full boltons, serious weight reduction with a 12 bolt and you might have a shot. or like was suggested just get some nitrous.

Headers, ORY, ported TB, LS6 intake, about a 3600 stall, drag radials, and a dyno tune and you should see either low low 12's or high 11's.

Do alot of searching and reading on here. Tons of good info all over this site, so take advantage.

Proper grammar will net more serious responses.

You want to run 11s, it will take some internal work or a big shot of juice.

Also, skip the diablo chip. You're better off with a dyno tune if you're gonna do internal stuff like a cam.

I think that 290 hp is a little bit low...but with those bfg's be careful with your launches...if you launch too hard and hook..and you will with those bfg's...you don't want to break your 10 bolt

Well I would start with full sentences, proper grammer, sentence structure, and learn how to spell before working on the car at all. You're clearly a ******* idiot.

i was going to bitch about the hood talk/texting grammar, but people have covered that.

but to answer the question, built trans, heads/cam package, a good stall, maybe some 3.73s and a bottle. oh and pray your 10 bolt doesnt break. if it does, slap a 12 bolt in that bitch. some suspension wouldnt hurt, and neither would some weight reduction.

In the words of Samuel L in Pulp Fiction

I cant wait to see what he says after he sees all these posts making fun of him

Hopefully he will take the advice....about the grammer. Then the mods.
