WORK...

Been busy at work lately...working real hard...doing burnouts and breaking stuff since this video was shot i replaced the stock trans with a Performance Automatic AODE/4R70W with a transbrake and full manual valvebody...it was killer for about an hour and 30 minutes until i blew a head gasket...555 lb-ft of torque is fun in a 3000 pound car.... My sweet Mustang will be on the cover of Car Craft soon...watch for it or check out www.carcraft.com

Race? 5.0 update

I know a bunch of you were wondering about my 5.0 Mustang notchback with the turbo...well after a day of dyno tuning and settling on 441HP and 555 lb-FT i think the transmission was dying inside even though it seemed fine at the end of the day. Well...i put a driveshaft loop in in, a big tranny cooler with a built in fan, and bolted the drag radials on to drive it home for the first time and about 1/4 way into my commute home i sensed the stock AOD was not doing well. overdrive was toast and it didn't like shifting in any fashion...no Irwindale for me that week. We were hoping the car would be too fast for not having a cage and be asked to leave...
So the unexpected push to ramp up the go fast program started. Performance Automatic built a killer AODE/4R70W for us and i am just waiting for the converter from Precision Industries and hope to have it fixed by next thursday to race...again, hoping it will be too fast.
Stay tuned and read CAR CRAFT MAGAZINE!
here's a video we did the after i bought the car and ran it through the lights in stock trim...goodtimes. and i should have said 10th not 8th at the very end...

New kinda drug

Huey Lewis might have been onto something...i have been playing with semi legal speed...i'll be at irwindale a week from thursday with a 500 horse turbo '87 notchback...
