Any chance this car can get in the 12's? It will be steet driven occasionally and go to the track a few times a year,any advice on my combos will be greatly appreciated!

hi
that combo should easy do some 12 sec passes !

I would exchange those pistons for something else to get the compression up and get some head porting work done or aftermarket heads so that thing can breathe. The 509 is a pretty big cam for a hydraulic, basically 252* @050 I think. You will need some high compression and decent head flow because that thing will want to rev. RPM intake for sure. If all you want it 12's, I would step down to a smaller cam to get something more street friendly.

what pistons? how far in the hole? Basic rebuild on the heads?I'm thinking the compression will be kind of low for that cam. there's a few current threads on that cam right now with some combo's and such, do a search. i'm sure others will chime in.

should do 12's, I'd try a 750DP carb. That cam isn't going to pull a ton of vacuum. What is the 10" convert? If it's over 3200 you should be good. I'd use a RPM.
