Stock 5.0s have seen high 14s and low 15s, some can even go mid to low 14s with a good driver. To go 12s with a stock engine it would take a good suspension setup, gears, tires, and a really good driver. From the sounds of it your frind isn't too familiar with the track so expect him to be in the mid 15s with a stock car. And Skillz, love the sig.

with just a head swap you will not see 12's on an sn-95.....the detuned ecm holds back sn-95 and your friend will need exhaust, gears , all bolt ons and an h/c/i and a dyno tune for mods at that he should be close to 300 rwhp and with that he'll see 12's but just on a head swap..not gonna happen on an sn'95

It's very possible with the proper suspension, gears, and tires.
