I haven't seen the T3 4 bolt or 5 bolt, but the 6 bolt looks REALLY good. Wayne, are the T3 4 bolt and 5 bolt housings Bullseye units or cast BW units?
For the record, one big reason why 70-90 times mean squat is because some people get the numbers from a third gear pull (2500-->whenever), and some people get them through logs from actual runs at the drag strip (which is what I'm assuming most people actually do when they correlate the time with an ET).
Edit: ignore the whole 70-90 discussion entirely.
Unfortunately, this creates a huge difference in the times since the car has more momentum when you go through second before third. I've personally seen differences as high as .3 seconds on my old Evo 3 setup (3.0 vs. 2.7). Gateway International Raceway closes much earlier than the east coast strips it seems, so I can't really get any numbers until next spring.
