Reply #3 – July 17, 2006, 05:39:27 PM Quote from: shame302sweet..... so what was it...14s....?Close enough, 13.9s and 14.0s @ 100 mph...very sad despite the weather.The car isnt pulling like it should, I need to get a wideband on it to see whats going on. But it is very streetable, so I will leave it like it is for now while my dad drives it. It has gone 13.5s before and I cannot remember the mph, I need to dig up the slip. I changed the plugs before I went to Autolite 25s, maybe it didnt like it. I was running 13* timing, it was pinging at 14 where I had it. Im not sure whats going on. Quote Selected
Who doesn't like a burnout pic? Reply #4 – July 17, 2006, 06:08:58 PM Not bad at all. I took my mach1 a week ago and couldn't get into the 13's. It's been 2 years, and I have never been to the strip before the mach1 in my life. My best is only 13.69 in my stock mach1. The car is capable of doing 13.28 or better, but I guess I'm still new at it. I just hope I can get my 86' LS to do 13's. 265HP at the wheels. I'll wait until after CatJam of course. Quote Selected

When I did spray I usually set the timing at 10* and ran Autolite 23 plugs. Right now Im running 13* timing and autolite 25 plugs. When I get the chance I will hook up the wideband and see what the A/F is doing. Quote Selected

Yeah, I ran the station wagon three times in a row lol. I was trying to line up against an 05 GTO that was there, but no luck. The wagon ran mid 16s I believe. Quote Selected

Who doesn't like a burnout pic? Reply #13 – July 20, 2006, 07:51:18 PM Ronnie on a iron headed motor I'd never run more than 24s, and in this weather I'd stick with the 23s... I've run the 23 equivilent in my TF headed 5.0 for over four years. It's never fouled or even carboned a plug and as you know my $hit is gettin tired...BTW I just finished servicing the tranny... The collection magnet had a large "beard" and pan was black, hope it holds out till racin' season is over(then I'm also hopin' the crank don't push out the front of the block)...:hick: Quote Selected
