don't mind the silent chamber he's just an ass and expects every

to know everything...

you might be looking at mid-low 15's I would imagine...

Thanks man... what mods do you sugg. for mid to low 14's on all motor?

if you want to know what u can beat...well i one to always say go out there and see for yourself.....

but i think ur 1320 sould be in the 14's....but the casr potential isn't in straight line performance anyway...

so are u keepin it all-motor or going fi?? but i already know the answer to that question

Yeah silentchamber is an ass, and a post whore if I may say so myself.

But about the mid 15's.....maybe if he had some lame ass mini-me swap...LOL

I'm guessing high 14's.

How much did it cost ya?

TheSilentChamber · #13 10-10-2004, 03:26 PM

Yeah, dont mind me, I'm just an ass whore.

he wanted 3500 for it but i talked him down to 2000. runs great i need to figure a few things out though.... ever since the engine swap the speedometer doesnt work and there is no rpm gauge in the car... any ideas on what i could do? i can make the car get up and go but i dont want to rev it too high untill i get the rpm gauge so i still dont know the full potential of the car yet

Thanks guys.

the speedo cable may not be hooked up or if its a electric speedo tranny they may have never wired it up a vss thing.
