Stock everything except what was listed and a clutch. I don't have the tick (yet at least) and the car hasn't been babied by any means either.

Yeah I've had the car since 09 but college took all my time and money so I am just now getting extra funds to have fun with it. I have 4.10's and bushings ready to go in and I'm using some stock 03 wheels for Hoosier drag radials for the track. After that its getting a bottom end that will handle what I want later on and probably get the valves, springs and heads setup as well.

4.10's will be a huge diff on a sticky tire. Do that and the springs at the same time and spin her to the moon. You will run 12's without trying. Cool car man.

Got closer but the track wasn't in my favor tonight. I changed springs from H&R race to cut stock springs, replaced the UPR X with a Bassani X and put some new plugs in and set the gap on them down to 48 . I picked up 5-6 MPH each run but the 2.0 60' is just killing me. I think with just hoosier DR's I could be in the 12.9-12.8 range easy.

Anyway here's the last slip for the year. I have a video racing a Terminator with a 3.4, sra yada yada that went 10.0 drag radials but potato phone video sucks and you can't see it

Dang that's getting close. Got any more weight to pull out of it? Front away bar? How does it weight transfer? Maybe some Lakewood 90/10 front shocks. You'll definitely be there with some tires tho.

As far as weight goes I have:

A/C delete
donathen front bumper support
Mach 460 rear deck removed
No spare tire
Still has the full interior (for now)

It's not a straight drag car since I do enjoy auto-x and want to do some road course events as well so I'm still trying to find a good balance between them all
