After all these mods I run 14.5?!

SlowStang2 · 09-03-2001, 10:30 AM

ALright I ran it on a G-tech last night, but I do have a slip to go with it.

60' 2.31
1/8 9.4
MPH 76.73
1/4 14.501
MPH 96.86
The G-tech has always been accurate to me because I have used it at the track. The 1/4 times have always been the same, but of course, the MPH was off. My MPH last night was 103. The only mods I have made from this slip time are the HEADS and rebuild og engine(800 miles ago). Oh and a strut tower(getting subframes welded on wednesday). 0-60 5.9(best ever was 5.8)
Cam=stock. I havent changed it due to a possible chance of getting a lot of money for a charger.
I launch at 3000 (slip the clutch at a higher RPM and leaves at this RPM) I know this is not the best way, but I have tried other methods and they are a pain in the *** . Maybe one weak point on my part?
fuel pressure=38
shift points=4900-5200 Before heads car was dynoed and made most HP at 4750 RPMs and most TQ at 3500 RPMs. I do not know if these heads would change the highest HP RPM, so youre gonna have to tell me here.
Altitude=sea level (or whatever Moroso is)
Timing is set at 18<~~which is what the COMPUTER set itself to! When I manually set it to 14* it pinged and died at high RPMS. And when it got hot, HOLY SH.IT..! Dropped timing, worked but a mechanic hooked up that expensive computer code finder/clearer and changed the timing to 18 all by itself. I know, I dont get it either..

I have the 3.55s because I do highway driving. And I figured that would be fine due to previous mustang owners running mid 13s with these and STOCK cams. Now yes they arent converts. but i have weighed my car with other stangs and it weighs 3650 with me. Only 200 lbs more. 2 tenths off?

What angers me more than anything was that I ran a 14.3(my best) with stock heads, stock mass air, 19lb inj. and 3.08s. Now I may not be doing something right myself, but you have to believe all the trials I have given this thing. Statistically, I should of *accidentlly* gotten a decent time by now, if not that then a good MPH. What I am going to go do now is change out the inj. with the stock ones along with the stock mass air. I do not understand how this will benefit since I have all this air coming in, but its worth a shot. And If it runs the same, I am going to get better mileage so until I change the 24s and 77mm maf back in, maybe ill have another option or two. Hopefully..
