Reaction time has nothing to do with your ET , you can stay on the line for 1min and not effect your ET . Your time is good for a STD car , in comparison I had a XD Fairmont Ghia 4.9 stock std and i achieved 16.4 @85.49 MPH so again not bad for a 4.0 ltr stock Falcon , I forgot to mention this happened 37 years ago .

Not a bad time at all for an old ED. Assuming you stalled it up for launch, not much else you can do in an auto , other than man shifting at optimal RPM points (memorising when you have to actually shit up to account for delay) if its not doing it by itself. You makin me feel both old and young again at same time watching this .

Swap out the stock intake pipe that connects to the throttle body as it ruduces down to like 2" at the airbox end.. and put a K&N or similar filter in it Do a cat delete and remove the clutch fan off the waterpump as they both rob power.. put ef/el twin thermofans on her
