    I'm still confident that car can do a 1.8 60' how it sits. Just needs some practice. That is good for a 13.8

    I don't see it happening, unless you change your setup. I'm guess that to drop .2 in your 60', you will need more power, or more traction. Are you going to run your bottle this time? Have you checked yur suspension setup?

    I may possibly be getting to new drag radials before saturday. last time I went I did a 2.0 60 ft still spinning a little. My suspension is still stock, No I wont be on the bottle because I wanna break 13s without it. If I dont get new drags I'm just gonna run the ones I got at around 10psi last time I ran em at 15 psi.

    10psi works on slicks, I haven't found a DR that works at 10. 15-20 seems to work best for most. Try 17, and slip the clutch a little. You are probably shocking them to hard - I always do that myself, so I get bad 60' times.

    Yea that may be it, cause I dump the clutch so I wont bog.

    That's the problem. The sidewall on the DRs are stiff, and can't absord the shock that a stick car gives them. You have to preload them, or ease into them. I'm not very good with them. Slicks are easier, as they absorb the hit with their soft sidewalls.

    Sure, if you have enough money... but you couldn't afford the GTO, and it is much cheaper...

    Rule of thumb with a two valve is if you want to go fast is boost it. I kind of want to supercharge it on stock everything and get to about 350 rwhp and be done. I need to start putting my money towards something else.

    Thats all I want anymore than that I dont want to have to worry about reliability issues, Of course depending on which kit I can have more, thats not what I'm looking for, I just want a low 12 second mustang and call it a day.
