Skyler, nice to be back
Thanks unit
LX, stock 15.20. But the last time I bought a motor, I put it in the car bone stock. Old wires, mud from the wrecking yard, etc... I had to use my underdrive pullys and headers. Reguardless, it went 13.42 @ 102. I changed plug wires and the intake and TB, it went 13.0s. Then "MY" E7TEs and it went 12.80s @ 105 On slicks. Then the B and the Edle's
it went 12.8s at 107.99 on street tires. Then changed from flowmasters to QuikFlows and went 12.55 @ 109.5 on street tires. Then tuned it to a 12.38 @ 112.?? on Street tires. then a slick pass of 12.17 @ 111. then a 100hp hit of http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif gas, spun like crazy let up, missed 5th on the big end and ran 11.72 at only 109.

I got a 393. Check my sig. for the combo info. I had a local reputable engine builder build it to FRPP crate engine spec and made sure I tied up the bottom end with a DSS main support system. It runs like a bat out of hell and I haven't even had it above 5 grand. It's a lot for the streets around here. Only had 200 miles on it when I realized my tranny cooler was clogged (teflon tape), but it was too late. The damage was done. I was told by my engine builder than my bearing clearance had increased about 4 thousands from spec and that my tranny expanding during the overheat pushed against the crank. He told me I could still drive it but not to get on it super hard and not to take it down the track until I can get a new set of bearings. That's what I was told so I'm pulling the engine this weekend but the bad news is the track closes this Sunday for the season so I won't have any ET #'s until next spring http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif But I know that it has to run in the 12's. Are you thinking about getting 1?

Welcome back dude! What color is your car now? I figured you were away painting it flourescent orange or something hehe http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif

I have been considering the 393 myself when I do finally decide to pull the engine so reply if you run one.

ROTY, a have been considering a 393. I honest to goodness believe that I can make 500hp with one. Also, it should last quite a while. I will start with a carb, then go to the fuel injection. Speed density.
2fast, its still flourescent green.
