Thread: Fairmont wagon

    Default Fairmont wagon

    Finally got back to the track on Saturday with my wagon. I street drive the car all summer and drive it to the track, 315/60 radial and 3.25 gear. Its a stock 71 block 351w based engine with a 88mm turbo, took some work but got it under the stock hood. 93 pump gas on 17psi and 17 degree timing it went 9.17 at 147.96mph. Leaking transmission pump seal ended the day before I could get an 8 out of it. Sorry for the poor pic I cropped it from someone elses that was at the track. Rebuilding trans due to clutches being worn out, 6 years on it so it is due, Hoping weather holds for one last run at the 8's.



    1979 Fairmont wagon 414ci (stock block), 88mm T6, TH400, 9" rear 8.92 at 152.
    1980 Boxtop 306 w/70mm, 10.05 at 142.66 (traction limited) Dart blocked 331ci, S480
