I have no idea with this setup. I keep hearing different things from different people. I think it should run a low 13 for sure, but are 12's a option or not?
Keep in mind that I retain AC and PS. No weight reduction and its a convertible.
Heres the mods.

351w Crate engime -- Edelbrock Torker II --
Trick Flow Twisted Wedge Heads -- FRPP F303 Camshaft

MSD 6AL - MSD dizzy - Accel Wires - Holley 750 DP
CGS subframe connectors -- Holley Blue FP --

I would say with your mods it should be very easy. No problem.

Any idea what you think I should be hitting then? People have been telling me that since I run the stock t5 tranny with no suspension mods (excpet subframe connectors) That I wont be able to get into the 12's.

I would say that low 12's should be no problem on Drag Radials. Mid to high 12's on regular street tires depending on your driving skills and also if your car is tuned right.

i'll have to agree with 89sleeper. i don't see why the stock T5 and stock suspension parts would hold you back from 12's. you'll just never know how long the T5 will last.

With the 408/444 rear wheel #'s you "claim" to make 12's should be a breeze

I ran 12.9 on 17" street radials with a LOT less power! You should.
