JB Forum Superhero Donating Members 3,109 Member For: 21y 5d Location: Eastern Suburbs of Mexico Posted 09/02/05 08:26 AM Share Posted 09/02/05 08:26 AM I tell you what Scotty, after today I retract all my statements about manual T's, it seems that none of us can drive. When I picked my car up from Dynomotive Mark had a Phantom Manual (T5) T in that has 302rwkw and did an 11.9qtr at heathcote on the weekend!!!Both Mark and I cannot believe it, but it's genuine, the guy who owns the car is from the country, and it was in for the same problem as mine, ford had reflashed the PCM and screwed the car completely!But an 11.9 with 302rwkw shows we can mix it with the auto guys, I want to find out his secret to slashing over 1 sec from pretty much the rest of us around that kw mark.Not sure if he is a memeber here??????? G'day Jb just wondering if you saw he's time sheet because a 12.9 with 302 rwklw is a top effort let alone 11.9,Got to say I got my doubts to tell you the truth I dont think that's achievable with 302@ the wheels in a ManualIm not trying to start anything so the manual boy's take it easy its just my honest opinionCYA JEFF Yeah I know what you mean Jeff, I'll see if I can chase up some further proof.

Probably been on tractors all his life so put him in something with a syncro box and he'll think he's in heaven and drive like he's in hell!! Orrr ... it's a typo ...

Its just that everyone says that the 1/4 is the true test of power so your run of 121mph would suggest a 330 rwkw car.Please don't take this the wrong way, it what everyone says from APS, Street Tuner, Geea and so onmacka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
