How to be 11sec fast?

Hey...you can just spend ONLY $19.95. Just go buy some Giant sticker, and japanese writing...then get some clear lights and neons underneath....that is good for atleast 11.50's.

Really though, I'd get a good stroker(coast has a good kit)heads that flow 270+ int, .550-.560 cam, good intake(Holley,Saleen/Vortech,TFS TH...) and long tubes, with the other givens...with 10.5-11.0 comp you should have 375-390 rwhp...I've seen it done mesef

SMOKEDOG- like unit said, don't start that here and with our bud Sky. He DOES know what he is talking about, and is in-fact correct. a 347 vs.302 will net you about a 40-50 hp gain with everything that was in the 302 swapped over to the 347....what do you actually think that by just installing a 347 you will magically have a 11 sec car?? hell no. My bud has a 300 rwhp 347, so there is proof there. And he is right on another issue. Cost of getting a stroker to run good times....I'll list it for ya so there isn't any arguement. I'll even list the cheapest prices I have seen.

347: $1500 from Summit
HEADS: $950(TFS from Saleen)
INTAKE: $400(TFS or Cobra)
CAM: $150(TFS from Summit)
RR's: $200
TB: $200
MAF: $200
HEADERS: $200(shorties)
H-PIPE: $150(MAC)
CAT-BACK:$180(Dynomax)
GEARS: $300 installed

I'm sure I forgot some stuff, but that alone is $4,400, and that doesn't include shipping or having the motor built. So Sky was very much right
