And 290 flywheel HP on that car isn't TOO bad, even with your mods...

216 rwhp is FAR from 290 crank hp. 216 rwhp is more like 260 bhp.

last month I took car to track for first time
ran a best time of 14.4@95mph, had car dynoed also and got 216wrhp. those # are worse then a stock mustang.


Stock GT's push around 190-195 rwhp, so I'd say that 216 is awfully low for a car with Performer heads and a TFS intake. Did you personally install them? Or did someone sell it to you like that?

You should be around 260-270 rwhp with the AOD.

The 19#ers are killing you, you also need a higher fuel pump too.

Is your converter working properly?

Just some things to check over.

Good luck.
