i have a 75 montego with a 77 engine i built several years ago before i really knew much about engines. i am not sure if all my components are balanced out with one another. my goal is to run a quarter mile in less than 14 seconds. here is my build info. stock heads D3VEA2A, stock exhaust manifolds with two and a quarter inch pipes with no catalytic converters and a crossover pipe and dual flowmaster mufflers. i have a crane cam with 487 lift on the intake and 518 on the exhaust advertised duration is 260 and 272 duration at .050 is 204 and 214. keith black hypereutectic pistons .030 over. supposedly 9.7 compression but am not sure if that is correct. edelbrock performer intake with holley 4160 750 cfm. stock duraspark ignition. 370 gears limited slip. 26 inch diameter tires. saturday night special converter. c-6 with a shift improver kit. i have never taken it to the drag strip but have taken another car at 14 flat and know this one is not as fast. any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!
