id be happy to dig into the twelves with my setup on slicks, eventually i will get a supercharger, realistically probably a frpp centrifugal becuse theyre more affordable. that should at least get me low 12's or high 11's if the track is prepped well. i just ordered bbk shorties today, baby steps.

Default RE: What are your REALISTIC goals for your 5.0?

My goal is to be around 400rwhp


I have

Trickflow heads slightly ported ( bought em for 300 I know the heads are to big for my setup but I stole em)
Trickflow street heat manifold
Steeda #19 cam
30lb injectors
215lph fuel pump
70mm tb
75mm maf
bbk cai
bbk shorty headers
bbk o/r h pipe
flowmasters

This spring I'm either doing :
1. 03 cobra polished rims , tint ,4cyl springs up front , repaint front bumper
2. 100 shot and 275 street radial mt's, 4 cyl springs up front
Kind of worried to shoot the 100 shot cause I have 110k miles but my compression is perfect.

And I'm might get a 3200 stall for my Birthday

As far as performance I am right where I want to be. Any faster, in the 1/8 anyway, and I am going toneed a 6 point roll bar and expensive seat belts. I would like to put leather in it, fox the little odd things that are broke or missing, hide the wiring under the hood,and geta nice paint job.
