Cool

1988 5.0 LX Hatch. $2500. A little worn out. Assuming standard everyday mods have been made 90% of the time they are. 2.5" cat back, cold air, bumped timing, shifter, underdrives, clutch adjuster, 190 fuel pump.

Rebuild kit: $420
block machining: $150
Twisted Wedge heads: $900
E-303 cam: $160
1.6:1 RR: $200
TFS Intake: $400
AFPR: $100
65mm T/B: $180
cold air: $free
190lph pump: $free
underdrives: $free
1 5/8" longtubes: $240
2.5" H for LT: $130
2.5" cat back: $free
Pro 5.0: $free
clutch adj: $free
4.10 gears: $400 installed
subframes: $150
control arms: $300
clutch kit: $250
4cly springs: $20
NOS 100 shot: $400

Estimated ET (since you'd need a rollcage at the strip) mid/high 11's.

Total cost: $6900. Reliable, streetable, 5.0. No stroker, no supercharger. Probably 11's w/o spray. Now, inferno I expect you can pick a FWD car (not replace the motor with anything other than stock IE: no GSR motors into a CRX otherwise we can change our **** to a 427 BB in a $800 4banger, and cut massive cost) and come somewhere close to that figure?

Good luck.
