put skinnies up front(have to go back to stock brakes to do this)
longtube headers (1 3/4 stepped to 1 7/8 primairys)
change rear gears to 4.56s(currently have 4.11s)
add rear sway bar(currently have nothing)
change stall in converter to about 5000ish(currently 4200)
last but not least, if need be, spray with alittle go fast juice
all this and still no job. so im not going to be doing anything for a while.
baddest434: i blame all this on you lol. i remember seeing you at etown when i was in high school. at the time you were running 10.3s i believe. i remember drooling over your car. i remember telling my dad that thats what my car is gunna be like. so i would have to say that i can safely blame my addition to racing soley on you hahahaha. hopefully one time this season we can meet up again. so i can get some more crazy ideas. me and a buddy of my both want to run at atco. so hopefuuly we will see you there one day

sorry man i am a bad influence. lol if you turn your car into a track car with some weight reduction, open headers, different gearing you will definately be in the 10's and on a big shot probally 9's. i know that engine is stout. SHAFIROFF FTW! we should plan a get together at atco in the spring.
your car is fast but you can get alot more out of it.
