Who can beat me?

mustangLX92 · 06-06-2001, 07:35 AM

My car is a 92 lx. I have never ran it at the track. Can anyone estimate my 1/4 mile?
Also who should I look out for on the street?
Any info will help me. Thanks

Low 13's around 104-105. You will have traction problems, so you could even lose to a new GT, those suckers are quick on the street.

Watch out for new Z's, T/A's, Supra's, 911's, Lightning's.

Prolly will beat you: Vette's, WS-6's, SS's, and maybe Cobra's.

Just a guess though, I may be TOTALLY off, I just know when I was runnin 104's I had trouble with a 96 SS, and I ran 13.20's

What would you would solve my traction problems? What should be my next modifications? I am not rich so i dont have a lot of my.

BilLster · 06-06-2001, 12:28 PM

92 lx with speed density ?
hows it running with those mods?
What type of tranny do you have?
traction tyres drag radials for the street and then n2o to go.more fuel larger pump.

mustangLX92 · 06-06-2001, 12:33 PM

I was told it had a speed density computer
It has a world class transmission.
It runs pretty good. I have never taken it to the track.

screaming_pas$enger88 · 06-06-2001, 01:59 PM

im not even sure what a stock fuel pump is, so i dont know if 110gpm is and upgrade or not.... but im guessing it is. a bigger fuel pump wont do anything unless you have bigger injectors...

If you have a mass air meter then you do not have a speed density computer. Adding speed density to that car would be reverse evolution.

The cut coils will hinder weight transfer (aka traction) Get some real front drag springs.

The A stock fuel pump is 88lph. The 110 will be ok unless you go with any power adder.

From the looks of it you have a basic 300 hp 302. Probably 250 hp at the wheels. In your car you should run well with new LS1 cars, and the other new stuff out there.

The X cam seems like a bit much to me.

We can sit here all day and debate who can be faster than you. Go out and race or get to the track.

Thank you all for the input. What should i do to lose the speed density?

What else do you guys think i need?

dinomite · 06-06-2001, 02:50 PM

I hope you mean 110LPH and not GPH. The make 110GPH pumps, but thats a LOT of flow, and you don't need it.

SaleenGTS · 06-06-2001, 03:29 PM

110GPM...as in Gallons per Minute??? lol geeze, that would be like a freakin firehose in your car...lol

Go to the track and launch in if you have good tires. What is your timing set at. Give your car a drink of race fuel and set the timing. But first make sure your fuel pump can keep up with the combination. Big cam small heads just check around. But run first at a track.
