Definitely not ideal if you want to make N/A power. But that doesn't mean that they can't be fun with some bolt-ons and gears. Full bolt-ons/gears/tune/DRs they *can* crack into the 12s, and that's good enough for many people when it comes to a DD. I would have been more than happy with some LTs and 4.10s in my old car.

Even some of the best drag racers in the country had a hard time getting in the bottom 12s with every N/A modification possible including weight reduction, 4.30 gears, slicks/skinnies, etc. They're slow period.

There was one on that list that they said ran 12.77 on street tires with just bolt-ons (#2). I imagine that was probably a little weight reduction as well, but that's still pretty impressive.

That would've been much better than the T-45 and 3650 5-speed trans. I'm assuming cost had a good bit to do with it, as well as the fact Ford knew people were going to buy them anyway.

I wouldn't call that best drag racers in the country. Also a lot of those setups suck and do not have the new tf heads. At 3k raceweight and tf heads with custom spec cams there is no reason a 2v couldn't see mid too low 11s. I think its pretty badass that the little ole 2v has been 9.72 @ 136 with similar compression and weight as the texas speed stock bottom end ls1 record car of 9.6x.
Low 11's is pushing it even with the new Trick Flow castings. Going to take a very light car, gifted driver, and excellent conditions to accomplish that. Basically all stars in a aligned. lol

There is actually a guy on the Mustang forums with a 2v, it is his drag car but he could easily drive it on the street if he swapped wheels/tires, and he is running a 7.84 @ 86.01 in the 1/8th. In the quarter he runs low 12's.

Notice I said "some of the" best drag racers, and I am not sure how old you are but several of those guys are renowned Mustang drag racers that have been in the scene for a long time.

Right, and my vette went 10.9X@134 BONE STOCK and beat a ZR1 with a professional driver on the way home. ![Icon Lol](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_lol.gif)
Seriously though, @ 3500lbs, it ain't happening. Heck, most cam/bolt-on LS1 F-bodies would be happy to run that number, and they make a good deal more power with similar weight. Sometimes common sense is the best gift one can have.

One notable name that wasn't on that list was Ken Bjonnes... I believe he still holds the record for an N/A 2V. High 10 @ 120mph+. Doesn't seem all that impressive now, but that record was set back in 2004. I think he's doing 5.0 stuff now. Wonder what he could do with a 2V with this new stuff available.
I suppose he'd go substantially quicker now with the new aftermarket castings they have available now.
