It's a cable shifted 930 box and shifts very similar to a WWII dump truck. Wish I had a G50/50!
hahaha werd! Whenever I describe the 930 as notchy, I just don't feel like I am getting the point across as to
how notchy
Reminds me of a guy I built a blown 347 for in his 5.0. Went to the track and 1st pass was like 11:20s at 130+. I told him to put an auto in the car or learn to shift and he would be low-10s. He got all bent outta shape and told me he shifted just fine. Second pass was 11:17 at 134mph. The guy at the slip pick-up kicked him off the track (needed 2 more points on the cage for 10.99 and faster) and told him if he learns to shift he would be low-10s.
He told me that, I LMAO and the next week he went to an auto and ran something like 10:20s.
That car would easily be 10s if it were easier to shift... why not buy some cheapie 15" steel wheels and have them widened (probably have $100 in the set as 15" steelies are dirt cheap even with the trouble of finding 130mm pattern) and throw some 10-10.5s slicks on there. With so many 10" classes, the tires are plentiful and cheap. Would make trips to the track that much more fun for only a couple hundred bucks total. Probably get some used ones with a pass or two left in them for free or a couple bucks.
