OP, you got yanked hard, what are the details on his car. A stock motor LS1 Vette with 100 shot would still yank pretty close to that if your mid 12s.

No one is "what iffing" anything dipshit. We are just reading the timeslips and judging what will have the most affect on fast50's ET's; especially considering his 60' times. I think the main issue here boils down to brand loyalty. Had the OP had an LS1 Camaro instead of a SN95 5.0 Mustang I bet that even if everyone else had posted the exact same thing that no one would have had any issue whatsoever. Check that idiocy at the door next time.

I mean really the OP has either a 94 or 95 Mustang with curb weight of 3400-ish lbs with a built 302 and 100 shot. For him to be running middle 12's while spraying that would mean he would have to only be putting down about 260rwhp while N/A. I have built a few 302 Fords and while they sure as hell aren't power monsters they will put down a good deal better than 260rwhp while N/A. Now I am not trying to say that I know what the OP will run but it should be one hell of allot better than mid 12's while spraying.

7.76 is not a bad pass for what I assume to be your shakedown passes on the new combo and tires. That converts to a 12 flat ET.

[sarcasm]Yeah, how dare you analyze those timeslips to get a better idea of what the OP should be running with the proper setup.[/sarcasm]

Your timeslip is pretty similar to what I ran a few years ago in my C5Z. You have a stout running mustang with that little 302 in there.

I did a large Direct Port system for a buddy of mine who has a built 2004 2v GT not long ago. Shoot, before when he was only on 125 wetshot single nozzle he went 11.6's on his shakedown runs. Since then a few things have changed with his combo. The car will sure as hell not be in the 11's anymore.

Fast50, I know you're not writing an English paper, but seriously, would it kill you to make your posts a tad bit more reader friendly?

His engine combo is somewhat a secret so I cannot disclose that just in case someone on here knows who I am talking about. But I will talk about the nitrous setup.

It is a Dual NX nitrous/fuel rail system with quad solenoids, controlled progressively, fueled with a standalone nitrous fuel system with C16 in the tank, and a 20 lb bottle sitting in the trunk.

Here is a picture or two of the system right after I built it on the manifold. We started it out on a 200 shot and will probably move up from there once he gets used to it and has the suspension dialed in for it. The car is sub-3000lbs too but appears to be full weight.

I don't know about that. His combo without spray should be running in the area of what you are doing now on spray. It is a pretty serious setup for a 2V.
