After a blown dizzy gear and cam gear, I put in a Crane solid and new dizzy parts installed by MSD. It ran an 11.45 @ 120

Best sixty foot was a 1.60. Any ideas on cutting my sixty times?

what size stall?

 

[79stang351w]

I have a Precision Industries 9.5 inch stallion with a 4800 stall. Thanks

got wheelspin?

 

[79stang351w]

At first, I had a little wheelspin which resulted in a 1.72 sixty. But then I dropped the air pressure in my slicks to 14 lbs and that change got me a 1.66. I then stalled up the RPM's to 2500 before launch and got the 1.60 sixty on my 11.45 run. No spin. Thanks

did u check the stall? (coast very slowly on return rd, put in high gear, nail gas momentarily, watch tach to see where rpm flashes to.) assuming manual shift valve body, of course.

 

[79stang351w]

I can footbrake the stall to about 2800 before it starts to engage. I don't have a reverse manual VB, but I did the Stage 4, Gregaust VB mods pursuant to http://www.burly4x4.com/c4/c4buildup/stage4.htm

Hard / firm shifts, instantly. I haven't tried to check the stall, but I am pretty sure it flashes up to 4800 when I launch. Thanks,
Mike

What's your rear suspension setup?

 

[79stang351w]

My rear suspension consists of the following:
HPM Mega Bite Jr lower control arms, with the stock upper CA's and stock V-8 springs. No anti roll bar.

Hey Mike

wow, that is a healthy cam for a street car

How many rpm's is that thing seeing at 120 mph with those "little" 26's and 4.56's? You know mine did the same thing...lost the dizzy and cam gear...thats kinda spooky.

Thanks Tim,
It goes through the traps at 7100RPM's. It really has a big top end with the new cam. I'm just trying to figure out how to cut down my sixty foot. I am in the process of putting her on a diet.
