  1. I have the stock blower pulley if you still need it.
  2. That 300C rolls out too. I'm impressed with both of those cars. I didn't know that he took the belt off. Might be worth around 5-10 wheel without running the accesories.
  3. Just ask the guy in the gull wing Civic about her driving. He was like a fly on shit everytime she got out of the car after a run. Rather funny to watch from 100 ft away. Just think if she would heated the drag radials and slipped the clutch out. Very nice runs for the first time ever down a track.
  4. Car runs well, but I'm still trying to figure out why he felt the need to try the old ricer fly by on us, three mustangs, when he was going to the gas station and we pulled into Wendy's. I was hoping he would drop in and see what the deal was. I wonder what it would run with the full size wheels on radials. His 115.45 with a better effective gear ratio with the smaller rim/tire combo wasn't going to outrun any of the cars that were pulling into Wendy's, but I guess it still runs well for what it is. We liked the car from opening day at Kilkare this year, but the old I'm going to hammer the gas past you guys in a 35 zone is a little stupid and won't get anything done on a busy street. Still like the car and it definitely runs very well.
  5. I think he has ported LS6 heads and a .600 lift cam. It has gone quicker at Trails.
  6. Best of 12.21. Traction was not to be had on radials and no track prep. We got there around 11:35 and they didn't bother to prep the track. The 12.21 pass was made when I followed a couple of slick cars down. Wheel hop is a whole lot of fun. Especially when you know that it wouldn't have been as bad if they would have made an effort to prep the track. I guess I could have just borrowed some tires and not had that problem, but I wanted to try and get the 11.9x pass on radials. I guess we'll see what happens on Thursday.
  7. All I have to say is that I really hate stupid kids driving around in the staging lanes like they are making their pass down the track. I also thought that most people who are in to racing at all would know what an 03 Cobra is by now. I don't know how many of these stupid little fucks would walk up to my car when the hood was up and say "That is why it ran like it did." No shit, they come from the factory with the blower. Welcome to 6 fucking years ago. I guess the Ford and SVT logos on the blower didn't explain that enough to them. I feel a little bit better now.
  8. Are you serious. It took me 45 minutes to read that page. Give me some credit.
  9. I just don't spend my entire life outside of work on a website I also don't use the search feature.
  10. Get those pics up and work on the launch. The air was almost perfect this past weekend. I'm just mad I wasn't able to get out and make some passes. My luck says it will rain on Saturday and I won't be able to hit Kilkare.
  11. It should shift well once you get it done. Once they start to act funny, it's all downhill from there. I'm just surprised that it hasn't taken it's own life under boost. When mine went it was in 3rd gear at about 3800, 1/4 throttle. I did beat on it for awhile before that, but my car wasn't making near the power your car is. Do you have any ideas on heads, cam, and intake yet? So many to choose from.
  12. A white C6 Zo6? Sounds like we need some pictures. I don't think I've ever seen a white one. How much seat time to you have in this car? Looks like you've had some with the 11.70 pass, but there is definitely room for improvement. Keep hitting the track and get yourself a low 11 pass. Just takes some time behind the wheel.
  13. I think you need to take the GM blinders off for a minute and do some research as far as the 5.0 crowd is concerned. This isn't about the LSX cars. They are a much better platform than the LTX cars and that is the first really accurate statement in this thread so far. Yes, LTX cars can be made fast. The fact that it is easier and much cheaper to make power in a fox body is the issue here. If you think that the only way that a fox body is worth anything is with someone's turbo kit, then you should stop posting before you make yourself look any more ignorant of the mustang aftermarket.
  14. It isn't very expensive or hard to make a fox body fast. Much easier to work on as well. The motor isn't under the windshield on a fox either. I guess when you own one slow ass fox body you know about all of them. Ask around and get back with me when you have more than one car from each side to compare.
  15. Either he got the freak 3650, or he doesn't beat on it as hard as some. One of my friends broke 3 3650's and another friend broke atleast two. They don't hold up to well to powershifting.
  16. They also make a 10 spline 500, one of the guys I know runs it.
  17. They make a 10 spline TKO now, called the TKO 500, but I would just go right for the TKO 600. The 600 has the 26 spline input shaft and I've seen enough 10 spline shafts decide to bend or break, so 26 is the way to go.
  18. Good point, since it's so hard and expensive to make a fox body mustang run well .
  19. Stay away from it. Those are supposed to be nice and flat. Damage in that area could have been caused by a few things, but I wouldn't be excited about the car after seeing that. The owner also forgot the door molding on the passenger side.
  20. I am the only one that actually looked at the first picture? Everyone go back and take a look at the cowl vent and tell me what is wrong with that picture. Looks like it has had some issues.
  21. I agree with all of the above statements. The T-5 is a piece of shit. The torque rating of these transmissions isn't enough to cover the torque of a stock car with extra timing put in. Before you hose the tranny, take it out, sell it, replace the throw out bearing, put a TKO in the car, and beat the hell out of it. That is all.
