Here's a usefull link to a web page that I found tonight.

It has calculators for these following uses. I know we already have some here. Just letting you know what this site has. It does have a few that we don't have.


1. Figuring your HP by using either your 1/4 mile ET, or your Trap Speed.

2. Tire diameter based on the size printed on the sidewall.

3. MPH to RPM in steps of 500 RPM Starting with 1000RPM and going to 7500RPM

4. Rear end Gear Ratio

5. CFM needed for an engine (given for 4 bbl carbs).

6. Compression Ratio!!!!!!!

7. And finally, 1/8 to 1/4 conversion chart.

There's also a tech link that will give you the actual formulas. That way you can wear out a pencil if you wish to.

Plus a few links to well respected manufactures of HI-PO parts, etc.

BTW, I figured I post this, even to you V6 guys.

 

Be nice if there was a link

 

Yea yea yea.......

Sorry. I'm tired.

Look up now.

 

Thing says I'm making anywhere from 102-112 hp. Man my car is bad....

 

Thanks for that link! Here's another one; this is the best tire/wheel/gear calculator I've seen yet. If you're thinking of swapping tire/wheel sizes or rear gears, this tells you everything. You change one value, move to a different field, and the whole sheet recalculates itself.

LoL same here my friend, I had best possible of 120hp, but my engine is too warn down for that...

 

Our cars look alike, our HP rating is alike I guess we have the slow ones of the bunch??

 

That's not really that bad. 2.8's come stock with 135 HP and 160 feet pounds!

 

LoL do you know what else is funny we have the same rims....lol It must be something about our cars, until Isaw your car I never say another one with them...As well as exhaust tips, and even engine bays...

That is true, that means we have about a 17-22% lose through a drivetrain that is old in design and as well in miles.
So were not doing that bad for unmodded

 

I'd rather have this

Joe, THe rime we have are few and far between! I've only seen 2 others around here, and on one car, the guy painted them black I like these rims though. Better then the usual
