Author Topic: New Best ET twisted54 ¯ Member # 1981 posted                                 I put in a 4200 stall a couple weeks back and was able to lower my 60' by 3/10ths. I'm still having a bad high rpm ignition miss that is really holding me back. I had a handful of 12.6s and the best run went like this: 1.76 60' 12.46 @ 109.8 If I could just get this misfire fixed and shift at around 6200 vs 5800, I think I could get to the low 12s... Maybe next time.

I broke early in the day so I didn't stick around to see what everybody ran. The car was making good power, but I bent/broke a pushrod on the #1 intake. Still got me home without issues. (good 'ol 5litre!) I pulled out the pushrod in 2 pieces. Sucks that they weren't letting anybody with 'cheater' style tires (DR's & ET Streets) run in the right lane. -------------------- www.advancedenginedevelopment.com SCT dealer Dynotuning (916)715-7569 Posts: 4266 | From: Fair Oaks, CA | Registered: Nov 2000  |  : twisted54 ¯ Member # 1981 posted                                 Nice meeting you too Rob... I was wondering why you left Shaun. I saw you there and the noticed you leaving just a little while later. Well hopefully you can get it fixed and back up and running soon. My wife saw your run and she was telling me about how fast you went. I finally think I have her hooked on going to the track... -------------------- 2013 Black on Black 5.0 with Boost N Things - CORN FED 🌽 Posts: 3422 | From: ebay | Registered: Oct 2002  |  : 93PONY Mr. Valve Events Member # 60 posted                           The car seemed to be running strong. On the first run it spun in 1st & 2nd so I backed out of it twice & still managed 125mph. Oh well. I'll have the new pushrods by Tuesday & it'll be running again by the weekend. No permanent damage done. -------------------- www.advancedenginedevelopment.com SCT dealer Dynotuning (916)715-7569 Posts: 4266 | From: Fair Oaks, CA | Registered: Nov 2000  |  : F8LPONY NORCAL-LS1 Member # 11 posted                              Congrats!!!

Walnut Creek Transmission cracked open the 3000 stall and re stalled it for me. It really kicks in when you hit around 4200 rpms. -------------------- 2013 Black on Black 5.0 with Boost N Things - CORN FED 🌽 Posts: 3422 | From: ebay | Registered: Oct 2002  |  : mustanggt5091 All I need is.....

I'm running 26x10.50-15 et streets and 4.10s. I'm thinking about putting a NX 150 shot on and seeing what will happen...but not until I get the misfire solved. -------------------- 2013 Black on Black 5.0 with Boost N Things - CORN FED 🌽 Posts: 3422 | From: ebay | Registered: Oct 2002  |  : Don CAFords OG Member # 938 posted                              Way to go. Start low on the NX kit. I think you will come to find out that you won't need a 150.

I'll probably try to get it into the 11s N/A first and then think about the NX Kit. -------------------- 2013 Black on Black 5.0 with Boost N Things - CORN FED 🌽 Posts: 3422 | From: ebay | Registered: Oct 2002  |  : 2005GTskip ¯ Member # 4885 posted                              nice times i saw your car at sac on sat it launched hard i need to get me some of thoes tires u had my car shuld be way faster than a 13.00. -------------------- 2005 Gt Posts: 294 | From: Discovery bay,California | Registered: Sep 2004  |  : Yellow94GT Mr. 60 FT Member # 431 posted                                 Congrads on the new best -------------------- AED 1994 GT Bucket that will likely never run 1999 SLOLEEN Twin Turbo Coyote 2008 F250 580 RWHP 1129 RWTQ Posts: 5990 | From: Cameron Park, Ca | Registered: Sep 2001  |  : twisted54 ¯ Member # 1981 posted                                 Thanks Drew...
