Jeff and Ron thanks for the replies, I like to keep a good goal in mind "I know it is slightly out of reach". I have a friend in a 93 notch back that goes 11.30's @ 119 all motor 306ci, with nothing elaborate, Stage II TFS heads, Holley intake, Anderson Cam, Power pipe, 75mm TB and a 80mm Pro-M, 30# injectors, 4:30's SSM lowers, 31 splines, stock fron suspension shock and struts, 1.50 60ft times and on 28" x 10.5" ET DRAGS. The car has dyno tested 347RWHP. I had a hard time believing it in the begining but I saw the dyno sheets and time slips.

Here's the scoop on my car
My car is sitting in my garage basically as a shell, all the interior is out as I prepare to weld in my 8pt S&W with the "X" in the back to the shock towers. I'm adding 2 JAZ racing seats, no back seat, all the deadon material is scrapped off and all the padding is gone. The A/C and PS have been removed as well as anything else on the motor that I didn't need, Air Pump and all emission stuff is gone as well since it is not required in my state. I have a drive shaft loop, SFI approved Lakewood bell housing, SFI approved flywheel, clutch, balancer and I will add the wheel studs when I add my new Superior 31 splines later this winter.

Holley is sending me a new set of heads since almost all of the valve seals were out of their seats, 1 was broke and sitting in the drain in the head. The heads flow good numbers I got 270 intake and 168 exhaust out of the last set and they were not port matched, 3/16" lip on some. The new set will be port matched which should free up some more power as well. I am adding a Anderson N-61 cam it has 110 lobe center, .544/.568 lift and 228/236 duration @ .050, I am fly cutting my pistons to accept the new cam. The last time up the car looked as it wanted to lift the wheels but with no traction it will not happan, I went 12.801 @ 106 with a 2.48 60ft sucking a ton of oiul through my motor due to the bad valve guides and shitty Holley cam, I also found out I had 1 bad 02 sensor. I now have my Ron Davis Radiator to keep it running cool, and a electric fan. I have added MSD coil and ignition. I have aspirations for the new motor since the car did break into the mid 12's in poor running condition, I always felt my MPH was way down though. The battery will be moved to the hatch, I have SSM lowers, re-enforced torque boxes, boxed uppers 5 degree pinion angle, 70/30's, 50/50's, Eibach kit w/ airbag, sub frames, no front sway bar and I was running 26" x 10.5" M&H RACEMASTERS, I have a set of 28" x 10.5" ET DRAGS but I am going to buy a set of 26" x 10.5" ET STREETS.

I will get it on the local dyno here to see what kind of power I am putting out this spring, but I need to get it to hook I was unabke to come off the line last year at any kind of RPM anything over 3500 resulted in major wheel spin in first and second even with them hot and sticky, it left real hard. I think it was due to my M&H's I hope the switch to the MT"s will help. What do you think?

Jeff I understand how much money it takes to get there, I added up how much I have in my car and it is shocking how much is just alone in the motor, not counting the $900.00-$1000.00 in suspension. I do all my own work so I get a lot of enjoyment out of a strong running car that I built with my own blood and sweat nothing can be better. I plan on adding a Tube K-member with HAL coil overs down the road but right now I am happy with the way the car should be.

Sorry this was so long but I wanted to give you guys all the info I think you need to know about my combo. Any help, ideas or comments you guys have is great.
