UNIT: I'm not sure about my top end...I do have the stock tach so I really dont know if I'm shifting when I should, etc. I shift at 5500-5600 RPms still feel like its pulling at the time. My whole best run is as follows: .830 r/t, 2.188 60', 6.016 330', 9.170 1/8 @ 79.17MPH, 11.859 1000', 14.133 1/4 at 99.53MPH. Again, I'll try an easier(less spinning launch with no bog) to see if I can drop those times in the 1/4. As far as trap speed goes, dont know what's up there(I haven't been able to hit 100 yet). I did have a valve spring bust at about 50K miles, replaced under an extended warranty by Ford, but for some reason I feel that has something to do with my bad times. Guess I could get a dyno test to see? Any suggestions would be great.
