Default I am a trader, sorry fellas

I went to the track tonight, and managed a 12.39 @ 112. This was with the no shifting crap tranny. I also picked up my freshened up 3550. I ran my street tires, new pep boy Avengers ( $59.00 ea.) Of course I had to granny shift 2nd again.

Now the trader part. Last week I swaped to mass air . I had too.... I put a 70mm air meter with a big FAT set of 30lb injectors. They are way too big, the fuel is way down. I don't seem any diff than the SD. But I will be changing the air meter to a 86mm and the sqirters to a set of 42s.....To go with the PowerMaster 70mm turbo sitting at my feet. Yes I had to go Mass air. Sorry.

Sounds like you are spending your tax return money wisely. Can't wait to see some big #'s.

It is not tax money, I have dreamed of this sence 92. It took this long for my dreams to come true. The guy helping me is in Brazil, he comes home next week so it should be real soon. I changed jobs at Thanksgiving last year and I am in good shape from now on.

What ever rings your bell. I personally like all fast cars Euro, Jap, or domestic. Each car, depending on credentials, must command a certain price. In my eyes, it's a world market and a person just has to find what he likes and can afford. I klnow I'm waffling a little here, but that's how I see it.

I agree Rev, a fart pipe car does nothing for me, but a 10.60 import is something to watch. And if any of you want the EFI stuff, I am going carb with the turbo. A nother grand and a half today on fuel system, whooooo my wallet hurts.
