Here is a cool budget setup:
Pick your fave non 'vert body style
C4 tranny with a low 4000 RPM stall
Slicks and gears
Stock bottem end
TFS high port heads
Pick your favorite cam (TFS 2?)
Pick your favorite intake
Pick your favorite exhaust
Pick your favorite power adder

my car on a 150 shot is perfect for that ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
(tremec 3550, spool, 302 H/C/I, + N20). So what if it's light. ![[Whoo Whooooo!]](graemlins/woowoo.gif)

Buy a notchback.
Lighten it up a little bit to ~3000lbs without driver.
Full drag susspenssion.
ET Drags, etc.
Stock longblock with home ported heads & plenty of valvespring.
Aftermarket intake.
Off-road exhaust & straight-thru mufflers.
F303 cam.
Single turbo kit with a T64 & 14-15lbs of boost.
Plenty of fuel.
Automatic prefered, but a Tremec will work.
High 10's at mid 120mph in the 1/4. It's been done with stock E7 heads actually.

Well of course they were ported to run single digits. On the east coast, people have ran well into the 7's with them.... but shoot, turbo302 (check out the drag racing forum) on here ran a 10.2 with stock TFS TW's, FMS cam and a big turbo.

I'm in the debating mood so, you're talkin box stock 185's vs. massaged highports. Plus you're most likely talkin NA (AFR) vs. supercharged (highports) with the ET's you've shown. What a comparison, lol

On the AFR side, 13's = that guy with the AOD and E cam making 250 rwhp, 12's = your combo ![[Wink]](wink.gif) 11's = TheBrain's FTI185's + nitrous., 10's = Non existant, 9's = non existant, 8's = non existant, 7's = non existant, 6's = stop dreaming.
On the TFS side, we have 10's = turbo302's stock TW's, TurboBen with high ports, KevenL with high ports, 9's = KevenL's notch with ported high ports, 8's = Norman?( I think he got 8's off with the high ports), Herman with TFS R's, and god knows how many non EFI SBF's.

Hehe, don't leave out Mike or Rhett in the 11's NA. Mike has the potential to squeek a very high 10 NA (ideal conditions), but we'll see. All the highport guys are boosted. Wheres the hot LOCAL NA highport guys

oh see you mis-understood me, i simply said 185cc heads, NEVER AFR. i am a firm believer in SCREW AFR!!! i was talkin some nicely worked TFS TW's stage 2 race prepped. like the ones for sale. they have a high velocity which makes them good for NA, also flow 327cfm @ .700 lift. where the highports flow what 296cfm @ .800 lift. now im not sure if that is right, but i think the highports flow soemthing liek that. but yea AFR are nothing but a paper weight.

92coupe, that was some of the funniest stuff I've read in the tech forum
True, the TW's ported will probably do better than the high ports on a 302 NA street car.

IMHO if you want consistent 10's, any lick of driveability, and want to stay 302 based, it will require a power adder.
If I were building this car it would have the following...
- stock shortblock
- afr 165's or tfs TW
- any aftermarket intake of your choice (I'd probably match gasket match it to the heads)
- A TFS #1 cam or close to it
- S-trim
- 3.73, 3.90 or 4.10 gears
- slicks
- + all basic bolt ons (injectors, TB, MAF, 1 3/4inch headers, 2.5inch exhaust, etc, etc, etc)
This combo in a reasonable weight fox should run very high 10's assuming a decent driver, a driveline that can handle it, and a good tune.
Personally, I'd prefer to do it naturally aspirated with cubes... Something along the lines of a AFR 205 headed EFI 392 or 408 with some compression...
