  1. shift points (gears)

    Do you guys think that with this increased trap speed I have more room on the table for a better ET once I get the Dyno tune updated with regards to gear change?
  2. shift points (gears)

    Hey all. I finally did the change from 3.55 gears to 4.09 gears in my auto. Here's my results. I picked up a little in the 60 foot, 1/8ET and 1/4ET. Less than I had hoped but I'll take it. Here's what threw me. I picked up 2-3mph in my trap speed (114-115). This threw me because I thought...

    Can I run a 28" tire in rear and a 27" tire in front without having any kind of cpu issues/blips? J.D
  4. Circle D converter

    Oh, did I read this completely wrong Wildhorse. My peak torque is probably 4500
  5. Circle D converter

    Hello all. I read something today about converters that completely thru me for a loop. If I remember correctly, it said that you want to choose a stall speed that is lower than your cruise rpm. I don't understand what this means. Most people I would think, have a 70mph cruise rpm between...

  7. shift points (gears)

    I'm not hoping for night and day difference. I was hoping for maybe 0.2-0.3 tenths in the 1/4 mile with maybe a tenth in the 60'. I watched a couple videos from american muscle where they went with 4.10 gears on a 2014 gt auto and gained 0.3 tenths in the zero to 60. Roughly same hp/tq, same...
  8. shift points (gears)

    Changing gears will do nothing for me with regards to "Bracket" racing. I'm simply looking for a little quicker times from the 60' to the E.T. I'm also looking for a little more seat of the pants fun.
  9. shift points (gears)

    I'm changing from 3.55 gears in my 16 auto gt to 4.09 gears. I bracket race the car at the dragstrip. It has basic bolt ons and a dyno tune with the shift points around 7200rpm and rev limiter at 7800 rpm. I want to put off until the spring getting the dyno tune updated for the gearing change...
  10. Pics of Deep Dish

    Can I see pics of Deep Dish wheels in 10 spoke/Y spoke etc...that fit in 18-20" Thanks!
  11. 20X10 wheels upfront

    I ordered 5mm Eibach spacers for the front. Do you guys think that I need to order the same spacers for the back so that the tires/rims match front to back? J.D
  12. 20X10 wheels upfront

    Hey Guys. Thanks for the quick replies. I plan on putting the smallest tires up front that I can. I do a little bracket racing at the local drag strip. I just absolutely loved these wheels because of the deep dish aspect. I got tired of my previous ones. So even with smaller tires up front...
  13. 20X10 wheels upfront

    Hello all. I want to get the FR500 deep dish wheels in 20x10/+43 offset/7.19 B.S on all 4 corners. I know they're fine on rear, will they be o.k up front. 2016 Mustang GT Thanks!!!!!
  14. Nitto NT555RII drag radials tire pressure

    Hey all. What tire psi are you running on a 15-17 gt auto with basic bolt ons and suspension upgrades with 3.55 gears with the Nitto NT555rII drag radials? I'm running the 305/45/17 on Racestar Wheels. I've always ran mid to upper 20s in psi on this car and a 2010 camaro with a very similar...
  15. 285/40/18 tires on a 9 inch rim?

    Hey guys, thanks for the replies. I bracket race on the weekends. I normally run a 275/40/18 on my 9 inch rim. All I was looking for was a little more tire height while still be safe because I'm gonna upgrade to lower gears. Looks like this might solve the problem. J.D
  16. 285/40/18 tires on a 9 inch rim?

    Hey all, has anyone put 285/40/18 tires on a 18x9" rim? I think the recommended max is 275/40/18 but was wondering if anyone has done this? J.D
  17. ford racing 4.09 gears at the strip

    Hey all. I edited my original post to include more details. Thanks for the replies and thanks for the private conversations I was in. I still am looking for some more input from fellow drag racers. If I go to 3.91/4.10 gears, I'm confident I won't spin on take off and I'm well within staying...
  18. ford racing 4.09 gears at the strip

    Cory, I do have upgraded suspension components. I get no wheel hop on 3.55s. I'm running an automatic compared to a stick with a high rpm clutch drop, but I only leave off idle, I don't even footbrake it up in rpms at all. I do this to have consistent launch rpms every time. I also run a...
  19. ford racing 4.09 gears at the strip

    LX Mike. My rev limiter is set a tad higher I believe with the dyno tune I obtained. What do you mean when you say it'll throw off your launch?
  20. ford racing 4.09 gears at the strip

    Cory S, I'm a little confused at your post. I'm currently running 3.55 gears. I leave off idle. I'm running 26" nittos and trap 112mph.
