'88 sport 306 with 5spd conversion. 4.11 posi rear,alum ds, all the bolt on motor goodies, full header back exhaust no cats. ran fastest of 13.05 on nitto drag radials launching around 3gs. this resulted in a blown apart clutch so it now has a dual friction center force. got this one for a steal also. tube rear control arms and lowering springs on the way.

That looks like my last Bird. Great looking car, and very respectable numbers. I like it.
has most of the goodies listed in ur signature..dynomax ss lers too. guy i bought it from had lots of money into it parts and labor
hoping for 12's with the new centerforce..blew the frpp
I've got a few more things to do, but having fun with it as it is for now.
Sits high in the front...?
Nice Fox though :)
yeah and low in the rear. previous owner had air bags for racing inside rear springs. no air in them in the pic makes front look super high
unless he did something to make it high..it was kinda setup for drag racing
Nice T-bird :)
Two questions:
What heads does it have?
What is that line that runs from the front of the passenger side valve cover for?
Are you using a blow sheild? search blown up clutch on youtube . And great numbers car looks great
Nice car.
PS ... it looks like its launching, just sitting still.
alum gt40 heads and the line goes to the catch can for if oil comes out from over pressure(correct me if im wrong guys). the line would usually go from the valve cover to the tb. the can allows u to empty it rather than it blow back through the intake. not aware of a blow shield so im gonna assume I dont have one. when the clutch went..half of the surface material was gone and lots of bent fingers on pressure plate. was still drivable but very hard to get in and out of gear due to it not disengaging all of the way
I have to admit, I kind of miss my Sport sitting high.
You may want to put the PCV system back to stock. With a MAF system it's important to have it working like it did from the factory for correct air metering.
Looks good. Nice times for a aluminum GT40 head car. With a little work I bet you could get into the 12s :).
hoping the new centerforce clutch and some fresh drag radials will get me to the 12's. drag radials i have are about shot
