sorry to hear about your health issues, thats serious stuff. as far as that mod list and beating the v8`s, really nothing on that list is gonna get you there. every time ive gone to the track, i get paired up with the v8`s. i can come off the line side by side and hang till about 2nd gear( and its fun watching a guys face going WTF just off the line) but in the big end i get creamed. your gonna need some sort of supercharger or juice to pick up that extra 100 hp. maybe you ran up against some guys that cant drive or just spinning tires. that would net you a win maybe?
there are some freak 4.0`s out there. i know a guy in ok that has one. he could run almost a second less than mine in the 1/4 mile, both n/a. his car was tuned by roush. hes sence done heads and cams. its a fast 4.0. my over size rear tires are costing me a couple tenths, but i`m running 14.7 with them, i would just guess 14.5 with stock height tires. my car runs solid for what it is
how about some details on your trans. mine just crapped out so i`m looking at options. on the sluggish thing, fuel filter, dirty tb or bad fuel?
