Default What do I need to reach 12's on my 94 gt conv.

It's a 94' GT conv.
-Mach1 wheels w/ bfg drag radials
-bbk 70mm TB
-3.5" cold air intake w/ k&n
-eibach lowering springs, control arms(not sure what brand), camber plates
-short throw shifter
-msd distributor
-full MAC exhaust
-3.73 gears

I am not sure what setup I should go with.. what type of manifold/heads/cams setup should I get that would put me into the 12's all motor??

Cheapest way if possible...

to keep the cost down you should get some nice ported gt40 heads, with a trick flow stage 1 cam, and a gt40 intake
ive got the same car with the same goal... just no mods to match yours, sounds like youre well on your way to 12's
get some sub frame connectors and put more into your suspension

Cheapest? A decent sized shot of nitrous...which isn't the best idea on hypereutectic pistons.

If you can put down about 350+ hp you might be able to do it.
Engine alone... won't be cheap to get it up over 400 hp.
And using enough nitrous to put down that kind of power won't be safe on stock internals so don't even attempt that.
I believe at our dragstrip if you break 13.5 secs in a converible you need to have either a roll bar or roll cage too.

Im making 398hp on spray.. on a stock bottom end with my factory heads/cam/intake
Its definitly possible, but he needs atleast gt-40's a good cam (like the steeda #19) a good intake, and have the heads ported and milled

I made 420 at the wheels with a 125 shot of nitrous and sprayed the hell out of it, I tried to break it, it just wouldnt break.
and I have speedpro hyperutectic pistons.
a 150 shot is fine on stock internals.
