What will my 340 run? and what intake and carb?

Hey Steve,

i will definatly look into going with the Mcleod clutch. There back under old management now too, which means better tech help and prices. What you are saying about powershifting makes sense since regular shifting is an on/off shock on the tranny, its just kinda funny since everyone says dont powershift a t5...i want to be able to powershift it without being scared of breaking since powershifting is funner and faster:toothy10: When you talk about tire size and bogging the car, what exactly do you mean by that? ive heard about bogging down before, but not sure what that is...does it mean i have to leave at a higher rpm? what rpms does your buddy with the fairmont leave at, and what does it turn in the 1/4? or is only an 1/8th mile car? I figure my car is around 3400 pounds, and if stock 5.0 weighs that much and the t5 can handle that plus upgrades, then i guess i should be okay...thanks for the info on the g-force stuff, i hear alot of mixed opinions on it (as with anything else)...I really appreciate your help and input- i hear alot of guys telling me i will be fine, but every once in a while the bad stuff i hear really worries me and makes me wonder if the whole t5 thing was a good idea...

I think a lot of people think that powershifting means not using the clutch, and that WILL tear things up fast.

He drives the wagon 50 miles each way to the track. I don't think he's ever run it 1/4 mile, but he will be at Pinks All Out in Indy at the end of May. I guess we'll find out.

Good luck with it, just remember its not my fault if you're walking home! LOL!

Steve
