Hey, was suggested I join up by martin0660... I got me an 85GT Mustang, that i've swapped a faster motor into... it is a 2.3T. Hoping for low 11's on mostly stock(ish) parts.
the car is a practically mint 85 GT T-Top, with an 8pt roll bar, welded frame connectors, 2.3T 5spd, the list goes on... should be fun!
THe best part now, is all the little things i need to finish putting it back together... it is starting to cost me a small fortune.

Welcome Steve!
We don't have enough 2.3 cars around, so I'm importing them from other countries :D
anyone can go "fast" in a V8... it takes skill to do it in a 4banger.
Best feeling in the world, is when you pass a guy who's got a tonne of money in his motor, and you've only just upped your boost.
My old tbrid was basically stock, and i went 13.6 @ 99.8... which was also my first time ever running at the track.
the stanger should be much faster :)
Welcome to the site Steve. Sounds like a cool project, post up some pictures!

this was the first RUNNING of the car, i've since replace the TB and the starter, and it runs a LOT better... the starter gear wasn't disengaging...
Welcome to SCS
Welcome!
However, for future reference, letting Bob Myers convince you to do anything is frowned upon on this site.
oh, Bob only suggested me to sign up... my car is my own doing (and a few other friends too).
Eventually, when i get some more time, I am going to post my build on my website... posting it to 20 different forums is a pain in the buttocks.
Quoted for truth ... You could expand that beyond this site to include most things in lifeHowever, for future reference, letting Bob Myers convince you to do anything is frowned upon on this site.

as for boost... where i'm going... there wont be any need for a wastegate...
with the 3" FMIC and stuff, and a .63 T3, i am guessing it will max out in the low 20psi range. hoping for low 11's... we'll see how it goes in a few months if i can get it finished :)
