Finally got to the track after doing the coyote swap. I wasn't expecting much since I haven't launched the car before, or set up the suspension and the gears are not ideal at all.

I ran twice and did better than I figure I would so I called it quits while I was ahead. Here is a complete list of mods

Coyote swap
JLT CAI
BBK LT's, o/r X
93 oct Tune
Team z front end
Strange shocks/struts
LCA
stock T45 (billet 3-4 fork)
3.73's
Strange Axles
Tru track
Removed rear seat and passenger seat
Weld slicks / skinnies

*And for anyone interested, I weighed the car as it sat exactly like listed above, including A/c PS, Cobra brakes etc, it weighed 3025lbs without me 3200 race weight

Going to try again next weekend and see if I can slide it in the 10's. That will be the last time for the car before winter and some new mods!

Wow nice work, thats saying a lot with that old t45! Go auto with a friendly stall converter and that car will be an animal.
just my 2cents.

Not going auto until I turbo it. I enjoy the manual with a NA car.

Great times! GT or F150 coyote? How is your car so light?? Seats weight what, 50lbs?

It's out of a 2012 GT... I'm not sure, I was surprised too. But like I said, I only have a tubular front end, no rear seat, passenger seat, spare tire or jack. that's it, Still has all accessories, brakes, fog lights etc. I haven't gone overboard with weight reduction because I still enjoy driving it on the street.

That's insane. What did you car run before with the Vortech?

12.0 @ 116/117... It's definitely faster now after the swap.... My car was on a very conservative tune though before with the S-Trim, it made 467 before. But it was also 200lbs+ more then too

Man the level of butt hurt is insane lol sick car man

Haha yeah it's entertaining for sure

What kind of numbers is it putting down

Honestly I have no clue, it's somewhere between 400-430 I would say based on what I have seen others dyno. Mine was street tuned so I don't have any actual numbers other than track times
