I want to do rear stall tires sub frame connectors then take the motor out and stroke it and go through it completely from head to toe making sure its dead on all by summer. Then ill be pleased with the car and work towards looks.

that sounds sweet but as mike said, rear suspension parts help out alot. i would probably get adjustable everything to make sure you can fine tune it. that and weight reduction, which i think you have already done

You have an ok trap speed, what was your 60ft time? Did you shift the car yourself or just leave it in D and let it go?
Work on getting the car to hook first and worry about power later.

I would get some LCA relocation brackets welded onto that rear before you get it in the car, then either pickup a set of aftermarket LCAs or get your stockers boxed. That will help quite a bit for a relatively small cash outlay.

You're suppose to weld them in with the rear installed and do one side at a time. That way you ensure they are welded in the correct location.

Yea im not uber happy about a mid 13 second time slip but considering my setup it is a little better than expected. With the right stall rear and like justin said lcas I should have some impressive times.

Do you have 2.73's??! Also what headers are you running? Are they hooker long tubes?
I can get you a pretty good deal on UMI products if your willing to buy into a GP through thirdgen...

JSPerformance is a UMI dealer, no need to go throw the crowd on TGO when you can deal directly with an NJFBOA sponsor

Yea my cars GUTTED dude I mean all thats in it is the driver seat,center console with radio,dash. Most wiring has been cut out too not to mention no cruise control no a/c-heat components at all its a hardtop and I have a fiberglass hood.
Btw My timing is way off, the car is running rich, it stumbles off idle(still trying to fix that), I was on bald tires.
Way fast...you have a HUGE STALL (might not be the right combo depending on your motor setup and def not right for such a small rear)(stalls dont work like " the bigger the number the faster it is bro") in that th350 which is a better track trans than mine but that rear is going to kill your times. Plus you have to dial that motor in brotha that thing needs alot of cleaning up.
