It can be done, but sorry to say it aint' going to be cheap. Your not going to make the power you need with a stock block, so there goes 2k right there. $3500 for a blower, another $1500 for an out of the box type head with roller rockers, and we haven't even gotten into the injectors and othe miscellaneous stuff to make it work. And you need to ditch the 5 speed......a c-4 will get you there a lot easier.
Honestly, the cheapest way to do it is build a 351 based motor and throw a carburator and a shot of nitrous on it. Probably not what you had in mind, but going fast is never cheap.
yeah im working on all that right now, it sucks. my buddy drove his TT C5 vette down last year and ran a 9.90 at 145. they were flipping out about it. it looks bone stock on M/T drag radials. he was wearing jeans, a t shirt and flip flops!!! i dont know how he got pass tech, but hey it was atco. lol!cobra93 said:NHRA competition license, requisite safety equipment (the double layer fire suites are heavy and very warm in the hot weather), proper certified chassis which will need to pass inspection, signed doctors certificate every two years.
