Project Better ET

So far I'm happy with mid 12's but looking for more.


Just ordered my 3600 stall converter, next week a TA and relocation setup.

Get that car to 60' and it will go plenty fast.

if you get the car working properly it can run low 12s with that 110mph trap.

You could run an 11 @ 110. The cars gotta 60' very well tho. Low 1.5x's

My best 60' so far was a 1.77 on a nitto 555r with a small converter and 3:42 gears. That is with full weight plus my subs/amp. Next time I go, I'll remove what I can.


Think I'll need a better transmission cooler?
I'm using this one( http://www.jegs.com/i/Derale/259/131...arentProductId ) and the stock one as of now

I have never seen it get about 180 on the gauge, even in 90* stop and go.

The B&M 70274 is always a good choice.

If your really worried about it

B&M 70274 + a Proform 67010

I'll probably see how mine does first, if it gets any hotter then I feel comfortable with I'll get a better cooler and puller fan for it.

What gear ratio would be best for my setup?

3.73, 3.90, or other?

What size tire and how much RPM?

Right now it's a 245,50 16 nitto 555r so thats 25.67 or so.

Going through the line was right about 5,000 rpm

What brand does everyone line? I have a Richmond in there now with no complaints.

I have motive gears bought from jgr for cheap on ebay

[jderry]

How cheap is cheap? I found 3.90s for 185 and 3.73 for 154
