Default Re: Update E-F/SA Bird Build...

Mark, it seemed to pull all the way through the lights...being 11.59/115, the mph was good , for the ET, and at only 5800-5900. I figured the valvesprings would give me the ability to shift 1-2 at 6k, instead of 5800, if engine likes it, and also 2-3 shift as well, and would let engine pull to 6500 quickly. THe springs i had on it, for the 1st outing, were about 135 or so on the seat, and around 300 open, and they were really for a solid cam , that we used to run( .588 lift ). Im adding 80# to the car, to make 'F' weight...may not need all 80#, but i know im needing around 60#. Figuring on scale inaccuracy... The weather is supposed to be fair, this Wednesday...so we will see what it does. The converter flashes to 4800 in high gear, and i would imagine if im shifting much less than 6k, im not keeping it locked up...
