Definitly going to help me get to my goal of 13 seconds :P

Trust me ... i have heard a 4L I6 with rebuilt engine/head ... aggressive cam ... etc, etc. And that thing was an animal of a vehicle. Shame the owner didn't have the available funds to finish it off though.

Rolled over the line for a 14.01 1/4 mile .... after hitting limiter and going in LHM ... would have been well into the 13s. This was after short gears were put in the rear. Was crazy to drive on the street. It was mean.

Don't think I'll see another hard Fairmont like that again.
