Yeah, thats what im looking for. A friend said he will port and polish my stocker but Im not gonna waste my time. As soon as I get the C&L im gonna practice my P&P skills on the stocker. Then maybe sell it for a couple bucks.

Well im just refering to the LS1 guys that say it never happens. I know it can be done... because I was .03 from it.
I don't think anyone denies they can go 12's with bolt-ons. It just take a whole ton of work, as you're doing.

Congrats though.

I got my Vigilante 3200 stall finally....now with some DR's I might actually get to break something.

Well say bye bye to that rear end with the stall. My buddy's TA is running 12.8's and 12.9's with ET streets and a 3500 stall and he threw out the read BAD. He upgraded and is now back to racing. My other friend was running his 98 Z28 with a 125 shot running a 11.93 on drags and he tore his all to hell also. Now he's running a 9" Ford rear with 4.10's. LOL

Ya, I'm gonna buy it a girdle....I know, how girlie. There's guys going 10's with the stock 10 bolt, just have to beef it up. I'm hoping to go mid 12's if I can hook at all. That's what most guys with the same setup as mine are going in good weather. 12.5-12.9's @ 108-111mph.

Running a Ford 9" in any car isn't uncommon. It's damn near the best rear end ever built. Why is that so surprising to you?

Yea, I was gonna say something about it, but I didn't wanna go into a 10 page debate....

I've seen a TON of foxbody's here with SBC and BBC motors....all of them are running a Ford 9".

I think he was getting at that it's pretty much common knowledge to anyone that goes to a dragstip that most of the fast cars have a Ford rear end.
