This thing is something else to drive. If you look at the torque curve and hp curve combined with my 3600 convertor you see I always have 450 torque or 500hp at the command of the throttle.

What tires are you using?
I know its not your daily driver but have you checked your approximate miles per gallon yet?

Most of the time I run my Firestone 500's (255/70R16). At the strip I use some M/T ET's (30x13.50x15).

My guess on the mileage is 12-13 mpg, if I keep my foot out of it.

I'm waiting on some more vids, like burn-outs, track passes, drifting, in truck and under skirt vids...this is too cool of a mod to keep under wraps.
