what are you running now? how much hp are you making? psi doesnt mean jack ****.

rough figures here, lets assume the car weighs ~2000 pounds, you'd need roughly 250whp to run mid 12's. assuming you can put the power down and drive worth a damn.

back in the day, i would run NOS on my zc, along with a bunch of other bolt on's, my best time was a 13.7@100mph

I did end up getting rid of that swap back in the 90's in favor of a b series, and never looked back

Me thinks that 250 on a stock block - non daily driver - is totally possible.
Not sure how it will last. That will depend a lot on tuning and overall engine condition.
