Re: New best 60' and e.t./mph

is that a TH350 in that?
you run that on just premium pump gas? is it a street legal car still?

Re: New best 60' and e.t./mph

congrats. Our combos are quite similar (cept I'm heavier, more compression, and a 110LSA cam) I hope I can get those kind of times out my car very soon... If not I'm just going to fill the bottle and start spraying it. I've talked to Patrick at PRO Systems a few times and he is always quick to answer, friendly, and seems quite knowledgeable. I might just buy one of their carbs when I get the cash.

Nice E.T.'s I am hoping mine runs that quick with some more tuning and maybe a gear change.

How did you get the car to 3000lbs. Is that with you in it.
