If i were you (seriously. i concidered doing it myself) The first thing you need to do is strip all the crap out of that car you dont need. Go through the whole thing, taking out all kinds of stuff that isnt immediately important. You do that, and the car will be an Animal.


The biggest difference between adding hp vs. taking off weight.... HP makes it faster, Weight effects EVERYTHING, handling, speed, milage etc.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
