dude, those times give me hope

No offense man but I pull better 60 ft times than that in my FWD. You should be able to easily pull sub 2 second 60 ft times with AWD, and watch your ETs drop as well.

Get your car running at top notch and get in some track time and you should be able to see 14.9x runs easily. Jake

You should visit the track when you get your head fixed. Your car should EASILY pull a mid 9 in the 1/8mi. When I was bone stock (no exhaust or even boost), I ran a 9.3@73mph in the eighth. Also, on my stock clutch, I actually mustered a 1.9 60', but missed second badly, resulting in a 10.9 Anyway, work on those times when the car is running good, those times have room for improvement

yeah i know the head is all the problem but i just love going to the track. A full engine rebuild is soon taking place so i just wanted a starting time. Lets put it this way, the head knocks so bad people ask who's there. the engine rebuild is going like this, tell me if i am missing anything.
Competition 3 angle valve job
SI Stainless 1mm oversize valves
95 Pistons with Factory Ring Set bore .020
new belts
all new gaskets

Not great, but I give you credit for going to the track to get some times as a baseline. I did the same thing when I picked up a 92 AWD last fall. This way you can keep track of how fast your hard work has made the car.
