I'm using the T2 trans, but hope to get the Doug Nash 5spd installed soon. I'm trying to get in the 5's.. hopefully the trans will put me there. I'm installing a 6pt roll bar now. The car was starting to buckle the right rear quarter panel. the car is very unpredictable the fist 300ft....so I'm hoping the rollbar and frame connectors will make the car more consistent. It runs the same mph every pass; but it's hard to go quicker than 6.50.
Can some of the Gurus chime in with some go fast tips.

Yeah Joey carbs are very underated except in the V8 world. The Puerto Ricans still run a lot of carb cars and have some very fast rides with them too.

Stock trans....just make sure your clutch is completely disengauging.

gas vs e85?
How much faster did you get switching from gas to e85?
I love the E85....and so does my rotary. It really woke up my Corolla . The car is nothing special: 66mm/t4(22psi) T2 motor(street port), with a Holley HP 950. Yep...I'm a carb guy. Car gets high13/low14 cruise afr on a gas meter. 2450lbs with driver.
I finally got a good rearend so I decided to go to my local 1/8th track for testing. Here's a breakdown of my best timeslip.
60ft: 1.36
330ft: 4.18
1/8th: 6.34
1/8thmph: 112
Here's the vid.
