IBStanged87 · 05-12-2001, 09:57 PM

I have a 87 LX 5.0. Run it last night went 12.12et @108.00mph 1.59 short times. Really ran out of power at the 1000' mark . The stock motor and heads are really SLOWING me down on the top. That is changing soon!!. I am running a Lentech Strip terminator w/ brake and custom 10" converter and never had the first problem. Neck cracking shifts!!

Upgraded to 50/50 Rear Shocks 70/30 Front Struts,Installed 9" Rearend housing ends Moser 31 spline axles, Traction-Lok 31 Spline carrier,Installed 4.10 gear,Moroso solid motor mounts,drive shaft safety loop,SSM Lift bars,Front springs, Boxed rear upper control arms,Converted to 5 lug Front and Rear,Weld wheels Draglites, Mac rear cover,New TRW Manual rack and pinion,Deleted Air condition, Power steering,Autometer Oil pressure, Water temperature, Fuel, Nitrous gauges,NOS booster fuel pump, Added u/d pulleys,1 5/8 BBK shorties, H-pipe, Flowmasters. Drive it like you stole it!!
