EA/EBIs are the way to go. |

| I have an EB II Fairmont which has just recieved AU XR6 engine that hasnt been tested in anger yet but with previous EF XR6 engine managed a 14.56 at 94 mph nearly two years ago. Both engines have remained untouched and that time was achieved with the original 3.27 ratio open wheeler diff, 5 speed manual and slightly modified exhaust that retained factory manifold. She recorded 127 Kw at the wheels. Now has extractors and EL XR6 3.45 LSD. |

14.56 from 127rkwk is a mighty effort.
You must have got a perfect reaction time, perfect 60 fotter and the car must have a killer top end, with the run done at night with cool temps.
A freak example and some bloody awesome driving fashizle.  |

reaction time dosent matter, the timer wont start till you move off that mark.
i've ran up against really loud cars and i will sit at the line for 3 or 4 seconds before taking off so i can hear my car. |

thats not too bad, clean the filter out, run the fuel down to 1/4, maybe even take the spareout and you'll probably run a 14.
i ran 16.09 in a stock au1 futura auto on saturday. |

Remeber it's a ute...utes use a different diff ratio...gives a great launch  but mine runs out of puff at high end. Not gunna quote times for two reasons:1) I don't have any official timeslips
2) If I had slips, they'd probably be embarrassing  |
