Car on the road!!!!

[SupraMan1784]

5500rpm on a stock clutch...u can launch at that speed a couple times, but be wary its still stock so it might start slipping at the end of the night depending on teh amount of runs u do, as for shift points, im not sure about stock anymore since my ecu has been reflashed so its different, i have a higher redline and a larger powerband, but basically i try and shift towards the end of the powerband, somewhere near redline, if its your first time, i suggest short shifting the first couple rounds before you actually try and pinpointing the shifts...trust me a misshift is badd, for short shifters try b&m not because thats wut i have but its pretty reliable and well made, and there is less effort when going from gear to gear, look at ractive as well as twm...or is tmw...dont remember, for your last question on heat wrap, i use stuff from designengineering.com, i use their exhaust wraps on my headers, i dont really use it for the ic...doubt it would make a difference but take look at let me know

i would burp your cooling system and ensure that all is up to spec... last thing you wanna do is fix a hg and be a little low on water or a little irregularity and go racing and have it go ping!

park car on hill or jack up so radiator is at highest point
pull radiator cap (make sure car is very cool)
get bottles of water
start car
turn heater to hot and switch on to full
as it warms up and thermostat opens you should start seeing a few bubbles
as it is warming top up the radiator till bubbles are down to a minimum or none at all
when you think system is purged, cap the radiator, turn car off... let it down

see if you can still hear that odd bubble

there is a short shifter for sale in the for sale section i believe
also can be found on ebay

good luck at the drags
