Only really pushed hard to get 10sec pass once the Car was complete inside and out, etc for the Street Fords Article.Mods list is comprehensive and as the car is now 'officially' finished I will be posting up another thread in a day or so with a complete history including mods.As far as the run is concerned, running MT Streets and using a Dominello modded 4 speed including a 3600 Stall converter. To get the right launch I have just been working on making sure that I had the heat/grip in the MT's to ensure that I could use the stall to its maximum, and for the 1.5 60' I was stalling it to 3500. For me the key points are that the car was Full street trim and I drove it, so that makes it a true 10sec street car. Since WSID didnt actually ban me for the run I might have to head out next week to see if I can maybe push the bar a little lower.RegardsM G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming not as I would imagine you have a smaller diameter convertor, but I thought I'd ask the question anyways.What kinda power / boost levels you running, assuming its standard xr6t bottom end still.Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His car was the cover car in Street Fords a few months back and also is in the DVD that came with the issues. One of your mates might have a copy of the mag and DVD.
