What's the fastest lt1 way to 11.9s?

I want to make some long term goals for my car. I think 11.99 is a good place for mine. I want to hit this time and still have a reliable car. I think its a pretty good goal for an street a4. What would be the cheapest way to get in the ballpark? Oh yeah btw, hoping for this time N/A.

Of course id need a torque converter and i know boltons but whats next? Is suspension very important for this goal? Whats the ballpark of hp that i would need for this?

Stall, slicks, 150shot. Yup, that's about all you need.

An LE1 setup with LTs, a stall converter and the usual bolt ons should get you there.

I've seen M6 cars with ported heads and a Hot cam run 12 flat.

5000 stall, weight reduction, slicks, 4.56 gears will almost get you there on a stock motor probably.

REALISTICALLY, h/c package, mid sized stall, tires.

Yeah it also has a 3 speed and one hell of a suspension like all of Joes cars. The man can tune a motor and a suspension and that's what makes them fly, the 3 speed probably helps some too.
