June 17, 200717 yr Author comment_212558 It ran well. Maybe to well. The suspension is a little to stiff, it kept over powering the track. Tried all sorts of launching from 800 rpm,s -3500 . Best et was 10.12 w/no traction. Last time i went to the track w/original suspension and motor was a little weaker, best et was 9.70 through the 1/8. Some thing else i noticed is that the track is a lot slicker than the street in front of my house he he. So sticky,s here i come!!! Gonna test out the supra next week!!

June 17, 200717 yr comment_212566 I have a few, It has a full flow tech exaust system w/flowtech header readies,aluminum flywheel,brass clutch,tranny swap,super coil,taylor 8mm. wires,I took the clutch fan off and installed an electric fan in its place,eliminated power steering, to take drag off of the motor and replaced the gas tank w/a fuel cell. And i replaced the restricted exaust manifold w/a big belly manifold. and also cold air. Thats about it. Thats all i can afford right now.Your power band is nosing over past 6,000rpm.Absolutely pointless to take it higher unless you like re-arranging the rods.

Thanks 4 the tip, How ever i do have a spare set. All though i dont care to use them. I decided to back it down last night. I did some testing with it and it and because of the humidity she fell of of the power band a little. I was still pulling pretty good @6,700. after that she fell on her arse. I have a little more work to do before i go back to the track. I promise i,ll try keep it under 6,000. Thats hard to do in this car cause its too much fun.
