thanks, but g is as low as i can go since the car is a notch. maybe i'm wrong but it looks like the car falls naturally into f/fia.

12.20 so far... no tuning to speak of... just basically got the thing to run. No adjustments to the clutch, shocks, or anything. The next outing will be at the World Ford Challenge at Indy on May 17-20. We will see what we can do...

Where are you located?

Did you run that with a factory stock long block?

Stock 5.0 I have a 1989 notch it fits in h/fia and has run 1.12 under the index. I'm a chevy racer that just put this car together 3 years ago because it had belonged to a friend that had tried it as an 85 carburated 5 speed car and gave up on it. The car has no tricks just good basics, and good tuning. you can see the car on auto imgagery under Lee Valentine and can reach me at 203 775 6830 between 7&9 pm EST almost any night and I'll tell you anythihg you want to know.

Lee is exactly right. I also have a notch and have run F -G-H it depends if you run it as a 88 or 89. you don't have to go crazy with these cars and they will run. drop me an email if I can help in anyway.
