If you run it with slicks and drag springs before beefing up the tranny, clutch, and rear you'll be on your way to a high 12 car.You'll have a 12 second car or about the first 60 feet or so before all this new found traction throws a gear threw the side of your stock t-5 or a clutch right threw the bellhousing. I wouldn't go any more than drag radials with the stock drivetrain, especially if your planning on shooting more hp in w/ some nitrous. Go with a set of roller rockers, lower control arms, possibly a junkyard electric fan assembly, and some underdrive pulleys. That should put you into the high 13's, then you get bigger stuff like heads,cam, etc. from there.
