My Ford powered Z is in the 12's


74_5.0L_Z

Recommended Posts

I took the car the Orlando Speed World last night to see how it runs with the new parts (Heads, Intake, Cam). The first pass I spun hard off the line, backed off the gas, got back into it and ran a 12.97 @ 110.04. Second run, I again spun (not as bad) and ran a 12.82 @ 110.06.

 

Not bad considering the car is set-up for autocross and not the quarter mile.

 

My previous best was a 13.219 @ 103.7 mph with the stock 5.0L engine.

 

With a little traction that speed should put me around 12.5.

 

I weighed the car while there. 2600 total minus me. 1280 on the front tires, 1320 on the rear. That's better than 50% on the rear without me in it. icon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gif
