damn...3/10's. That's pretty good, i wonder what my car will run when i strip it out and get a healthy engine instead (in my '84).... Keep us posted on how you like the 3.55's! I'm buying an '89 with 3.55's within the next month (it has quite a few mods) and i'm interested in what to expect with the 3.55's. Way to go stang runner!

I have a set of 3.55's that I want to install in my 93 5-speed, but someone told me at the track that I should go with the 3.73's...? Why are you going with the 3.55's? I hope that will be the better choice for me as I already have the 3.55 ring & pinion...definately post your results after the gear swap! later!

WOW! You weren't kidding about gutting the car! Next time loose that passenger seat(damn thing weighs a ton) and bump your timing with some high octane is you haven't already. 3 tenths! Impressive.

Light Em Up!!
