    13.93 @ 99.6 mph. i also need a better converter.This TCI thing is crap. Flashes to 2400 thats no were near were i need to be.It results in 2.12 60's (Bogging)The trans is also messed up AGAIN last year i had it in and out 4 times,so i baught another trans had it rebuilt now after 2 months of street driving its flaring and wont go into 3rd when cold and all kinds of stuff.So intsted of heads and cam this winter its gona be a P.A. performance roller C-4.That will cure it for sure.Oh and a nicer converter.Just that should put me in the low 13s.I gotta take advantige of the tires.It will hook.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    what kind of rear gear are you running? what heads, cam and carb? just wondering.

    if for some reason if you ever buy a converter i'd go with a contental converter! best damn converters i've seen and used! seen... A1, GERs and TCI all fall apart and not last long. just stating what i've seen.

    There is a place in Nashville that will rebuild your converter to your specs.
    I had them do mine and made it a 4500 stahl and I love it>
    It was around $235 plus shipping.

    Its a 4:11 gear,not sure what the cam specs are its a winsor cam (firing order) i havent got around to checking the lift with a dial indicator @ the rocker.The carb is a 750 Holley Dual feed.I know i need more gear with the 28 in. tires crossing traps @ 5300 rpm. Way off.But it all takes time i got that but i lack the $$$.Slow and steady.
