hows the mustang coming?
I honestly haven’t touched it. I keep my garbage can in the engine bay and when i throw shit out i open the hood. Everyone gets a kick out of that…
I’ve been trying to fix all the little things on the T/A that are pissing me off. Next project is to make a proper exhaust for it.
Lol that is funny as hell!
Got some new drag wheels courtesy of PsychoPJV
Also now in the market for a 4L80 so if anyone knows of a quality core, please let me know.
Looks fucking angry man…woah
You ever run it at the track yet? or do you still causing it to rain every time you drive there?
I went this past friday.
I ran a 11.7 @ 137mph with a 2.4 60’ on 11psi
1st gear bogged out pretty bad, didn’t really hit full boost until prob the 100’ mark. My gearing with these tires causes me to go through the traps at 5500 rpm in 3rd gear lol. Then it started to lightening and thunder as per usual. So just as i suspected a waste of a trip. Im throwing in the towel and going automatic. F this lol.
You have a mustang to go auto in…
This car is getting to the point where i have to make a decision to dump a ton of money into viper spec’ing this T56 and getting a $1000 clutch or going with an auto which will allow me to go and enjoy the track. At this point and with this kind of power even on low boost it makes no sense for me to dump more money into a manual.
Put the manual in the mustang it would be lot of fun
Meh. I know its a drag car and it will be tons faster, but auto is weak.
Why?
very weak
I agree. Manual Transmission cars are just cooler to me. I feel like an auto would take away some of the fun on the street. Although it would be easier and faster at the strip.
I have yet to see someone with a 800-900hp car complaining about auto :lol:
It’s always people with slow cars claiming it will be “less cool” however at those higher HP levels clutches are huge money, hooking up on the street or the track is hard, you will keep breaking T56s until you switch to something that sucks on the street, your going to need a shit load of tire to hook a T56 on the street.
this looks very boring/lame/not rad
having driven this car on the street i can say it was just as not cool there :wiggle:
meh
boring
How many people complaining of autos being boring have been faster than 12’s in the quarter? LOL. Also, do you know what a manual valve body is?
Manual in the street ride - auto for the track. Nobody wants to go to war with a bolt action over a machine gun, heh.
Slammin gears is fun. But, how often are you going to be going to the track ? Or are you looking to run a certain time and lose interest ?
Obv a manual is more upkeep no matter what whether if you’re going fast or running 20s in the 1/8th
