Default My Visit To Avon Park

Having the uprated clucth assembley and lightend flywheel fitted, followed closely by the PAR/PPG gearbox with a Quaife ATB front diff, it was time to see how this package would complement the engine mods so far:-

0-60 = 5.3
0-100 = 9.8
1/4 MILE = 12.4 (125mph)

Still shaking like a leaf in a gale force wind, need to work on my launches so as to get the times down, and also loose some more weight of the car, (think i have lost enough my self)

John

cracking terminal speed and 1/4 mile there john,

0-60 seems a bit slow, but as you say, it's all down to the luanch

How is the noise in the cabin with the diff and gear box??

Certainly seems quick, just out of interest did you also have lightened pulleys

DannyBoy007,

As you say, the 0 - 60 will not set the world alight, (need lots of practice),
Ref the noise, no prob`s there, still running full interior but sounds sweet.

Wide,

Ref the pulleys, the stock lightend pulleys are not of the same % reduction over the standard ones, (in relation to the % reduction of the lightend flywheel over the standard one removed), therefore i will have to have a one of, crank pulley made to the spec i reqiure.

John
