                          After I get the built tranny in we'll see, should be good for 15's but I'm not too optimistic with the 2.73's in the rear end. It probibly won't be in by May 24th but I might go anyway.

                                Haven't made it out to the track yet, but im hoping for faster than a 15. If not, at least i will get good gas milage and reliability.

                                        Reliability, I'd put my 302 up against any honda. How many people boost a honda up to around 400 horsepower after the motor has 100k on it, then put another 80k on it with 0 issues? Gas mileage not so much. Once I get gears and the HO conversion finished my car will be as fast as Shawns was last year if not faster, due to the auto. 14.5's in a car that has full interior, weighs about 3800 pounds with me behind the wheel, and has about 225 hp. Fine by me. Sounds better than any honda ever built too.

                                          Reliability, I'd put my 302 up against any honda. How many people boost a honda up to around 400 horsepower after the motor has 100k on it, then put another 80k on it with 0 issues? Gas mileage not so much. Once I get gears and the HO conversion finished ***my car will be as fast as Shawns ***was last year if not faster, due to the auto. 14.5's in a car that has full interior, weighs about 3800 pounds with me behind the wheel, and has about 225 hp. Fine by me. Sounds better than any honda ever built too.

                                          Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
                                          Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
                                          Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
                                          Torque is how far you take the wall with you
