Ok, I went to the strip today. The first time I spun like crazy off the line and then spun again hitting second(never done that before...ever) so that time slip was an embarrassing 15.59@92.68
Second time out, my hand slipped off the shifter between 1-2 which earned me an even worse time of 16.44@87.48 Third time, which was my best and last run I got a 15.05@92.58 The temperature was 70 degrees and the humidity was 55% My best 60' was 2.205(last run) After my 3rd run I decided that was about as good as I ewas going to get and went home pissed off. No sense in beating the car further. This is my everyday car I use for work so I am not that concearned. I have my '82 with the 351 that will be my playtoy. Actually, the drivetrain in that is getting switched over to an '89 body shortly. ------------------ '82 GT 351W C-4,BBK headers,Carter 625 carb,Comp.Cam,Flowmaster exhaust. 1988 GT...T-5,bone stock |

I shifted at 5500rpm and rear tire pressure was 28lbs. It's a fully loaded car so that has a lot to do with it.

if it's stock, you're shifting to high.. drop it down to 4900-5100 to keep the engine in the torque curve.. ;-)
