funny how myths come about.. been racing Buicks since 86.. 11/12 sec cars are not goin to twist the car in half. Our 87 GN does have small cracks BUT show me another car that can run 9/10s that don't have a minor crack or to . These are 25 year old PERFORMANCE cars

Assuming you already HAVE a scantool of some kind, here.

Razors Alky kit and turn up the boost. That should take you into the low 12's all day long.

I was running 13.2 ish @ 101 MPH (17# boost) ... added the Alky went 12.5 @107 MPH ( 21# boost) at a track notorious for traction problems. No better bang for your buck, IMHO.

Don't forget, when you add all of the go fast goodies your going to need a scanmaster/powerlogger/wideband/ a way to read fuel pressure...or you will get to start all over.

I have a t-top car with no braces running 9's. No cracks here.
