yea... but its slow...

with a 2.3 60' i managed a 14.6@96... so the mph is there.. i just need to get out of the hole okay and i'll see 13's. I also need to get a 3000+ stall... before i blew the tranny i was running 13.9s-14.0 all day on a 3200 stall... but after the transmission went the converter was gone as well and i ended up putting this little pitiful converter in.

dyno numbers:
265/252 thats w/o the latest of gutted cats and AS&M lt's. So maybe about 20rwhp more and maybe we can even up those tq numbers. we'll see
