mid 14's, What tires? With some DR's you could probably hit low 14's, maybe high 13's. Auto or 5-spd?

I bet high 13s with the good driver mod on good street tires. I mean he does have gt40 heads with a port and polish on them along with all the other bolt ons and a good cam. Cam might be a little big for that setup though.

its a 5 speed, it has 24lb injectors too, but its not like thats really gonna make a difference and a Granatelli Mass Air Meter. I have a Dry Edelbrock Nitrous kit for it, alot of ppl say dry systems are junk? is it worth putting on? will i have to get aftermarket pistons or rods? Anyway that ****ing sucks high 13's or low 14's. It has regular street tires on it, they are in good shape for now. it has eibach springs, and KYB shocks and struts, strut bar and a B&M short throw shifter.

man no offense to the other guys that posted replies but i hope they are wrong. i am working on a similar setup and will be highly disappointed with low 14s or even high 13s. i mean the car stock with decent driver should be a mid 14s car right? guess the tranny makes a big difference but if its a t-5 with sticky tires i think he could easily be in the low 13s. just my opinion.

I was hoping someone would post something that like, i checked out 1/4 mile times for factory stock vechiles, and a 90GT ran a 14.9 stock, and with the mods i have i was hoping low-mid 13's. Cuz there is this ******* where i live with a 2003 Volkswagon R32 with a borla exhaust and an intake, i just wanna beat him, ****ing rice burners.

I think it's gotta be faster than high 13's. A '95 Cobra with an E cam went high 12s, and you have quite a few better parts, I wouldnt be surprised if you could pull off a low 13 at least with sticky tires.

And sell your Venom 400 module.

i guess i really dont know but i have researched my future setup which is similar to yours. and i have been lead to believe that a decent driver with sticky tires could possibly hit high 12s. those numbers are probably inflated so low to mid 13s should be very attainable. street tires would probably be your biggest setback. you need to get that thing out there and run it i really wanna know now.
