12 bolt or lt headers and intake

Right now I have about $1500 and was warndering witch one will lower my ET the most and witch would you all get first. The 12 bolt will have 4.10 or 4.11. all I have as far as mods is slp loudmouth, 315/35 drag raidals, and a spec stage 4 clutch
any sugestions would be great

If you're that serious about drag racing (as in frequently), I'd go with the 12 bolt. However, I don't know of one in the $1500 ballpark.. you may want to wait until that number goes a bit higher. Unless you've got a hook-up or something.

hey, just a thought, you might also want to consider a cam, such as the hotcam and some long tubes. If you are going to be drag racing frequently in the future, or plan to do lots of sidestepping the clutch launches, especially if you mod the car more, your ten bolt will most likely give out. At what point this will happen I cannot tell you. So, if you're infrequently racing, and want a little street performance to boot, go for engine mods, but if you want to build a drag machine, you may not see that much performance increase from a 12 bolt, with the exception of the gears, but that will keep your rear end from going south while you're on the track.

sorry I ment to add that I would wait a nother check or too to get the rear end. If I need to. My plans are to get into the mid to low 10's some time in the future but as for right know I want whatever lower my ET the most.
