its amazing what suspension can do for someone with a horsepower disadvantage

haha my best 60ft ever and i still couldn't beat my best time.(et ended up being 13.33 best pass in richmond though) i guess the heat got to me cuz there is a big dif on ET between 65-70 degrees and 90-95 degrees.

the higher you are, the more of a disadvantage. 600ft or so isnt too bad, you just need to work on it a little bit. there are elevation calculators on the web to help with figuring times out.

I thought the 4.6 2v should run 14.3 below stock?

SWEET2KSTANG · June 27th, 2008, 11:56 PM

14.3 is an average time for a completely stock 99-04 mustang gt.

its called setting the pinion angle... when you adjust the uppers, you are tilting the rear chunk up or down, changing the angle of where the driveshaft meets the chunk. you will need an angle finder.... and will subtract the angle of the driveshaft from the angle of the chunk...........i think, google it and double check... may have gotten it backwards, either way you get the idea
