12's possible?

Its it possible to get into the 12's with a 97 Z with bolt ons including long tubes no cats, 58 mm tb, maf, cai, 1.6 rr, elbow, 4.10s and drag radials? anyone have numbers with this setup, im about to put all of this on my car and im just curious also what would be my 1/8 mile time?

Re: 12's possible?

if the car is tuned well and running as it should, that should be not too hard assuming you can launch the car with the DR's and gears and still manage to keep you 10 bolt in there.lol. its been done a lot. the LT's, gears, DR's and rockers are like 4 of the biggest things you can do and still remain streetable and stockish.hehe. id say a 12 will be a no brainer if you can do sub 2.0 60's.

Re: 12's possible?

i ran a 13.2 with that stuff and stock gears before the cam change, turns out one of the intake lobes on my stock cam was worn down like .150" due to a frozen roller lifter prolly. So if i can run 13.2's on a ****ty 2.1 60' and 7 cylinders you can run 12's for sure, lol.

Re: 12's possible?

as everyone said... yes it's very possible and would be dissapointing if you didn't run a 12.

Depending on your 60ft your 1/8 will be 8.3-8.4 for a high 12 pass.
