LMAO. Sounds awesome.
I'm not building mine for the 1/4 mile either per se, but a while back I abitrarily picked 13.5 as a good number for street-usable acceleration (and based on my right-at-14-second runs, and my experience with this car around town, I don't think I'd really get much use out of much more than another 50 hp - which is about what .5 seconds is) but at the same time I don't want to drop below 13.00 because I still want to be able to take the car on the 1/4 and stretch it out all the way. LMAO.
Actually, I'm much more interested in autocross than I am in drag racing. After I get the rebuild finished I'm looking at a complete suspension overhaul. Tubular k-member/control arms, coil overs, etc.
And as soon as the rear end blows up (its inevitable with the stock 10 bolt) I'm going to be putting in a 12 bolt.
