first run R/t .659 60' 2.293 1/4 13.923 101mph

second run R/t .237 60' 2.163 1/4 13.802 101mph

third run R/t .228 60' 2.052 1/4 13.7 100 mph


i couldn't believe the car ran so fast i was only expecting low 14's. The only thing that threw me off was it was a pro tree and i was told to hit the gas as soon as i saw yellow. I was wondering if a pro tree made it easier or harder for reaction times?? the temp was about 75 degrees with low humidity over here in jersey.

those are really good times for a basicly stock car i went 13.1@107 spinning off the line and second gear shift. if that is english town that you are running in jersey that explains the fast times that track is the fastest in the country if you want to go after a record that is the place to do its like 75 feet above sea level.

yea i am thinking about doing both this winter. Could i do them both myself??? I dont have much experience but i have the tools and the patience. What do you think a stall converter would cost with the installation.

thanks

a lot. Install is quite epensive as it involves dropping the trans, and if you gona drop the trans might as well be it beefed up and a shift kit put in. Honestly I would get more mods, wait for the trans to blow/sllip then drop it and get the converter and shift kit.
