Need to get in the 12's

My 60'time was 1.98,and my quarter was 13.33@103.7mph on BFG's.I want to get in the 12's without a TC or Cam cause I'm waiting to buy my rearend for those mods.I can't use LT's cause of emissions.I just need about 20-25 horsepower for that .3.Any advice would be nice.

12's are hard to crack. IMO you need to cut a 1.80 60'. I would add LCA reloaction brackets. Drop the rear tire pressure to 14lbs. Remove the front sway bar, rear seat, and pass. seat. If you spend a little more go for skinney front tires and wheels. Hope for a good air day and go for it. Good luck.

Pardon me for jumping in but what do LCA Relocation Brackets do? I have just purchased Lakewood LCA"s and maybe I should be looking into these brackets.

Thanks,
George

These brackets attach to the rear and lower the control arm connecting points.

I want 12s real bad too. My best is a 13.40 @ 106.3, but with a cut out I may be a tenght or so closer. Then the sway bar and back seats are gone.
