Tested my 0-60 times this morning
I've had a G-tech pro meter in the toolbox from years ago when I was into upgrading cars for performance.
This morning I found it and put in the my 89 wag to laugh at the results.
0-60 in 11.89 secs. Has anyone else done this? How much slower am I than you? My stock carb is crappy so I am curious. I don't think any of the other engine mods on this jeep are doing anything, not that it really matters on a boat anchor like vehicle.
Let me know, curious to hear.

79 Cherokee WT with 33x12.50s, 3.54 gears, Holley Street Dominator intake, TFI ignition, Edel 650 or thereabouts carb, K&N filter, Quadratrack locked in e-drive with the front shaft removed.
It's quicker if you manually shift as was shown to me before I handed over a fat wad of 100's for it, but I haven't done that since. 
I letcha know what she'll do after I pop another TH400 and PT kit QT in it here in a few weeks 
My ole Jtruck will prolly have more power, but the ancient t18 isn't exactly a speed shifting demon. More like "Massey Ferguson Lightning"

LMAO, that's what I was thinking. With the T18A and 4.09 gears in the diffs, I'm not even sure I can reach 60.

Don't know nothing about 0-60.
B350/Th400/4.10's/315's/Welded GovLok
I can get it to 70 or so on a good day.
Right about that time it's best to stop for lunch.
It does get a whopping 9.6 MPG (depending on wind/hill/rotation of the earth).

Mine's not *that* fast anymore, but with a Truck Avenger carb, single 3" exhaust, roof-rack, and 32" tires with 3.07 gears, it still smoked the heck out of a new F-150 with the 5.4 V8 (I know that's not saying much), and a previous generation Tundra V8. 
Years ago, after the rebuild, and with dual exhaust and stock tires, I remember smoking an IS-300 from a light. |

Sorry, but Toyota's 4.7L v8 is a turd.
Yeah, the T18 hardly makes for a fast FSJ. But the great thing with a stick is you can rev the crap out of it and shift as fast as you can & PRETEND you are going fast.
But I think mine is actually faster sitting in the driveway with me making engine & shifting sounds by mouth.  |

my 360 with a t18A and 3.54s, stock tires suspension etc. will do it in about 8sec. over the summer i beat an acura integra that was a sleeper he had me for a little bit, but once I shifted into 3rd it was over. I have yet to race a Tundra with the 5.7 because everyone around here who has a tundra is so proud there driving a toyota that there scared theyll be beaten by a jeep i guess.

The wood paneling is what makes it fast.  Seriously though, I picked up a tenth in the quarter and 2 tenths 0-60 when I put the magnetic wood on last time.

You're going to need more than that if you want to keep up. Got a few tricks up my sleeve for next season.
