Newbie 12 sec T-bird July 14, 2007, 07:21:11 AM Hey new to the forum,I have a 1986 T-bird with some goodies I just started to do my UPR front conversion.I went to the track june 20 and ran a 12.380@112.38.I could have had a better run but the car was getting loose at the end so I let off a little I am hoping to hit the 11 sec range next time out.The UPR kit will drop like 75 lbs and fix my loose motor mounts that are hanging on for dear life.

Newbie 12 sec T-bird Reply #9 – July 14, 2007, 07:04:37 PM It is a street car all the way!I just removed the a/c because the condenser made the car run too hot around town but it was a daily driver until the 100* temps down here in florida now it is just a weekend car but it is very fun to drive this grocery getter it's a sleeper for sure.http://www.coolcats.net/photos/index.php?ID=493 Quote Selected
