And the mustang can simulate a 1/4 mile run that is extremely accurate . I guess I will just bring it to the track next year. as of right now my tuner told me I am behind the wheel of a solid 11 sec car, The HP Numbers are not that high but they were surprised about the torque numbers, Started making good numbers at 2500 RPMs, with the new 3600 stall torque converter torque was right at 350 FT Pounds at 2500 RPMs and just kept climbing from there. it does have a big cam . Over 600 lift., for a A/4 car this sucker just breaks the tires loose big time in all 4 gears. this is the web site of the shop I started using about one month ago

Sorry but the horsepower doesn't make it an 11 second car. The driver does. If that's the case my car which was 501.45/480.65 at the wheels must have been an 11 second car or maybe even a high 10 second car. If it was, it wasn't with me behind the wheel.
Once I get it back together with the smaller blower pulley, blower cam and a new tune, I guess I'll have a low 10 or high 9 second car if I hit my projected 550/550 to the wheels huh?
