        jesus, you're still getting just under what the 442 does for gas mileage.. and I think it's all stock still. Not bad! I haven't seen your car in person since.. last year when you were putting the new exhaust on. That thing's an absolute beast. How many miles per tire are you getting, though? :icon_smurf:

          Actually not real sure on the mileage. I went through 5 gallons friday night just cruising around a little, maybe 30 miles??? Need to clear up some tip in/acceleration issues....

              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.

              Lol Thanks I was needing some motivation to finish my car.

                  Well the plan was to be getting it tuned around this time but three bolts on the driver side mount stripped out of the block so that set me back a while. But yeah ill let you know when its done, I will be giving many rides in it lol.

                          How fast to average cars go out of the box? (No BS $250,000 cars now.)

                          What is a "full 5th pull"? Are you talking about on a dyno?

                              I agree, when I had my F-350 diesel at almost full rpm's about 200 rpm shy of rev-limiter my speedo only showed 100, gps was at 124:icon_rabbit:
