a 100 wet shot or a procharger would put you into the low 12 easy. heck do a cam, i know that i can get a 100hp off a big cam in my ls1. your 4.6 should get somewhere close to that. what rwhp are you getting.

Our 4.6 will see about 30-40 at the wheels on a stock setup

i would love to swap out the cam for a bigger and badder cam but with college coming up i really have to hold back on mods for a while even though some people would say my car is slow or a full bolt on GT is slow but in reality there faster that 90% of the cars on the road maybe even more.

Once you go a few more times you will get that time down. It takes some pratice trust me. What mph did you run?

you can go high 12's with 104mph trap speed. Figure once you get it to hook up to loose a 1mph or soo which would get you high 12's with traction and good weather. So go and pratice some more!!!! God i love drag racing.

lol dont we all love drag racing?

i think im going again today im going to practice slipping the clutch out and maybe i can get it to hook wen i go i do a burnout not in the water box but on dry pavement. should i be doing that with street tires. i figure the only thing it hurts is my wallet

you dont want to go threw the water, GO AROUND IT! after that just a few short seconds to clean the tire of rocks and what not is all that is needed. No big burnout needed.
