Having put a stock 109 motor in the 10's two years ago with just bolt-ons... I'm pretty confident I have a very good foundation to work with since buying my most recent GN.
I'm curious what kind of uphill challenge I face, if I shoot for a 9-sec timeslip.
I'm sure a bigger turbo would help, but I know Russ and Grumpy have used a similar sized unit on the 9-sec combo they have.
I fully understand the importance of good 60ft times... and without a transbrake'd TH400, I know the ET potential will suffer until that swap happens... that said, I'd be happy with 9-sec MPH for the time being... somewhere North of 135+ would be nice.
Nitrous is not out of the question... and is probably 'gonna be on the car eventually anyway.
Any advice on my combination is appreciated. Bigger turbo ? bigger cam ? and obviously a front mount is at the top of the list of things to do.
