    Just looked up the specs on this cam. It's got over a 120 degree LSA. I bet that it totally idles like glass and pulls crazy vacuum even with it being a smaller engine.

    Dude you guys are awesome. I've been a fan ever since the first vids of turbo rusty. You guys are downright fucking hilarious lol. Build some badass cars.

    So the turbo mustang went from a TKO transmission to an auto, and an R block? Ahhh shit, the sky is the limit now :2thumbs:

    Yep, now I just need to get it to no stumble and fall on it's Ass off the T-brake lol. Ended up foot braking a 1.75 60ft, 10.28 at 138mph, 2500 rpm off the line with no boost and 13.5psi down the track. Happy over all for it being the first time out in 2 years. I just hope I can figure out whats up with the tune, then star tto add in some powa!

    yeah i seem to get like 28 with it locked on highway drives lol
    i think we are gunna drive it down to OCMD for the fall cruise and then i can really check.
    its hard since i dont have an odometer.

    but i can top it off with like 6-8 gallons (16g tank) and drive to the track make average of 3-4 passes and then drive home and put like 6-8 in it again lol

    all the tracks are 100-120mile or more round trip if you consider that its like 15-20mpg with the passes and hooning on the way to the track of course.

    rough sloppy math
