That time is pretty much right on with just headers and M6. My buddy is running consistent 12.7s with the same setup. Next mod? How much money do you have <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

How about drag radials? Maybe a better clutch? I think my next mod is a Ram clutch.

My car with the mods (with stock rear) you seen in my sig, ran 12.60's-12.70's on street tires, put a 12-bolt in with 4.10's and nitto 555r's, she ran in the 12.20's. I would get a gear, and computer program so you can tune the motor and dial it in. You can get a bit out of these, just by playing with fuel, timing, etc...but the gear and tires made a world of difference for me. Good luck! <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

Mine is starting to slip on launches where the car hooks hard. I don't totally dump the clutch, though, because I'm afraid of breaking the stock 10 bolt. I kinda slip it out quickly. Hard hook = smokin clutch. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Better than a broke 10 bolt, though!

save up and get a 12 bolt if you already have a cam and springs, do the install yourself and take advantage of the power with the 12 bolt.
