Your engine would love a shot of spray but I doubt that you could hook it Smile

With my factory suspension, detroit locker and 10.5 inch mickey thompson tires... I cant hook this engine, even at partial throttle...

Hopefully I will be adressing that during the winter, with a sub frame tie, mini tub, and 4 link suspension... but thats a whole different post, and a whole different wallet I have to fill up first Smile

Shane before you cut up what appears to be a nice car, take a look at the article, ONE F.A.S.T HORSE. Featured in the December 2010 Modified Mustang & Fords magazine. The car has made high nine second quarter mile times since the article! A bit of ingenuity will get you more nods than a cutting torch!

thanks for the compliment on the car... I use GregP's big block Torino as my roadmap as to what I want my car to be... I think his car retains a very nice stock appearance, while putting the power to the ground.

After reading the suggested article. The one issue I will have with traction compared to the guys in the article, is they are racing on a prepped track, my track is the street... un prepped, and far from perfect. Thats why I think more tire and more suspension are whats going to be needed to overcome the inconsistencies of the road.

sorry for the hijack
