how much it cost to run low 12's

[stang2841]

put it this way, IMO i think a fox is the cheapest way for 12's

It's about power to weight ratio ....then getting the thing to hook up

Love my notch

have seen a topic on which a guy for only like 1500 bucks got into the 10's. He striped and gutted his notch, bought a 351 from a lightning for like 700, spend 500 for a little suspension mods and used slicks (fairly new), and a used nitrous kit 300

I thought Lightnings used 5.4L motors, maybe I'm wrong though. Anyway, if he did pick up a running 351W for $700 he got incredibly lucky.

Im just dropping a h/c/i, carb, nitrous 351w in my car. Will it run 12's?

Now they do, but before 96 i believe they were 351w. That is a SUPER DEAL!

Will? HAHA if you can get it to hook up. Depending on your h/c/i choice, you should be in the 12's on motor. With the juice, you should be saying hello to 11's. Depends on your combo.....

Heres my current tally

s/c kit-$1500(brand new)
Bassani L/T, X pipe, flowmaster catback(used) $500
190lph pump-$100
30lbers-$100
slicks-$150
Bov-$20

Total-$2370

Best et as of yet is 12.7@107, with a better rear end gear(2.73's own me) low 12's would easily be achieved, so I guess a ballpark figure to run lows 12's would be $2500 give or take a few hundred

I'm not picking- but you better add another $400-$700 for the rebuild and Kevlar belt that the powerdyne is gonna need soon.
