    Default The fast car thread

    I put it here because boys like that stuff. I have a pro stock mustang that I run a quarter in the 7s with. With a Holly 465. No double pumpers for this gal.

    So what are your thoughts on dual lines vs reg 4br?

    I don't have any pics of it but it kinda looks like [Mod snip]. I put all my money in the motor. I'm not one of them chrome girls!

    It's downright ugly. A 79 mustang hatchback, faded and peeling blue, dirty white vynel interior. But turn that key. You gonna fall in love. You can feel it loping under you in the seat.

    Lol no. I don't don't have minutes on it. I do that prepay stuff.

    Still though, I wasn't bragging, I just wanted to get a car discussion going.

    At least give us a photo of the motor.
    I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth. (Rev. 3:8,10)

    Lotta questions DC -

    How are you getting enough air flow through a single Holley 465?

    ci's? (I assume it's a small block V-8 that's been bored and stroked over at least 30 - correct?)

    Cams?

    Headers?

    BHP at the crank?

    Have you had it dyno tested? How many horses at the rear wheels?

    Rear end gear ratio?

    Rear wheel size?

    Tranny? (The 465 has Ford automatic kickdown linkage available that's why I'm wondering about the trans...)



    Since ET's in the sevens means MPH around 170 on the low end and mid 190's up at the top, I'm curious also - What's your dial in? Always run bracketed?

    Come soon Lord Jesus - Take us Safely Home

    John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
