Pretty impressive. Ive heard of people doing that but noone ever had proof. If you get that thing into the 12's than I will REALLY be impressed.

RE: Stock! 13.4 video [for the none believers]
the autos and others the run 12s are using aftermarket parts on suspension and steeper gears
come spring im hopefully doing a rebuild on the syncros, new clutch/cable, new stock rear springs, new stickies/skinnies along with Welds, subframes and going to Toy with the launches of 5k,6k and 6250 rpm
as soon as a 12.99 is reached ill mod the car, but like to do as much as possible with nothing at all.
Hell ppl say you need steep gears. right there are 355s. a 13.4 is ok but 13.1 woudl be better but that was only my 3rd time ever launching a stick car at the track and only having car a week [all other launches were only made that day]

it helps with weight transfer and allows the front to rise up alot more, that helps put weigh on rear tires. thus being weight transfer

you want the rear sway bar intact. actually getting a new stronger one is a good idea. reason why alot of ppl go with Anti-Roll bars like my hatch does
