I have to wonder how many of these "street cars" that are running 10's and low 11's are running a nitrous kit to get there? I have the feeling there are at least a few guys here that have outlined their combo, and conveniently left out the 150-shot plate kit. I know Turbo seems to be the best way to go crazy fast and stay streetable, but lets stay within the budget of the average street / strip guy. Of the guys driving to and from the track, and getting deeper than 11.90, who can claim 100% N.A.? We know the Red 63 is on the list..... Who else?

My mid 9s are on motor only, and on pump premium from Sparky's fireworks.  I have driven it to the track, but normally trailer it.

Drove it to work tonight. 6pm to 6am. 4 1/2 hours to go.
Were you at I-57 last Sunday? If it was your car there, it's awsome, when it came idling my pit it was so quiet. Then i saw it run low 6's  , I about fell off the trailer. Honestly I thought you were spraying it. Does it have a 8 3/4 in it? I couldn't tell. from where I was standing. I'd put a bar in it too, but thats just me. Very cool fast car  .
I drive mine to work, cruzin and have driven it to get groceries on a couple of occasions. It's been mini tubbed, has the frame tied and has a roll bar. I hated to put the bar in it but the thought something happening at the track (1/8) at 104-106 mph without one didn't appeal to me. It has Kirkey seats, at the time I couldn't find a decent set of factory low backs. The ones I found were $400 and meeded recovered, the covers were another $400. It also has a glass hood and front bumper.
It has full interior, factory gauges, factory glass, good heater, wipers work well, the map, glove box and trunk lights all work.
It runs high 6.50s in the 1/8 with 1.38 60's on street radials without the exhaust on it. It's powered by a pump gas 408, a 9.5" converter in a 727 with a 4.10 geared Dana and weighs 3260#.
I'm probably disqualified from being a "street car" (at least thats what one of the local gm guys said) because I don't have a horn. I had to remove them to install a puke bottle. If I ever find a beep beep horn I'll find a place to put it.
Yup that was me. There was a lot of mopars there that day more then I have seen at I-57 in a while. I did put a roll bar in it. I did not want to but safety first. It does have a 8 3/4 with 35 spline axles and a spool. I looked but could not find a locker for 35 splines. Stock wheel wells just has offset hangers, cal-tracs with mono leafs afco double adjustable shocks in back. I have a tci streetfighter converter 10 inch rated 3500 but flashes to 5k, still tight for street driving to suit me. Its all steel bumpers hood ect. No bottle here just lots of cubes.
Low deck indy aluminum block. 4.5 bore 4.375 stroke 6.535 rod. Diamond dished pistons 16.5 cc. 440-1 heads cnc ported by modern cylinder head 350cc runners 75 cc chambers for 12.2 to 1 compression. Harland sharp 1.6 ration rockers. Isky red zone lifters. Bullet cam 264/274 @ 050 690/690 lift. Tti 2 inch headers gona buy the step headers 2 1/8 some time. Magnaflow mufflers.

Mine is NA and has an 8" Converter and a big nasty roller cam. Its also slower than it should be LOL but I am lining that out. (11.70s)
I think streetable is a matter of opinion or tollerance. Mine is loud, rattles, has no heat or AC and I love it. Sure it would be nice to have overdrive and AC but I have played that game with a mustang. While I miss the comforts of the stang sometimes its just not the same as old school muscle.

It really doesn't matter what you do to get your et's...
What is more interesting is to hear the cam/converter/gear sizes and how loud the vehicles are...
IMO, a real street car would have a little hydrualic roller in the .228 duration range, no more than 3500 stall, around a 3.54 gear with a 30" tire and be super quiet like a factory cadillac and still run 9's!  
Oh wait, that sure does sound like mine!  
Not NA with that cam.  Ron

By all means it is nowhere near the fastest but I feel happy with the performance for what the combo is. Thats all that matters is that you get your car to run good for the combo you have. 
But... mine runs 6.20 in the 1/8th w/ a plate (havent been to the quarter lately) and has/will run mid 10s on motor... all steel except hood, all stock interior w/ exception of race buckets, weights 3300 w/ me in it...
