Ok,
My best time is 12.68 and best mph is 111mph. Best 60 feet is 1.75

Here is a full list of my mods:

* Stock 1993 shortblock.
* TFS twisted wedge heads(ported.around 250cfm on the intake at .500)
* FMS F-303 cam.
* JP double roller timing chain.
* Compcams hardened push rods.
* Crane 1.6 roller rockers
* GT-40 intakes (lower port match)
* Professional products 70mm throttle body.
* C&L 73mm maf.
* MAC cold air intake.
* #24 injectors.
* Kirban fuel pressure regulator
* 255 lph hp fuel pump.
* Mac pulleys kit.
* Mac 1 5/8 equal lenth shorty headers.
* Flowtech 2 1/2 h-pipe.
* Dynomax superturbo mufflers.
* Mac 2 1/2 chrome tail-pipes.
* Centerforce dual friction clutch.
* FMS aluminum quadrant.
* BBK firewall adjuster.
* Mac short shifter.
* 3.73:1 gears set.
* FMS subframe connectors.
* Aftermarket Controls arms.
* 4 cyl. front coil springs.
* delete front swaybar.
* MT E/T street 26x10.5x15

I want to keep it N/A.Maybe a new cam? Does an Edel performer RPM intake can help to? I saw a fiew guys here going 115 mph with a similar combo...


Thanks!

Bumped the timing any? I don't know if that would gain 4mph or not, but it's free to try.

I would suggest a better cam, better intake and more gear. I would start with more intake and gear.

I would run a Holley or maybe the RPM. The RPM would need the lower ported, not sure about the Holley.

Your MPH is good for much better ET, you must not have the best 60'? What is your suspension?

What does your car weight?

I had a similar combo a few years back and went 12.00 @ like 110-111. but my car was like 2900 with driver at the time. 1.62-1.65 60 ft

Try the Holley Sytemax 2 and i would also trade the 73mm MA for the 76 w/ the power pipe.

Get rid of that intake for something bigger, and like mentioned above maybe a better cam, or even a custom grind from a reputable shop.

If you want everything out of it, go with some long tubes, and straight thru mufflers. Car also looks like it needs more gear. With a better cam get that car up in the RPMs and with a set of 4.10-4.30s it should run hard.

like what everyone else said more gear, cam, full length headers, and intake would be the things I would look at buying.

If it was me I might do some tune work before I buy anything, you might be able to hit 115 with out buying anything. I know it will not help your MPH much but it would be nice to see you 60fting in the 1.6X range (gear would help that)

what I am just trying to say make sure you stuff it toltaly tweeked out before you spend 500 bucks on an intake.

RPM intake and a pro M 80mm maf (may be worth .2 over a crappy 73 c&l).

That should get you close to 115, i've seen less go faster.

Suspension is way over-rated.

When i had this guys combo a few years back i didnt have one single suspension mod. i was running 10 year old shocks and struts. all factory control arms and springs.

As a matter of fact i dont have any suspension now and im in the 10.50-10.60 range every week. Spend your money where is matters. If you wanna go fast spend money to go fast. If you want you car to ride like a cadillac when do that.

RPM.

The II is for larger displacement or supercharged engines.
