For suspension upr solid lowers double adj. uppers, stock GT springs in the rear with stock shocks. Front Susp. is WORN out stock struts, 4 cyl. springs, no sway bar, 15x3 1/2 draglites. the car has a MM 6 point bar and full length subs. 3140 race weight with me in the car. 60 ft. is 1.64-1.68 12.80's @ 102-103.I used the stock crossmember after grinding off the welds. I also used a Steeda spacer for the driveshaft(11/16). I'm leaving off a 2 step at 3500 rpm and shifting at 6k, Daniel

I dont see why a c-4 is your answer, it's great for dragracing, but not very streetable, specially a manual valvebody.
If I had a 175 shot spraying with my slicks, id probaly have the wheels up in the 1 and 2nd shift

with my t-5

(something would break)

And guys that hang the hoops running drag radials, have light cars and worked suspension.

that king cobra clutch would explode with a 175 of juice.i was looking at the redneck c4 and thats what i was goin to go for.im in the 11s now. you said its there 4000 stall.does it stall at that speed with your mods?

The converter stalls to 4200 maxed. I leave at 3500 on a two step.
