What should i be able to run?

RoadWarrior · 04-10-2002, 01:33 PM

Over the winter i put a new engine into my '82 Gt and since the tracks are still closed here, dawm snow, i was wondering what some estimates would be on how fast i could get down the 1/4. All the info is on my user ride and the hp and torque are fwhp. Heres the link, any guesses will be appreciated.
1982 Mustang GT
Also what type of increases would i be looking at going to 3.55's or 3.73's?

Nice numbers!!
If you can drive mid to high twelves at 106-110mph.
If you are like me on street tires with road race type suspension low to mid 13's at the same MPH.
Good luck.
Let us know when you run her.

You didn't mention if you plan on running slicks or not.
It's going to depend on traction and your driving skills if you plan on reaching 12's

Foreseeing taction as a problem, 13.10's around 104 or 105. Better traction equals better times. Let us know.
