Like most mod motors the 3v is also only 9.8 to 1 compression.

3v Is at the bottom of the n/a race in the modular world but this one seems to run good. Good runs btw would like to see a more even hit next time.

The Mustang definitely impressed me. Still glad I never bought the 06 Roush Stage 2 all of those years ago though lol

Nice runs!

Agreed, but you run what you got. Certainly an impressive 3v and a great race!

I agree lol. I was told the wide and wasn't inaccurate by a friend so it was mainly for decoration. Turns out my tuner said it was actually quite accurate. Oh and there was a nice bolt on 5.0 there. It's the one I raced at the beginning of the year. He beat the 3v by a car. So I believe I would have had him by a car or so. (That's not aimed at you Evan) lol. Just basic info. Because lots of people were saying e would pull me on here.
