow the 60' down im sure.

Its not that much of a difference in 1st gear, I cant really tell a difference in my 80e vs my 60e and the 4l80e is a th400 with an OD. As soon as steele opens Ill know the 60' difference. I was cutting low 1.5's to high 1.4's so guess we shall see. Ill also see a how much power was robbed when I get it back on the dyno.

Maybe not with your mods now, but later on down the road you'll break that th350. Thats why I say th400. Or 4l80e.. I personally cant live with out OD.

$$$ cant afford the 80E conversion. My dad has had all kinds of car and he put the TH350 in those and was hitting 6.60's in the 1/8 and cutting 1.37 60's. So im hoping it will hold up. But these were with a lil lighter cars but im hoping my car weighs maybe 3300 with me in it.

You still going to have to some cash on that swap. Im not sure whats all involved but for startes, flywheel, stall, crossmember, driveshaft, dip stick tube and whatever else. All the same parts I had to have for the 4l80e conversion.

Just make sure you get a upgraded sprag, and thick clutches and you should be fine for a while. And get ad "GOOD" trans builder
