My first mustang was a aod ragtop with bcam. Exhaust 3.73’s shift kit cai I was going 9.4 in the 1/8. That was with a stock stall.. it was a complete dog off the line... but on a roll it was a monster for what it was everyone I use to race with in Mexico use to claim I was using nitrous all the Honda boys back in the 2005’s because they would get me off the line then when I hit 2nd it was a sling shot Past them.. so I was always popping my hood all the time and would tell them if you can find nitrious lines period you can keep the car man I had some pissed off honda boys on my ass.... but it was just a beast I was goin 150 in overdrive at around 4800 rpm I believe til this day it would go 165-175...

Don't forget to adjust the TV cable to hold the shift longer and shift where you want it to shift

[@hotrodray6802]

Adding about 4 mph to the normal driving shift points ups the pressure and seems to make them last better. Also I feel that a bottle or two of Lucas trans increases the viscosity enough to really help. Slippery seems to help too. I like it. 😎

[@easycomeeasygo8901]

I dont know any pro racers so i had to hear it on cruise night from someone 😁. Thanks for sharing though. I had a bone stock 225hp 5.0 with stock tube header but 2.5 from header back and the all important cai. Never dragged it. But with 3.08s from a dig id get a good launch and surprise my friends who were all modified. I did the 1, d, 1 shuffle on a junk yard aod for 3 yrs on the daily. Prob not good for it. But i couldnt resisted the 1 to 2 tire chirp at 6000 rpm. Then i went t56 viper spec. Then the gang all went boosted. 345whp to 480whp. By that time i was saving for my build for yrs. My car went down for 1.5 yrs. From 225hp i came out swinging with 740 still sbf 302. But by then we rarely cruised and alot of the guys had sold their rides. We had one more decent cruise. The guy with 480whp 2V said his car was breaking up 🙄 so nothing there. The 409whp guy did 2 runs with me. I turned it as low as it went about 411whp. And it was a good race. With me pulling away slowly. My t56 3.08 to his 4.10 t5. And now i cruise alone, such is life i guess. Anyway. In my opinion heads wake these motors up the most. The 409whp guy was low 300whp NA after Edelbrock heads, f cam, tb, typhoon intake, and cai and exhaust, of course tune. Havent followed this car of yours, but 6.2 to 60 is stock lx 5.0 t5 time. So you doing it with a aod gt isnt to bad i guess if your stock 225hp. U got gt40 swap you can do? I never did it I was always close to pulling the trigger to do it. Would love to see real world gains.
