Someone REALLY knew how to drive...
Mid 13s with such a relatively lite list of mods is pretty admirable.

That is a really good price for the car, if it could be had for the opening bid price.

T3
Ported Head
Custom Cam
Ported Intake & Exhaust Manifolds
3" Exhaust with Cutout
.030 over

Besides having a bunch of new stock stuff, it's not a lot of mods for the ET they got.

NOT BAD.

I saw that mod list and thought here is a person that knows how to get a 2.3 to run. Every TC has this potential but few get them to do it. I always said my car ran like shit for what it had done. Hopefully we can fix that this year.

mods: SDS Digital Fuel Injection, ported & polished big valve head(1.89/1.59), Esslinger roller cam #2277, Esslinger adj. cam pulley, custom upper and ported lower intakes, 60-1 stage III .63 turbo, powerstroke intercooler, 60mm throttle body, 75pph injectors, Walboro 255HP pump, Kirban adj. fuel reg., ATR header, 3" exhaust with Dynomax Ultraflow muffler, MSD 6al, MSD coil, MSD Launch Control, MSD 8.5mm wires, K&N filter, Spec stage III clutch, Greddy Profec B boost controller, Weld Draglites with M/T ET Street 26x11.5/15

I have to agree with you guys on the list of mods being "marginal", and the ET being admirable. Makes me feel that perhaps there was a little too much green spent on mine. I have never taken it to the track, but when I do, I am sure that I will have his setup on my mind.

um, that actually seems like alot of mods to me. considering there has been 87-88 birds running 13's hear and there in maryland for over 10+ years. i'm that that keen on a .48 housing though. though, it is a nice car still.

86 turbo coupe (14.9), 86 SVO, 90 mustang GT, 69 mustang coupe
