Thanks for the replies! Yes, the 360 will be much less expensive for me, which leaves more for other things. I guess when I get the engine here at my house I will be bugging you all for the best build for my needs. I don't want to just start throwing performance parts on it without some thought as to how they will work together.

The guy with the 360 engine says it has J heads and an RV cam. I don't know much about these engines yet, but RV cam sounds as if it is more of a torque monster than a revver. I would like to go somewhere in between I think. Is getting into the 12's without compromising the streetability too much to ask?



Probably won't get there with an RV cam unless you put some juice on it.

12's, as in 12.99 or better, are pretty easy to hit. A comp XE268H cam and a good, well thought out package will get you there. Biggest issue will be heads, IMO.

Get the car to hook, with a 3000 stall and some 3.73-4.10's, and you're there.
