Good pick going with the ford 9 that should hold up to all the abuse you can put on her. I might have missed it in the last 21 pages but are you keeping the T56 and what are you doing to beef her up.

I cant wait to see that thing run man. You let me know when and where because if its in NC im going to be there to see it.

What are you doing for track tires and rims.

Where do you plan on going to school at down in NC. As i am sure you know the rock is one of the best tracks on the east coast. You also have the Fayettvile track that is cheap and not bad for test and tunes since it is a lot smaller. I have this set of prostars sitting with a set of MT slicks if you need a set.

Your suspension set up should be good for 9 second passes. And thats one hell of a rear end that should hold up to just about any thing. My worry would be in the T56 and running a 200 shot off the line on slicks. Its going to be very hard on 2nd gear.

im workin on gettin trans parts now. and compression is 11.6.1. if i said 3.90 in there i messed up there 3.70 gears and im using them because with the 27" tire from wat the calculator said they will be almost perfect i hav a set of 4.30s that came with the rear but id run out of gear with them. the n2o will be sprayed through a single nozzle till i upgrade to a DP and i may be piecing together a dedicated. im goin to get a micro edge controller so if i need to i can put on a delay and wat not.

Run out of gears on a six speed?
What kind of RPM do you plan on turning?
What size shot?
Do you plan on spraying the car for the full pass (off the line)?

in the 6th speed 5th and 6th r overdrive. so it kinda just falls off if you have to end the run in 5th. so you gotta calculate it to be at the top rpm in 4th by the finish line. cam should peak around 6600-6800 200 shot and yes i plan to spray gears 1-4
