You should be able to run 10's pretty easy w/o any...however boost is by far the best way to go and possibly cheaper in the long run. You could build a 10 second motor add a few lbs of boost and have a 9 second car easy. N2O is the easiest, S/C vs turbos as mentioned S/C has cost up fornt but are pretty simple to install. A turbo requires some extensive fab work. FWIW I picked up a NOS kit for my 6-pack, and it willl be going on soon. It will have me way down in the 10's I'd guess, I'm running a stock stroke 440-6 w/ ported Stage VI heads and a small solid roller...
