i would like to think that is a solid high 13 second car with 1.8 second 60 foots. but with my 3.27 swap, i got slower so i dont know

 

I'm hoping its a 13 second car now. I know it pulls ALOT harder than stock. It kicks most cars in towns *** Sucks what happend with your gear problems. Usually when they bolt up bigger gears, it cuts down thier 1/4 significantly. I still think you ran it on a bad day. You going to run it again this weekend?

 

nope i dont think i will run it again anytime soon. its gonna be hot forever LOL

and in 4 weeks i got to go back to school so i probly wont be able to run it again on tues and thursdays. i might get in one more time before the end of august but after that i dont think i will have time to make it to the track

 

You need to get some more slips good or bad. Get some Drag Radials and see what those 3.27's do

 

Do you have a baseline ET as your car sits now? Those mods may only take a tenth or two off. I would say low 14's.

 

Well, I know that individually they don't create a bunch of horse power, but together the work smoothly and it runs much stronger than stock. I really need to get those headers/stall to see a big improvement.

 

I think if you got some headers you should brake high 13's. I seen it done before. Buy a 2600 stall convertor on ebay for $130 shipped to your door that will help too. Oh yeah I have a brand new Transgo shift kit never open for a 700R4 want to buy it? That gives you those hard shifts and save your tranny life also. I never got to use it because I order a 700hp trans.

 

Hopefully the headers will net me high 13's. BTW I already have a shift kit, it's fun.

did you guys install your shift kits yourselves? was it hard or easy?

 

Well, I'm not 100% postive mine has one in it, but there is no way this car would shift that hard from the factory. I reckon the previous owner did it. I'll post some 700R4 tech articles on re doing transmission out of a mag. in a few days.

 

woo hoo! I finally have the $ for headers. Any preferences that you guys like. I want to spend less than 500 for Header/Ypipe (doesnt have to be coated). Ive been looking at Hooker 2055s at ThunderRacing.

 

Hooker is a good choice I had mine ceramic coated well I bought them for $287 shipped to my door. Here a set on ebay for a really good price.

They have to have A.I.R. Or what do I need to do to remove the air stuff?

 

Where I live we don't need that stuff so I got rid of my emission equipment. Where do you live and do they check under your hood for inspections?

 

Well I was hoping to get non air headers, but I wanted to be on the safe side. I found an old inspection card from last year and I have to pass egr but i dont think I have to pass air. So I would take it off of there, but I don't know how to do it without messing it up.
