Diabolical!

Dude what planet are you from? Ron's already in the elevens N/A, how would adding cams and performance heads put him in the mid 13s? Especially in a car that runs mid 13s bone stock? Maybe you misunderstood the original post...

well it may be kinda hard to understand for a SC new-edge in 13´s that a S197 could be in mid-top 11´s NA.

I didn't say it was cheap but there are a few things that you could probably skip and still get there as long as the weather cooperates.
the wheels and tires didn't make as big of a difference as I thought. Over the summer I switched to the stock bullets/pirellis and to my amazement it actually hooked and ran about a tenth slower than the bogarts with m/t's.
also the gt500 t/b really didn't do much.
my aluminum race seat is only 15-20lbs. lighter than the stock seat.
the ram air hood may not be necessary either
Andyman has been 12.30 full weight with stock wheels and m/t drag radials without a lot of the stuff i have...also an auto car.
the must have item is the Spydershaft
It's really all in the tune, converter and gears with a few other small things added in.
using the MPH and weight in a racing calculator I come up with 405hp at the crank which is about 340-350rwhp

ron is your car streetable

Diabolical!

I'm sure he doesn't run the bias plys on the street (I have them and I can tell you, I DO NOT drive with them on the street), but other than that, everything on his mod list looks perfectly streetable, even the power steering delete is fine once you get used to muscleing the steering wheel a bit.

h other than the race wheels and tires it's totally streetable. I replace the belt with the stock one when I'm street driving. It's so easy to do it can be done in the staging lanes at the track in minutes so there's no need to ride around with no p/s.
i still get about 17mph average with my street tune. the race tune has timing locked and needs additive or race gas and shifts much harder with more aggressive lock up schedules for the converter. It's doesn't drive well on the street with that tune so I have the street tune for regular driving. I have the car back to complete street trim (full interior, full exhaust, stock tires/wheels, no decals etc.) now so i can drive it around and test some new products we are developing. I'm going to build another engine and this one will be a little less friendly for the street but still considered "streetable" in my book I'm shooting for 10's N/A so the cams will be very aggressive and the compression may be a bit on the high side for a daily driver.
