I Must Correct you! 8850 has run 10's with 300rwhp!! (2400lb race weight) Haha. We don't have to get all technical.

We all know it takes HP+Traction to get low ETS's, and just HP to get high MPH's.

I will check that thread and scan my sheet tomrrow.

SaleenGTS,
What kind of clutch are you using? I've been going through the same thing. I am using a star clutch(spec) right now and love it. I have a bunch of hard slick tire passes on it both in the 10's and 11's. I have a stage 3 carbon clutch. If you're intrested I'll dig up the number for you. The pedal effort is less then a motorsport and has about 300psi more clamping force. SPEC rates it over 600hp and 700ft lbs. The release is also quicker then anything I've used. I only had about 30 passes on a motorsport and it died the first time I made any good spray passes.

My 270 rwhp got me 12.80's @ 111 mph. Race weight is about exactly 3000 lbs. I guess I can drive pretty decent.

Sky, you should really weigh your car. You can easily do it on the freeway at the truck weigh stations for free. Then you would have a pretty good idea if the dyno is off or not. It very well might not be, but 330 Mustang dyno horsepower is about 360 on a Dynojet. And I know from all the crap you heard from your post on the Corral, that that number is pretty high for a stock shortblock 302 with off the shelf bolt-ons.

I imagine you should have a race weight of 3600 or so pounds.

Rob,
Your mph is right on the money. If you're making 270rwhp that gives you right around 320fwhp if you figure 15% for driveline loss. I used one of the handy dandy calculators on this site and if you figure a 3000lb race weight it comes up with 12.30@110 with 320 hp. Was that 270 before or after the valve guide fix? We need to get a clutch and slicks on that car of yours

If you don't have much going on Saturday let me know. A few of us locals are getting together up in Utica for a grill out. I may hit Lapeer first thing in the morning and make a pass on a 210 shot and see what happens.(I'm bringing a basket to put the broken parts in lol) Not sure how much more those hypers will take....

My race wieght should be around 3600, Sky's should be much lower. It has no back seat and lightweight racing front seats with no ac and aluminum heads. Its a lot lighter than your average fox.

Can someone please explain to me what a mustang dyno is?

87Vert, That was before the POS valve guide fix. It seems to run much better now, but the dyno will only tell.

I am moving this weekend as well. Then I can get the approval from congress (the wife) to do the clutch and tires.

I'll hollar at ya.
