arp main studs, and arp head bolts
edelbrock heads
cc306 camshaft
manley one piece pushrods
stainless 1.6 roller rockers
comp guideplates
3000 stall converter.

msd 6al

the car also the newer front end on it...

so what do you think this car will run??
im hopein for low 13's

What exhaust? With drag radials you're probably there.

[BlackTA96]

bbk shorties and magnaflow cat back
and i've got a set of slicks for the track

[BlackTA96]

oh and it has a granatelli air lid(has the LS1 intake setup)..and madtuner.com custom tune.

Nice upgrade from the Stang. I have a 96 WS6 with the BBK shorties and a tune and I ran a 13.7 before the tune without drag radials. You should hit low 13s. Post it when you find out.

What Edelbrock heads does it have? The E'brock LT1 heads are not much different than the stock LT1 heads. The LT4 heads are closer to the stock LT4 heads (~15-20% more flow). Generally, aftermarket heads are not required until you go over 500 flywheel HP. Up to that point, the best bang for the buck is ported stock heads.

What rear gears do you have? Some of the A4's (the ones without the optional "performance rear axle" package) came with 2.73's. With the rear axle package, they were 3.23's. 3.73's would probably complement your setup better.

they are the edlebrock lt1 heads...yea i've heard that the stocks heads are good for 500 hp..

the guy i bought it from claimed it has 3.23's but i plan on droppin in 3.73's either way

[Craig 94 TA GT]

Stalled and cammed like that, you should be well into the 12s with traction. However, I don't know how well the CC306 is matched to those heads.

What size injectors and throttle body? Did he have programming on the PCM?

[BlackTA96]

there both stock

Open your driver side door and look for the Service Parts Identification sticker. Look for the following codes:

GU2 - 2:73
GU5 - 3:23
GU6 - Manual 6 Speed
