If you can't get a blown 5.4l with 325/15 drag radials out of the 12s, where exactly do you come off telling him what his car should run? Have YOU ever gotten a bolt on Mach 1 with his mods in the 11s?

Damn that's gotta hurt when your own quotes is wrong. But thanks for proving autocock wrong.

But you were right when you said "we all assumed". Thanks for clearing that up.

Remember if I did **** like most others I would have a 12 sec 115mph ls6 f-body.
Well in that case, the fact you think ALL blowers make the same HP at the same boost levels makes you look even more ridiculous. Stick to basic bolt-ons guy and you'll be fine.

LOL....if I were that far off at the track like you claim I would've been busting my *** to get back to the track. Besides I went faster than you @ full weight and w/o drag wheels/tires.

You have a stock kmember with holes cut in it but yea nothing is hacked in your car bahahaha. I don't care to go back at this point for more then one reason.

So when are you gonna make fun of my motor swapped, gearbox swapped, wiring swapped, fuel system need, chassis reinforced, ported blower Mustang you dumbass. That's a real swap. You can't run with it either.

No need too you don't talk about it. Regardless tho I think it is funny how a Bolton 03 cobra swap is a REAL SWAP but your ls6 is what? Factory? lol

I am not wrong moron either way you look at it you are an idiot. You either mad a stupid claim about the ls6 and 2.3 and realized you could not back it up. Or you think that a ls6 is the only motor that can make more power on a bigger blower which is even worse. So either way you look at it you made a dumb post that made no ******* sense as usual.

I think my biggest downfall is that my 2-step is currently set at only 3600 rpms. I had this set before I built the rear but never changed it. Maybe it is about time I bring that up to 5K. LOL!

Easily changed. Just never did it. (yea I am an idiot sometimes)

The car seemed to be mostly stock. When he slowed down I said to him it doesn't run too bad a a V6 does it? He said that thing is a V6? I said yes a 3.7 liter V6. He said you totally dusted my ***!

Here are a couple of my other son's vids showcasing his driving ability.

Bolt on LS1 vs heads/Intake full bolt on 5.0 - YouTube

87 GT Powershifting at Drag Strip - YouTube
Very nice! Just goes to show what a good driver can do. He is even running that ET and trap with 250HP and 300Trq. I realize that that Fox is a light car but he is getting the most out of that car by driving it very well.
Maybe I will pass on our race...LOL

I have never understood why some people will stick their necks out and make claims about stuff that they know very little about.

If I don't know much about something (blowers and boost), I'm not going to try and make claims about it that are based off a gut feeling. I just won't say anything at all, or say that I am not familiar enough with it.

Caleb set mine at 4500. Worked awesome, even on street tires.

Good runs foolin. Gotta watch those mustang guys.....they seem to need .....I mean have something up their sleeves....lol
I had a f cam in a stock 91 302 block, Edel non ported street heads and a Performer intake. never dynoed but at 3450 race weight it ran a best of 13.08 @ 109.8 with a 2.0 60 foot on Radial TAs... if anyone even knows wtf a Radial TA is, it's an R rated tire with no grip...

Do these 6 cyls run 110 mph and low 13s? If so I should start looking at them, The SS's barely run that in street form... lmao

With mods they do. Bone-stock they are high 13/low 14sec cars.

check. I assumed the OP's car was stock, didnt think they ran 110 stock. He said 102, that is still very impressive imo.

Nice job on the launch GTOSpd! That RPM you suggested will be a good one to start with. Much better than 3600.
I will bring my SCT and adjust the 2-step rpm to see what works best.

You planning to come to Fayetteville? Looks like it will be cancelled tomorrow but next week I'm gonna bust down the gates and run even if it is raining.

Yea, saw the forecast for tomorrow. It did not look to good but the weatherman seems to be wrong 90% of the times lately. LOL.

Technically, I have not put 500 miles on the new clutch yet due to either rain on the weekends or just working a lot of hours right now. I would like to come down though to run it but I will probably not drop it higher than 3500 rpms right now. I saw on FB that you guys had a good amount of guys going down. If it gets cancelled tomorrow and moves to next Sunday, I will take a ride down and meet up with you guys.

did I say that????....No......You have no clue what I saying. My research has backed it up and it's been posted. The fact that some think one size blower fits all amuses me. Stick to nos.......they tell you what jets you need.

If you can't get into the mid 11's with the new rear then you should sell your car asap.

His car is quite capable but I think it will still take some practice to get there since he will have to get used to his new setup. Once he gets the launch down though, he will get there without a problem. IMO
