nice car and video!!!!! what size and type of mickey thompson tires are you running,and what air pressure are you running in them? the reason i;am asking is because i just put some 28-11.50-15 et streets on mine, and haven't run them yet 🙁 i'am waiting for some cooler weather.by the way what temp were you running at? if your going to switch to a all forged bottom end you might want to check with cnc motorsports they have some good prices on eagle parts...i bought my all forged 383 from them and i'am real happy with there short block 😀 i've all reddy got a 11.50 on the motor with a comp 268 and stock vortec heads with comp bee hive springs :shock:

Sweeeeet Video! I love that car. How much does you car way now with the Ford 9" in it. Have you lightened the car at all or is it pretty much stock interior and do you have an all steel body?

No i havent weighed the car yet, only thing i did that would make it lighter is the whole ac/heater box unit is removed and no power steeringand no rear swa bar(front will be removed soon). my 11.78 pass was with out the hood though. and it is an all steel body.

The mickeys are 275 60 15 which equate to a 28-10-15. i did spin off the line quite a bit at 8lbs in the tires. As soon as i get the pictures ill show u how much they wrinkled. the car temp is right about 150 after my burnout. it runs the best there.
