I know a guy that has a 79TA 400 4spd with 3.23's runs 14.30-14.60 at 96-98 mph with a 8.1.1 400 with 6X4's and a 268H compcam.

Good luck and keep us posted.

I don't know if that is good news,or bad ! LOL
I'm sure,over time,that it will get better ET wise. I plan on getting RA manifolds (stock logs right now),and some better tires(F70/14 Sears radials for now). I have to really baby it off the line right now,as you can imagine. My goal with the present set up was 14.0 @ 98,so I will keep plugging away at the tuning part. Plus keeping it stock appearing was always a priority during the build,so I know I sacrificed a little right there.
If it was not the original engine,trans,rear,I would probably be a little harder on it too,but I bought this car to have fun.
I really need to get a tach also,just too hard to be consistant without one,with a 4-speed.
Thanks,Drake
