1/4 Times

hey guys. im just wondering wat your 1/4 mile times are. i got some problems, but still ran my car and i got
1st run 16.118 @88.410
2nd run 16.152 @87.194
3rd run 15.752 @87.567
4th run 16.023 @86.408
all of these were on 87 octane

im hopping to fix my valve cover gasket and put new plugs and run 15.5-15.3

what did you guys get?

16s is slow. To run "normal" times, do the following:
1. Fix all the problems
2. Fill up with 91 or 93

Too many variables. Everyone on here has different mods and lives in different parts of the country/world.

what is wrong with your vc? Is it leaking oil though one of the gromments for the spark plug?? pretty much is there oil on any of your plugs??

Another thing there is the cheap way with the straps but there are also these
