Set up right, a junk yard motor will go 12s like it is. light car, good gears, tires, little suspention work. Mine will go 12.50s @ 108-109 with a BONE STOCK motor. Yes I only weigh 2750lbs and I can 60ft with a 1.5 but the question is how do you want to do it. I have a small budget and I am raising my two kids alone. Money does not have to be a factor. Weight and suspention is the key. Good Luck no matter how you do it.
Now,
1 AFRs 165
2 Holly Systemax, & 65mmTB
3 XE264HR
4 24lbs injectors
5 1 5/8 long tube headers, no cats, Quickflows, dumped
6 4.11 gears, Pyle Bros Perf clutch kit in stock chunk
7 stock bottom end
8 90/10s, 4cyl springs (all 4), air bag.
9 Any tire you want, yes even a raidial, 12.80 to 11.90s 110 - 114mph depending on traction and your driving skill.
