So first pass, i though oh nice.

Came out strong as you can see in that picture.

And then finally i dialed in a 13.31 thinking i was safe...

turns out i ran a 13.19@99 MPH the last pass and i let off the throttle at the 1000' mark because of being a head of the guy and then i was hard on the brakes about 100 foot from the finish. Im pretty sure it would have been a 12 second pass for sure had i gone all out.

not bad for a 100 shot with a little NPI motor at 5800 foot and DAs that are crazy!!

Im pleased to say the least. kinda want to put it on a dyno and make sure a/fs are good for 150 shot, but i dont have any moeny to do that. so next wedsday i may run the 150 pills for one pass. Who knows!

keep up the work :thumb:. ive got some wrenching to do soon :coolsmiley:

well you could throw a 150 pill on it and throw out the who knows question bro, but do you got another crown vic motor laying around to toss in? you can get a/f runs for like 20$ at most shops man. i'd just hate for your shit to blow up again right after you got everything running good again.

ok i guess i'll be the one to ask about the engine since everyone asked about the suspension and drivetrain lol, what else besides the nitrous kit have you done, 13.1 is no push over man, thats a great time on a NPI motor.

do you have any boltons?

:thumb:Nice Passes Hope Mine come out of the hole just as hard when im done.

Hey im about to buy my rear 15x10 Greg Welds , i was going to run a open end lugnut with some moroso or moser wheel studs. just curious to what wheel studs you have on yours and how far the stud sticks out of the lug nut.I don't want to get anything to long and have it look stupid.
