0-60 time

f00g00 · 08-04-2005, 12:40 PM

Hello,
I'm new to the forum here. I have a 1987 NA 7MGE M/T for the last 7 years, am currently on my 4th engine, (all bhg) but no matter which engine has been in, my 0-60 times are all weak. According to several 0-60 sites I should be around 7.9 0-60 and 16.0 1/4 mile. well Ive allways been between 11 and 12 0-60 and never tried 1/4 mile time. Its embarrasing when I can barely beat a Tercel.
Ive done the AFM mod have the K&N standard filter and thats about it for mods. The tag in the door says the weight is 4460 pounds, add some for tools and stereo upgrades.
I'm an american working in Kuwait so that is why its cheaper to put in a second hand motor than have the shady mechanics change the gasket. The last time I tried that he slightly overlooked the hole in the number 6 piston.
Any ideas why Im almost twice the recommended time?
