Re: [T3] Im off to the Hillclimb...


Car is basically stock, it does have air shocks and a rear stabilizer on the
suspension.  Engine is stock FI but Ive noodled with it a bit... its an E
system with an A pressure sensor and a bit of tweaking of the mixture.

I didnt compete with the sports cars but I did have alot of fun... What the
car WILL do is make it all the way to the top in 1 run...  most of the stock
water pumpers, if pushed to any degree, will need to stop and cool a couple
times on the way up.  The Square will be just fine if you keep it between 35
and 40 in second most of the time (4500RPM).  The car would benefit GREATLY
with a close-ratio 5 speed... the stock tranny is just too wide spaced for a
good hill climb run.
