the BEST bang for your buck mods are these
1) gears
2) tires
3) nitrous
#1 requires #2
#3 requires #2
your car requires #1,#2,#3
a stock notch 5 speed will run 12's all day long with tires and gears on a small shot

im looking to try and eventually be putting out around 400rwhp, i want it to be able to handle practically any road course track i put it on while remaining streetable. im sitting at roughly 270rwhp now, i would prefer not to mess with NOS and keeping it naturally aspirtated is a plus as well, besides i cant afford a supercharger and all it requires ha. but dont i wish ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

well that changes everything...because basically every thing you do to make it corner better...makes it a slower 1/4 mile car and vice versa
so here ya go, NEW top
1) 2.73 gears
2) full poly kit from energy suspension
3) mega bite jr LCA's

if your looking for 400 plus hp you need to look into a stroker or maybe even a 351w build. i say 351 but im not in the mood to shoot facs out at the moment

They were rated at 225 horsepower and 300 ft lbs of torque from the factory, however 20 years laters and alot of abuse even with the boltons that you have, your car would be lucky to even make anywhere near 200 horespower.. Real Spit. The same goes for all foxes.. I'll pull up some dyno charts to show you what Im saying, I have seen full hci cars with aluminum heads barely make 300 rwhp. which is typical for a stock bottom end 302 with hci.

yes at the crank
they are about 185 at the wheels all stock, and your mods have not added anything really to be honest
the stock induction is good for 300 hp, so adding an intake , or TB, or MAF doesnt make you a single thing
if peple have proven they got faster by doing so, what they had was broken or improperly working

a stroker and power adder will get 500
HCI or really just a good ported HI combo with 1.7's and stock cam with a power adder will get you 400
i havent dyno'd my car but it should be about 400 crank HP, not RWHP
i have eddy heads w/ 1.7's port matched to a true gt40 tubular ported , 65tb, 76 maf, 24lb'ers, 1 3/4" long tubes, and 2 1/2" back non catted with a 125 dry shot

Can you break into 11's with that setup?
And to the op it's guna take heads cam n intake + s-trim if u really want 400 at the wheels with your 5.0
