looks like a mid 14 second 1/4 mile to me... 1.9 60 ft? what's your current engine situation? dosent look like you have the motor for a sub 2 second sixty foot.

you can probobaly squeeze a tenth or two the way it is... beef up the rear suspension and upgrade to at least a 3.73 gear would be the best thing you can do right away. as far as your planned engine i would guess with the correct chassis/suspension mods maybe a mid high 12 combo

you need gears bad, a 2.95 first gear is designed for higher gears in the rear to give you more first gear
