Default Mustang Mach 1 1973 Launching Video

Hiya, Got a new Digital Cam last night, so I took a small video of my brother Launching in first gear.

He couldnt hear me say ready which is why I told him 4 times.

Anyways, I know it is hard to tell, but from what it shows how fast does it look like it can run in the quarter? That was only first gear, he let off switching to second...

Right click and save/as
Specs (From what I know of)

1973 351 Bored (.30?)over
Manual
Comp Cam
Edelbrock Intake
Edelbrock Headers
MSD Igitiion
Some crappy custom Exsaust (1.5 Inch pipes!! Gotta get it changed owner before put it on!)
4.11 Gears
Posi Rearend
Holly 650 Double Pumper

Most likely forgot some other things.

Going to go take another one tonight, now that I know how to use the digital.

Any requests?

Also, Do you think that the 1.5 inch Pipes are hurting the power lots? A friend recommended Flowmaster Kit with 3 inch piping. What Flowmaster Mufflers should he get as well? He wants Max Preformance and LOUD sound!

Comments?

Well, the video didn't work for because of these stupid gov coms, but as for the exhuast, I think 2.5 would be plenty big enough for that car.

Trying to guess a ET from that would be just a shot in the dark. Sure sounds good though. I also agree that 2.5 would be fine. And the 1.5's are probaly holding you back, but not much by the look of that video.

But it sounds great, and the video is pretty clean. What kind were you using? I really gotta get one of those!
