ET's

alabamastanger · May 30th, 2007, 03:09 PM

Could somebody tell me what's wrong?

I have been to the strip twice and the fastest that I ran was a 16.0 @ 96 MPH in the 1/4. My engine is mostly stock, but was rebuilt as a 306. I have a cold air intake, electric fan, underdrive pulleys, and BBK headers. Should my car be going faster than this?

Also I just put on a Performer Typhoon intake, how much will this increase my ETs?

Yes your car should be faster than that. when my AOD was stock it went 15.2 all day.

It is weird because your MPH is faster than mine..I had a 92 or 93 (cant remember) mph at 15.2...

Are you spinning? Aod or 5 speed?

JBIGBOOTSY · May 30th, 2007, 06:10 PM

post all your times 60', 330', 1/8... and the mph too. 96 mph should be in the low to mid 14s, usually.

alabamastanger · May 30th, 2007, 06:19 PM

I threw my timeslips in the trash, but if I remember correctly...
60' - 2.1 or 2.2
330' - ?
1/8 - 10.0~10.5
MPH- 91~95

i got a 14.7 at 93 miles per hour with a 60 at 2.23 and an 1/8 of 9.5....you cant really get an accurate gauge on the time just by mph...some car get to their top speed faster but they come out of the hole a lot slower and some are the other way around...we do need to know if its spinning and if its aod or 5 speed, what kind of tires.....

JBIGBOOTSY · May 30th, 2007, 06:25 PM

60's not that bad, your 1/8th time is really bad and your 1/8th mph has to be wrong cause 91-95 in the 1/8th is like in the low 12 high 11 range. If your running a 2.1 60' and a 10 1/8th I'd say it's somewhere in between there that your having a problem.

alabamastanger · May 30th, 2007, 06:28 PM

It's a 5 speed with street radials. It does spin out of the hole, but not excessively. Would some 3.73 or 4.10 gears help me out. As far as I know, the gears are still stock.

usmcsawgunner · May 30th, 2007, 06:30 PM

the higher gear (numerically) with the lack of traction you have now wouldnt help much unless you can train your foot to ease into the gas.....thats my biggest problem!!

Tony_90fox · May 30th, 2007, 06:55 PM

tires, gears, and the driving mod are the best mods EVER!!!

JBIGBOOTSY · May 30th, 2007, 08:29 PM

even with no traction 3.73s, or 4.10s will help out alot. Your short times will stay the same, but you'll see great improvement at the end of the track.

tording92lxnotch · May 31st, 2007, 03:38 PM

You sure you were cutting 2.1 and 2.2 60's?? Based on your MPH and your time I would say your just spinning badly out of the hole and cutting 2.5 - 2.7 60' times. A good ET in the 1320 is all in the first 60' of the race. A bad 60' with equal a bad ET everytime. Guaranteed.

ih8chevy · May 31st, 2007, 07:45 PM

somone probably said it, but ur probably spinning, 96 mph is a high 13 low 14 car. good luck get some sticky ass tires

ryans88gt · May 31st, 2007, 11:26 PM

Is a 2.2 60' time good???

By a set of ET streets and you should be instantly in the 1.8 60' times

1.8 60ft with a almost stock car.. With no suspension mods.. Maybe but I doubt it..

ryans88gt · June 1st, 2007, 10:51 AM

Maybe you should buy a pair of ET streets too.

My friend Brandon has the most stock 87 GT I ever seen and he consistently pulls 1.7 60' times buy dumping the clutch at 4500 rpms. The only upgrade he has is 3:55 gears and exhaust.

I've seen at least 4-5 other mostly stock foxes pull consistent 1.8 60' times. You don't need suspension mods with 225 hp, you just need sticky tires.

I pulled a 2.2 60' time by rolling out at idle...lol

Yeah that is a little weird on the mph I ran 14.9 @ 90mph
